The Elite Alien Pearl uses a medium RG core combined with a reactive pearl cover. This ball is clean through the front and creates a medium read of the midlane. The extra length gives it the ability to store its energy for the back end on most medium to dry oil patterns.

All three testers were most comfortable on the medium test pattern. As strongly as this ball turned the corner, even Stroker could get it to recover from nearly anywhere on the pattern.

Our dry test pattern was enjoyed just as much by Stroker and Tweener. Because of the shiny box finish, the Alien Pearl will still provide the length needed for lower and medium rev players
