This is a very well done video. By studying this I have increased my game from 115 to 190!!!!! I am impressed by the bowlers humbleness as they compete. They are enjoyable and pleasant to learn from. Thank you again..

AMAZING VID. Thank you! Now wannabe bowlers such as myself get to see the different types of releases. It seems so effortless.

Slowing the entire process down makes it look so easy. Wish that were the case.

Awesome video especially the ones where the ball is "plowing" thru the oil. Greats shots on the realeases of the players. Many thanks for posting... Tom/RI...

i particularly loved the last bit of the video. what a beautiful girl!!

Amazing. Now I can get an idea of how ball tracks look in the fronts and make better adjustments.

everything is beautiful in slow

The low camera angle really shows the topography of the lane surface well. Notice the big dip near the end of the lane on a couple of shots?

What shoes are those at 2:42?

somebody knows which oil pattern they played on?

@20alphabet Yeah technology has really progressed but it's still a challenging sport. If you miss your mark with these high performance bowling balls, you're in for a big old split or some spare that's not too fun to pick up.

They make it seem so epic

the lanes are flat to within 0.004 of a Inch...or 1mm so no big dip near the end as someone suggests.

@20alphabet name some examples... I'm a newbie at bowling and would like to see some good early day stuff.

WOW you can see the oil moving around, great video.

Nice slow motion work. I had some professional video work done to capture some high speed footage of release that I uploaded but the quality isn'y quite as high as the quality here (although my fps is higher so maybe thats why). What fps were you capturing at to get this footage without having to use professional lighting and all? We had to use a three piece light setup to get our footage.

Looks great. Amazing video. Anyone notice how the lefty threw it left of his old oil line and still struck?

@20alphabet right.....and what would u consider to be proficient?

@7:16 Keven Spacey?

@MegaJohnryder That's just the reflection of the ball.

05:36 you can see the oil on the lane and how it spreads from the ball

This isn't a nitpick, just an observation: The background music just sounds better for making out.

так здорово!

i like how u can see the ball searching its way through the oil 1:19

who's the chick at the end :)

13:22-13:24 best footage. You actually see the ball split the oil.

great ending with the hottie in glasses

ah c'mon, the country it's named Chile, not Chili

@Tikitacotata He's just an old man who was never good at bowling, so he blames equipment and refuses to acknowledge his game is far worse than these players.

Amazing how these examples are now considered as proficient bowling. Sad, really. Technology has indeed replaced technique in this once great game.

Amazing that these guys think they're good. Especially when they lack any semblance of technique nearly perfected by the real bowlers (pros of the 30s-70s). The smug, self-satisfied look on these faces just isn't justified. I know, they know nothing else, but still.
