WorXshop Bowling

Post by purduepaul »

So some of you have probably been wondering, what ever happened to Paul. Well I'm happy to announce that today we launched the webstore and website for http://www.worxshopbowling.com Now you are probably wondering why I wanted to start another bowling ball company? I wanted to do things a little different. I was happy as a staffer with Radical and everything they did for me was great, but I wanted to be more involved, so I decided to start a crowdsourced bowling ball company called WorXshop Bowling.

So how does it work? We have three fantastic choices for our Cycle #1: Failsafe, Hardened, and Pop! You review the three choices, and pre-order the bowling ball you want to get made. The first ball to reach 800 wins and will get made. If your ball isn't chosen, you either get your money back in full, another future cycle choice, or the ball that is going to get made. We will be running some demos in the Midwest, however probably not very much further just due to my work schedule.

Below, is our launch youtube video, and I'm putting together more currently. It's Your Balls, Your Choice. WorXshop Bowling

Great idea! Signed up for the Pro Shop information immediately. Just wondering who will be pouring your balls and are you still around the Milwaukee area?
Good luck with this new venture.

Pro shops receive a $10 rebate per ball purchased, we are developing the form currently. As for who is pouring them, a major ball manufacturer based in the United States. That’s what I can say about it. But, I will say they have been amazing to work with and I have been completely satisfied with the results so far. Including one of our choices being the strongest symmetrical pearl on the market in Pop!

I see you are still in Wis. and that will be a selling point to some of my customers. Looking forward to your product. Thanks for the feed back.
