Sometimes the lanes hook more than expected. This is where the Ride steps in. The highly polished Reactor Hybrid material refuses to acknowledge friction in the front part of the lane. The Cruiser Core is a consistent, reliable, and predictable shape that doesn’t bounce off the dry.

Reactor Hybrid Coverstock
Type
Hybrid Reactive

In use for over a decade, the Reactor coverstock is still going strong. When something has been this successful there is no reason to get rid of it. Reactor material is moderately aggressive, but still offers a fair amount of control without over-reacting on the backend.

Cruiser Core
Storm Cruiser Core

The Cruiser Core is a very long, smoother option which is viable for those looking for more control on the backend. The higher RG and lower differential provides a shape that retains axis rotation without over-reacting as it exits the end of the pattern. This core is perfect for those looking to conquer even the most hooking conditions.
