Hammer Ocean Vibe Bowling Ball Features:
The new Ocean Vibe should be a very popular release; it performs as you’d expect from a Vibe and looks fantastic. Next to the Black Widow, the Vibe has been the most anticipated and requested ball to bring back. Hammer spent a considerable amount of time on this Vibe to ensure it’s the ball Hammer fans would love, and they are pretty sure they nailed it!

This ball, for this price point? RIDICULOUS. This is pristine low end reactive ball reaction wrapped in a silky smooth blue color. Super clean through the fronts. Never over reads the midlane, and when it comes off the spot? Off with authority!!! I absolutely love this ball. I see a lot of score coming out if this piece

The Vibe series makes it return and it sure is a great one. Great shelf appeal and even better performance. This symmetrical pearl floats through the fronts with ease and shows great continuation off the end of the pattern. This vibe will get the most use on high friction surfaces and light to medium oil patterns for me

The vibe is back! The ocean vibe is a ideal light-medium oil Pearl ball for me. As with most vibe it’s predictable motion makes this an easy ball to throw on shorter or dryer conditions. The pearl cover stock let’s the vibe get down the lane with ease even when they are burnt up but the core gives me a quick change of direction and plenty of continuation. If you loved the old vibe line or have a hole in your bag for a shinny light oil ball you should definitely consider added the ocean vibe. Also worth noting the colors pop very well on this ball and good shelf appeal is never a bad thing.

Ocean Vibe – the classic Vibe line is back. Great ball for those medium to dry lane conditions. Strongest backending Vibe released to date. Best used when the lanes are breaking down later in league or towards the end of tournament blocks. Very clean through the front part of the lane strong reacting motion down lane.

Amazing Price Point and a Totally Underestimated Ball….The New Hammer Ocean Vibe
The Ocean Vibe has to be one of the most underestimated balls from Hammer. This ball is predictable, clean and provides any bowler consistency on various lane conditions. The Ocean Vibe works very well on medium to dry lane conditions. The pearl coverstock allows any bowler to get the ball down lane, even when the heads are pretty dry or totally gone. This ball is very good and allows bowlers at all levels to see the ball shape and make adjustments. As this is my first Vibe I have ever thrown, I am totally impressed on how clean and predictable this ball really is. I strongly recommend this ball to bowlers at all levels. You will not be disappointed on this ball’s performance.

Blue, Red, Black, Whatever the color, this Ocean Blue vibe continues to impress. Reads a little earlier than some of the others i’ve had, but overall very angular for me and it has a steady spot in my bag. Also, this vibe takes surface adjustments really well. Some of the OG vibes, once I cracked the box finish, I could never get the motion I was looking for on the lane. This is one, great adjustment from Brunswick on the playability factor!
