— 04 / WHO WE ARE

Sixteen years on
this lane.

Rick opened Solid 9 inside The Olde Bowl in 2010 with one rule: every ball that leaves this shop is fitted to the bowler who's throwing it. Not the catalog, not the spec sheet — the bowler.

That's still the rule. Whether you're rolling your first house ball or chasing a 300, you'll get the same hand-fit, the same drilling rig, the same straight talk about what the ball will actually do.

"We'll earn your trust as the bowler's choice." — Rick Coy, Owner
