First Impressions
The Aloha Breeze 2 draws every eye with its classic design. At its center works a symmetrical core with a high RG and a comparatively low differential. This core is wrapped in a reactive pearl coverstock finished to a high gloss. The high RG makes the core rotate very late, which in combination with the smooth cover should let the ball glide effortlessly through the heads and produce a very smooth, predictable motion.
Comparison
Compared directly to strong solid balls, the Breeze 2 grabs extremely late and offers a considerably more stable, tamer reaction at the breakpoint. Against the Storm Match Pearl, the Breeze 2 behaves very similarly on dry lanes. As soon as the transition sets in and the front part of the lane dries up completely, this ball is in its element. It wants dry boards in order to carry its gentle dynamics through to the pins without overhooking at the breakpoint.
On the Lanes
The Aloha Breeze 2 finds its preferred territory on extremely dry lane conditions or in the hands of beginners. It is the perfect choice if you need a ball on completely burned-up patterns that slides easily through the heads and produces a steady, small hook toward the pocket. The weak reaction helps keep you from throwing past the breakpoint. The ball should secure carry at low ball speeds. On fresh oil, however, it just slides through.
