900 Global Eternity Bowling Ball

The Eternity has a low RG value of 2.49 a medium differential of 0.050 and a medium intermediate differential of 0.014. 900 Global came out with a brand-new Epoch Core that was inspired from the original Break Core that was used in so many previous Global releases, Wrapped in the S84 Pearl Response Cover. The intermediate differential has been lowered on the core as compared to Break core to prevent the ball from losing energy and locking up. The core/cover combination should give an earlier and more aggressive shape into the pocket than the Realities and Zen. The S84 Pearl Response cover has increased the pore size to make it cleaner through the front and dig into the oil in the midlane lane and strong off the spot in the backend. Making the Eternity to cover a broad spectrum of oil conditions. I did a ball comparison to the 900 Global Altered Reality and the 900 Global Zen at 42 ft house shot, 25 ml of oil after the league was done. The layout chosen 35 x 4 3/4 x 15. In comparison to the 900 Global Altered Reality, the Eternity starts up quicker and is more aggressive off the spot verses the Altered Reality that’s a pinch cleaner and more rounded off the spot. Through the shots you will see how the Eternity and the Altered Reality are very similar even going 5 and 3 left they both keep up with each other. In comparison to the 900 Global Zen, The Zen has a big Mediate core and very close RG and differential numbers of the Eternity. The Zen as you see is very smooth through the fronts and mids and gradually climbs the hill to the pocket not as sharp as the Eternity. Did a shot here moving 5 and 3 left and Zen kept up with the Eternity. As per the surface adjustments, the Eternity at box surface is 500>2,000>4000, reacta gloss which will go really long but will be great on the medium to dry conditions. At 3,000 the Eternity blends the lane better and is not as sharp off the spot as box surface which will give you a little more forgiveness in the pocket. In the bag, will be the Reality, Eternity, Storm Absolute, Storm Hyroad Pearl

900 Global Eternity Review compared to Zen Specs:14lb RG 2.51 Diff .044 Cover: S84 Response pearl Reactive Core: Epoch Asymmetric If you like the zen you will love this its earlier and more downlane shape it’s right in between the zen and altered reality. I compared my Eternity to my zen which was one of my favorites I can start out with the Eternity and ball down to my zen . The Eternity has become a stable in my bag if you don’t have one go get it https://youtu.be/QgY0piRM9sk

The newest addition to the 900 Series in the Global Line is the Eternity and it’s been extremely impressive thus far. I was fortunate enough to do a ball video at the Storm plant showcasing the Eternity, so if you’d like to see my video review, check it out on YouTube. Not only are the colors extremely appealing, but the performance of this ball is great. With the new Epoch asymmetric core wrapped with the S84 pearl coverstock, the Eternity provides high performance and a ton of power going through the pins. I’ve drilled one so far and absolutely love it. It’s mapped out as 6 x 4 x 2 3/4.. This puts the pin above my middle finger and mass bias just to the right of my thumb. The closest ball to compare this to is the Altered Reality which was another home run in the 900 Global line. In my current arsenal, I’ve seen success using the Eternity when I need to create shape down lane. The pearl coverstock allows the ball to fly through the front part of the lane, dig in the mid-lane, then change direction nicely in front of the pins. When my Reality or Exotic Gem aren’t creating enough shape down lane, the Eternity is the ball I go to and it’s perfect. Go drill one!

I wasn't sure when I fist bought this ball if I liked it . Threw it on the ball spinner and hit it with 3000 abralon and the ball is a beast . My last 3 sets are 715,705, and 878 with scores of 299,300,279

The 900 Global Eternity features the new Epoch Core as an upgrade and replacement of the Altered Reality. Wrapped in the S84 pearl coverstock, the Eternity offers a significant amount of traction and response to friction. I drilled my Eternity 4.75x4x4, which is the same layout I have on my Reality. I was surprised at how fast this ball come off the spot, and it just keeps on going. The Eternity lives up to its name on how many boards it covers for me. I can see this ball being used on medium shots that have significant urethane carry down, or I can see it being used on longer patterns that require less surface. This ball is going to be fairly versatile on several conditions for me, and will be incredibly useful for those that have lower rev rates. Comparing the Eternity to the Storm Infinite Physix, the Eternity hooks 2-3 feet later and is much more angular. The Infinite Physix offers midline traction and smoother ball reaction.

The overall strength of the Eternity took me by surprise. This is a ball that, despite having a shiny finish, absolutely needs oil in the front part of the lane to be successful. With that being said, the first game and set I shot with this ball was 300 and 815, so I very much love the reaction of this ball when my house shot is fresh. It has a lot of midlane roll, but still continues all the way through the pin deck in a very impressive manner. For my house shot, this is the strongest ball in my bag currently, and I follow it up with the Zen and Revenant.

900 Global Eternity Layout: 5 x 4 x 2 Storm Pin Buffer Layout Rev Rate: 325 rpm, 7 degree of axis tilt, 40 degree of axis rotation Testing information: 41 foot THS (medium to light volume) Bowling Center: Fulton Bowling Center Kegel Machine – Brunswick Anvilane The 900 Global Eternity utilizes the new Epoch core and S84 pearl reactive coverstock. The cover is the same cover used in the Altered Reality. 900 Global changed the red/pink color of the Altered with a purple in the Eternity. The ball looks great and performs great. The Altered for me rolled a little early so didn’t have much left on the back end. The Eternity is a touch easier through the front part of the lane so it has more backend motion for me. The Eternity will be a step down from the Reality or Gem. Visit your local Storm VIP Pro Shop! #Stormnation #SquadRG

900 Global Eternity Cover: S84 Response™ Pearl Reactive Core: Epoch™ (Asymmetrical) Color: Neon Purple/Black/Silver Review: Finally, a suitable spec replacement to the Altered Reality which got taken from us way too soon! For those of you who were fortunate enough to throw the Altered Reality, you will expect much of the same with this core and cover combination. We drilled this ball with our normal layout: tweener, 350-375 revs, 16.5mph, layout of choice is 4x4x2 (pin is above bridge). For us the Eternity fits right in between our Exotic Gem and out Absolute. The Exotic Gem is a touch earlier and a little more overall. The Eternity is ever so slightly sooner than the absolute and just a tad more overall. We tried some different cover combinations to see how this ball would react without the reacta gloss and we were very surprised. Taking off the shine really opened up the lane for us, almost infinitely. If you like to move left this ball will work for you too. With its versatility we see this ball being in many bags, league bowlers and tournament players too!

900 Global Eternity Coverstock: S84 Responsive Pearl Reactive Finish: Reacta Gloss Core: Epoch RG: 2.49 Differential: 0.050 Int Diff: 0.014 Layout: 5 1/2 x 5 x 5 - 2LS Layout Extras: 2 1/8 Finger Depth, "X" - 4 1/2 D and 1 Inch Left Tester: PAP 6 1/2 R, 1 1/4 D Review: The Eternity takes the well crafted cover design from the Altered Reality and increases the microscopic pore size for this ball. Cover S84 Response Pearl Reactive = Proven winner, Core Epoch Asymmetric = 900 Global history with a caveat (The intermediate differential has been reduced to prevent the ball from “locking up” or losing energy too quickly). Remember the Black Ops? Miss the success of the Altered? Look no further. Recent MatchMakers I worked at are showing the Eternity is a top choice for bowlers. For my review I tested the ball on two fresh house shots at two different centers along with the Altered Reality. The Eternity is a nice upgrade, not missing a beat. It is important to note I used a 5 1/2 x 5 x 5 - 2LS layout which is well suited to handle wet/dry conditions we see in our league environments. For me, the Eternity did not require any surface adjustments on the two house patterns I tested it on. I do not mind the Reacta Gloss oob finish and will evaluate over the next several weeks. I was most impressed that the ball easily glides through the front part of the lane and was very balanced in terms of hook off the spot and entering the roll phase. Many times you'll see asyms "quit" and roll weaker off the spot then we like to see. The Eternity does not do that and should provide a nice range of angles to attack the pocket. Compared to the Altered Reality, I feel both balls are very similar. The Altered was a little stronger and a bit tougher to control at times with my overall slower ball speed. In all honesty, it is splitting hairs. The Reacta Gloss finish on the Eternity has its advantages in terms of helping create length and I'm finding good control.

Global Eternity Ball Specs: Coverstock S84 Pearl Reactive Epoch Core (Asymmetrical) Finish Reacta Gloss Polished Layout 4 x 4 2” Pin Buffer Bowler Specs: Right Hand. PAP 5” Over 1/2 up Rev Rate 300. Tilt 20. Speed at release 17 Review: The Global Eternity reminds me a lot of the Altered Reality. The difference I see is that the Eternity may read a bit sooner and be a bit more forgiving of bad shots. The cover of the Eternity is easily altered. (No pun intended) I thought the box Reacta Gloss cover was good but I put the ball on the spinner and went 500, 1000 then step two till it shined up nicely. This gave the ball a bit better read for me but was not a big difference from box. I also later wet sanded the Reality with 2000 Abralon for a slicker pattern and it worked very well. I also liked how the ball visually looked with a matte surface. This ball fits under my Realty Check but well above my Revenant in total hook. The Eternity has been another popular ball at our shop and seems to be predictable and forgiving in performance. Summary: The Eternity is very versatile. The Eternity nicely has the feel of the Altered Reality The Eternity is a stronger work horse ball for me.
