After the outstanding success of the Mutant Cell comes the Dark Star and the Riot! Using a highly successful coverstock in the Ultimate Vision and a new core these balls are going to be two of the best rolling balls on the market for the price. The release date for the Riot and Dar Star is February 24th
At Roto Grip we pride ourselves in providing a complete line of bowling balls in both value and performance.
The recent introduction of the Dark Star created a nice compliment for those medium to drier patterns, but we still needed a strong solid reactive in the Shield Line for those patterns with a bit more volume up front.
The Riot is just what the kingdom ordered. The utilization of the Ultimate Vision solid reactive coverstock is the key to this addition. The increased surface topography and greater coefficient of friction battles those medium to heavier volume patterns with fierce intensity.
The Photon core delivers the energy behind the Riot. This newly designed medium RG (2.58) and medium differential (.040) core creates greater mid-lane read and increased entry angle to the pocket than its predecessors in the Planet series.
It's time to start your Riot in the Bowling Kingdom!
The Roto Grip Riot is currently selling for $87.99 and rates a 170.5 on the Perfect Scale.
Value and Performance have always been synonymous with the Roto Grip brand, and the all new Dark Star stands to continue that tradition.
Our first goal was to develop a stronger Shield Line ball to fit into the Roto Grip line. The team felt that there was too big of a gap between the Nomads and the Planet series balls. The intent was to create more mid-lane read with stronger backend motion, so we developed the Photon Core with a lower RG value and a higher differential.
To enhance this core motion we also added the Ultimate Vision pearl coverstock to this ball. This performance proven coverstock found on the Epic and Illusion series of balls. It boasts a higher coefficient of friction and surface texture for added traction in the oil and superior backend performance.
This combination of core and coverstock was the ideal fit into the line. Our tests showed that it filled the gap between the Nomads and the Planet series balls perfectly.
The Roto Grip Dark Star is currently selling for $87.99 and rates a 168.4 on the Perfect Scale.
After the success of the Siege comes the Evil Siege. Having seen a staffer throw this ball already, I can vouch for how good this ball truly rolls. It is much cleaner that the original but still has the smooth heavy rolling motion in the back of the lane. It is a great compliment for when the Siege is seeing the lane too quickly.
The Brunswick Evil Siege registers a 207.5 on the Perfect Scale.

It was shot on a 40-foot house pattern at River Lanes in Titusville. Enjoy!
