WIBC - Women's International Bowling Congress Walled Condition - This is also called "Top Hat" or "blocked lanes." This refers to a lane condition that makes it easy to score high. The oil is applied with a light coat on the outside boards on both sides of the lane (approximately the outside ten boards). Then the amount of oil increases abruptly with a lot of oil in the middle of the lane. This large change in the oil amount is called a "wall" or a "Top Hat" oil pattern. The ball will hook a lot when it is rolled on the outside drier boards and will hook very little when it is rolled on the heavy oil in the middle of the lane. This will result in errant shots ending up in the strike pocket because the ball will follow the "wall" to the strike pocket. Washout - After the first ball attempt, the 1,2,4,7,10; 1,2,4,10; or, 1,2,10 splits; or the 1,3,6,7,10; 1,3,6,7; or, 1,3,7 splits. |
