I am super tempted to head to Taipei this weekend to watch this tournament.

Taiwan has amazing ideas about bowling. Or more precisely, how to release the ball and where to aim it in the rack. Taiwan is a world outlier when it comes to bowling technique and how to approach the pocket.

Canada’s Frankie Lavoie (modern Western style) vs Xu Zhe-Jia (Taiwanese style). Commentary mentions that Taiwan has done extensive statistical analysis resulting in this style. Not sure I buy the conclusion, but it is very interesting.

When I first went to visit the bowling alley at the top of Big City shopping mall in Hsinchu, I couldn’t find a public ball weighing more than 13lbs. Like, that is the heaviest ball available. In the States I throw a 16lb ball, I’m like wtf. Then I glommed onto Taiwanese attitudes about bowling, how a lightweight ball does no worse than a heavy ball, the spinner style and angle of attack, etc. Mentally I want to ascribe this to weak-wristed Taiwanese, but evidently there is some science behind the approach. Super interesting.
