It pairs the same asymmetric Dragon Core with the Scorch Pearl Reactive coverstock at a polished finish, so it gets down the lane cleaner than the solid Black Dragon and then unloads a strong, angular move on medium to heavy oil and transition. The Black Dragon Pearl is the answer when the solid Black Dragon starts hooking too early. The pearl cover at a 1500-grit polish saves energy through the heads, and the strong asymmetric core stores it for a pronounced backend. You get the same big-flare Dragon shape, delivered with more length and a sharper finish. Understanding the SWAG Dragon Asymmetric Core and SWAG Scorch Pearl Reactive SWAG built the Black Dragon Pearl for clean length and a strong backend from the proven Dragon core. Specifically, the asymmetric Dragon Core posts a 2.48 RG, a strong .054 differential, and a .018 mass bias for high flare and a defined breakpoint, while the Scorch Pearl cover at a 1500-grit polish reads later than the solid Black Dragon and saves energy down lane. As a result, it gives you a clean, angular, powerful motion on medium to heavy oil and transition. The full specifications are listed below. The Line's Strongest Asymmetric Block, Shared With the Black Dragon At the heart of the Black Dragon Pearl is the same asymmetric Dragon Core as the solid Black Dragon. At 15 lb it measures a low 2.48 RG, a strong .054 differential, and a .018 mass bias, a combination that produces high track flare and a defined breakpoint. It is the strongest-flaring core in the SWAG line. Pairing that strong core with a pearl cover is what gives the Black Dragon Pearl its identity: the same flare and asymmetric shape as the solid, but with the energy held later for a more angular finish. Because it is asymmetric, your pro shop can tune the layout to control exactly how clean and how sharp the ball plays. A Polished Pearl Cover for Length and a Sharper Move The Black Dragon Pearl wraps that core in SWAG's Scorch Pearl Reactive coverstock at a 1500-grit polish. The pearl additive and polished surface let the ball conserve energy through the front of the lane, so it gets down cleaner than the solid Black Dragon and then makes a stronger, more angular move off the friction. That clean read and sharp backend make the Black Dragon Pearl the transition partner to the Black Dragon: when the solid version reads too early on a drying lane, the pearl pushes through the heads and saves its energy for the pins. Leave it at the box polish for length and angle, or take the surface down at your pro shop for an earlier, smoother read. Black Dragon Pearl Specs RG and differential vary by weight.
