The Track Paradox is flat out one of the best balls I have ever thrown. The ball is marketed as being a strong rolling ball in the front of the lane, the mid-lane and the back end…and it is 100% accurate!
My Paradox is drilled with the pin above the bridge, the CG is about 4†below the pin and the MB about 1†right of my thumb. The ball does not do a lot of skidding through the front of the lane, picking up a roll pretty quickly. It reads the mid-lane EXTREMELY well, transitioning strongly into an incredible roll to and through the pins. The coverstock ABSOLUTELY needs oil – so I would recommend this for house shots and longer sport patterns. I am planning on smoothing out the 3000-grit surface to see if I can have a bit more control on medium patterns.
The last time I saw a ball roll like this was with my ORIGINAL Virtual Gravity back in 2010-11. Thus, I highly recommend this ball to anyone interested in having that type of ball in your arsenal - and I would think that would be just about everyone…

So, I got my hands on 1 of these and was able to try it out yesterday.
And let me 1st say that I wouldn't even consider this piece because its just looks way to strong.
I'm about 16.5 and 400 rpm with a medium to medium high track.
I was on a 39' house pattern on high friction surface, I was expecting to throw a few shots and have to put it away because it would be way to strong.
left it OBB finish, pin above fingers approx 5" from PAP
If I didn't see it with my own eyes I wouldn't have believed it.
that ball gets through the heads and is just incredible through the pins
I wasn't incredibly deep, maybe 15 to 5-6or so
If you were able to watch Stefanie Johnson on xtra frame last week PWBA stop, she ran away with the tournament using this piece.
I was planning on doing some testing with it and getting rid of it just because I figured there would be nowhere to throw it
Now, Its for sure staying in my bag.
Had a guy tell me, "That ball carries everything from everywhere"
that about sums it up
And just wait to see whats next.........equally as good if not better out of Hopkinsville!
