With its combination of a low-flaring cut-diamond core and the Xtra strength Rhino Pro Reactive cover, the Pearl Viper offers the power and control needed to conquer tough, spotty, or sport conditions.

MORO DESIGN

The Pro Release is a multiposition wrist support. It will adjust in the two major wrist directions, allowing its user to create and maintain a wrist position for the best scoring roll. The Pro Release--the choice of better bowlers everywhere--is very comfortable, and the manufacturing and materials are 100% made in the USA. See Moro Design's advertisement in this issue or call (607) 272-0591.

ROBBY'S REVS

Robby's Revs I is the standard in lightweight, adjustable power. It features extended finger support that provides maximum power for oilier lane conditions. The shorter design of Robby's Revs II [left] provides medium power for light-to-medium oil conditions. Lateral adjustments allow your hand to be in position to alter the amount of forward roll and spin on the ball. Finally, the feather-light duraluminum of Robby's Revs III [left] is a break-through in wrist support, because it conforms to your exact needs. The extended index finger support accentuates the wrist rotation through the release to create increased length and back-end hook.
