USGA and R&A Approved Tour Ball
Industry's First Application of White Carbon New Material Technology
Achieves 3.7m Longer Distance Compared to Competitors' Urethane Balls
Volvik, a domestic golf ball specialist company, has launched the performance urethane ball 'Condor (CONDOR)' designed with a new white carbon material.
Condor is a name inspired by golf scores. It represents a score 4 strokes under par. Following birdie, eagle, and albatross, condor comes next. The Condor is a 3-piece ball, while the Condor X has a 4-piece structure. It is the first golf ball to apply new white carbon material technology used in premium tires. With high density and cohesion, it enables lossless energy transfer and prevents rubber aging. White carbon is used in the core and mantle. It possesses high-density elastic energy, gathering condensed power until the moment of impact and releasing it all at once.
The cover is wrapped in optimized soft casting urethane. It allows players to experience both a soft hitting feel and stable short game performance simultaneously. The dimples are precise and combined in a perfectly symmetrical pattern, maintaining consistent ball flight in every shot. Condor is a tour-approved ball that has passed the inspections of the United States Golf Association (USGA) and The Royal and Ancient Golf Club of St Andrews (R&A).
Volvik explained that test results commissioned from the Korea Sports Science Institute under the Korea Sports Promotion Foundation showed that Condor demonstrated performance superior or equivalent to overseas famous brand tour player golf balls. It achieves 3.7 meters longer distance compared to competitor urethane balls. CEO Hong Seung-seok emphasized, "While we have been represented as the 'number 1' color ball company, now is the time for a new change," adding, "We will lead the paradigm shift of existing white urethane balls with Condor and accelerate our global market expansion."
