BOWLING BALL INFOS

First Impressions
The Magic Action from Ebonite is an absolute prime example of control and perfect readability on the lane. Driven by the proven Magic Symmetric core, this ball offers very balanced and harmonious core dynamics with a 2.53 RG and a 0.048 differential. Combined with the precisely tuned solid reactive cover, the result is a surface that interacts with the oil extremely predictably and consistently. The 2000 Abralon finish purposefully ensures that the ball picks up friction early and controls the midlane securely, without ever coming across as unpredictable. Even its outward appearance conveys great stability and reliability, qualities that carry over seamlessly into the actual roll through the heads. The overall construction is designed to give you clear feedback about the condition of the lane at all times.
Comparison
Looking at the Magic Action directly against the Storm Phaze II, its much stronger focus on control and predictability becomes very clear. The Storm Phaze II does offer a slightly more angular motion off the backend, but it can react too sensitively or overreact on difficult oil patterns. This is exactly where the Magic Action scores, with its steady, smooth and continuous arc toward the pins. Where the Phaze II tends to miss the breakpoint, the Magic Action delivers the traction needed in the pocket to stay safely on course. It closes the gap between extremely strong balls and weaker models absolutely ideally. For bowlers who like the Phaze II but are looking for a calmer, safer option, this is the logical choice.
On the Lanes
On the lane this ball proves to be the perfect companion for medium to heavy oil patterns, especially on typical house shots or demanding sport patterns. It lets you get through the boards reliably and develops a strong but wonderfully rounded hook that leads straight into the pocket. The smooth reaction to the friction on the backend produces outstanding carry, since the ball transfers a great deal of energy into the pins instead of wasting it prematurely with an overly harsh change of direction. Once the transition sets in, the ball can still be used very effectively with small adjustments to your line before a change becomes necessary. It is a true benchmark for anyone who wants to build their game methodically, and it should deliver consistently high scores.
