NOT ALL PINSETTERS ARE CREATED EQUAL
Boost ST isn’t equal to other string pinsetters—it’s far better. Boost stands alone as the only USBC-certified, cloud-enabled, dual-purpose string pinsetter incorporating the future-forward engineering and software-driven automation of the Brunswick Cloud and 360 Controller. Only Boost delivers the flexibility and agility to adapt to whatever tomorrow brings, combined with durability for the long haul1.

PLUG AND PLAY WITH ANY SYSTEM
Boost is fully compatible with any major scoring system, delivering all the quality, durability, and performance you’d expect of a Brunswick product. Even better, Boost integrates seamlessly with the Brunswick Cloud, Sync scoring and center management system, and all of Brunswick’s plug-and-play solutions. Special features reserved for Sync users include on-demand games, error reports, and the Pronto operations app.
BUILT AROUND THE BOWLER EXPERIENCE
Realistic pin action and consistent scoring enhance guest satisfaction. Boost’s USBC-certified, commercial-grade design and construction include longer string length and denser kickbacks that lead to a more authentic bowling experience. Boost’s exclusive on-demand pinsetting lets bowlers enjoy games and league training features that require unique pin arrangements. As the industry’s leading USBC-certified dual-purpose pinsetter, Boost accommodates both the demands of league and tournament play and the high-volume activity of open play. Boost’s precise string length (PSO) optimization lets you switch between them at the touch of a button.
“Most open-play bowlers don’t even notice a difference, and that’s a good thing. If they do, they are fascinated by the concept of pins on strings. It leads to some great conversations about the investments we are making into the center. Our league bowlers are very supportive and excited to have far fewer mechanical issues.”
- Dana Sorenson, Hudsonville Lanes, Hudsonville, MI, USA
COMMERCIAL GRADE EQUIPMENT
Boost ST was designed by the same expert engineers who developed Brunswick’s iconic GS freefall pinsetter line. Modeled after the GS NXT, Boost is designed with rock-solid reliability you won’t find in any other string pinsetter. Durable 100% phenolic-covered kickbacks, steel frames, and locking ball door minimize your business risk. Boost is designed to be durable and perform reliably for years to come.
REDUCE LABOR AND OPERATING COSTS
Boost embodies Brunswick’s commitment to automation innovation. Boost’s self-detangling mode allows for less downtime, and PSO optimization automates switching between competitive and open play modes. No mechanical expertise is required to operate Boost—the intuitive touchscreen makes it simple enough for any staff member anywhere, from the front desk to the kitchen, to operate. The modular design means components can be quickly replaced in the field by center staff. With smart, energy-efficient technology that only runs motors when needed, Boost reduces energy consumption by more than 70% compared to traditional freefall pinsetters—thereby costing less to run. And with 80% fewer components than traditional pinsetters, Boost doesn’t include any components that require regular maintenance (other than strings and pins).

“When Brunswick's Boost string machine was introduced, we jumped at the chance to switch our 20-lane FEC to strings. Boost string machines tick all the boxes: no spending labor dollars on babysitting machines, easy to maintain, great guest experience, full safety guarding, and Sync integration. We’re getting about 13,000 frames per stop with Boost. We couldn’t be happier with the performance. No other machine on the market offered an FPS anywhere close to Boost’s.”
