COMMENTS
The Allure is part of the first Ebonite release produced by Brunswick. The cover is Traxion SF, and it’s finished at 3000, and then Crown Factory Compound is applied. The Allure Core is a new design. The first thing I noticed when I opened the box was that the ball was not as heavily polished as I would expect with a pearl. In fact, it almost looked as if the cover had a haze on it. When I threw it, the Allure had a strong resemblance to the Futura, but with more length. It had the same heavy forward roll and smooth change of direction at the break point. Compared to the Omni, I have to line up about 4 to 5 boards further right on the approach and 2 to 3 boards further right on the lane. The Allure gets easy length and offers very good control of the pocket. Those with rev dominant games will find the Allure to be very effective on most if not all league conditions and broken down sport shots.
