When we released the Rip’D and Rip’D solid, they were instant successes. Naturally, for the 3rd ball in the line, we wanted to create a ball that combined the best qualities from each of the first two. With the Aggression Pearl CFI Coverstock and three-step 3000 grit finish, this Rip’D will get through the front of the lane with ease, still read the mid-lane and give a strong backend motion.
With Hammer’s patent-pending carbon fiber infused coverstock and outer core.
Hammer Tough Scrub is recommended to keep the Rip'D Pearl performing at its best.

The Rip'd Pearl is a nice compliment to the Rip'd Hybrid and Rip'd Solid. For me, the Pearl reads the mid lane well and is not overly flippy in the back. Out of the box, it's not the Pearl shine that we're used to seeing but this piece will respond well on medium oil patterns. On drier patterns this ball will still be in play but a little shine will give ultimate results.
The Ripd pearl is unique in that it is a pearl finished with some surface. To me, the addition of surface really blended the mids out well, which is something that pearls aren’t generally known for. Not only did it blend the middle part of the lane, it still had a ton of backend motion when it reached the end of the pattern. I see this Ripd come into play when my Ripd hybrid is just not enough on the backend, and my Ripd Solid is just a bit too early. A great tournament piece, and really stands out on house shined up!
