The Track Paragon Shadow is the second hybrid-covered ball to enter the Paragon line. Its coverstock has been updated to QR-12 Hybrid (HK22C), which comes out of the box at a 500/1500 SiaAir finish. This cover surrounds the asymmetrical I-Core 3.0 design that has been used in all of the Paragon releases. This combination provides much more traction and total hook compared to the Paragon Hybrid, along with more angularity and total hook than the original Paragon. Bowlers looking for a ball that is more responsive to the dry than the Criterion will like what this one offers.
Cranker liked how much downlane motion he had with the Paragon Shadow on the fresh heavy oil pattern. The ball had no trouble picking up in the midlane and turning over strong at the breakpoint. With the more angular change of direction downlane, he was able to swing the ball more to the right than he could with balls that were smoother in shape. He really liked how well the ball went through the pins because of its added downlane motion. He was able to migrate farther left with no problem...
