Trick bowling

This trick is often implemented in bowling video games, with Wii Sports being the most famous example.

Backwards approach shot: The bowler, facing away from the pins, throws the ball between his legs without looking down the lane.

For people, the most common setup is to bowl through their legs.. A variation of this trick is to throw the ball to the air from a distance, and landing onto the lane.

Flying eagle: A variation of the hardest spare pickup in bowling: the 7–10 split.

Some of the PBA's top bowlers have participated in the competition, including Parker Bohn III, Norm Duke, Chris Barnes, Del Ballard, Jr., Wes Malott, Doug Kent, Brian Voss, Danny Wiseman and Chris Johnson.

This added a new dynamic to the competition, because partners could bowl together and create more difficult shots.

However, after negative reactions from the fanbase, the format was changed back to head-to-head in the 2007-2008 competition.
