So that explains Roto Grip. Funny how they both had the same name

Looks like replacements for the Ascent balls, and from the picture it seems like they succeeded on that at least visually. Same core but a new coverstock. The Revolt Vengeance and Venom Shock use variations of the Turmoil coverstock so this new one should be interesting.

Ah, I forgot that ball used it as well. Makes sense though. All of Motiv's lower end stuff has been solid from what I've seen and I expect the Freestyle to follow.

I didn't care for the Panics MFP coverstock. I haven't bought an Ascent yet, but these have my attention. I was looking for something weaker than the Covra I picked up last night, was thinking Ascent or Rebel Tank. What timing!
What didn't you like about the cover? Was thinking about picking one up on clearance.

It's a shame this isnt coming out sooner. Ive got a few tournaments to bowl and could use a ball for burned lanes

For what it's worth the only ball Motiv has moved into the retired section on their site is the most recent Ascent Apex (Pink/Green). Of course the blue Apex could soon follow since the Freestyle balls have replaced it on their ball chart but it seems like the Ascent Pearl might be sticking around.

All 4 Ascents have been discontinued by my distributor. So I assume Motiv will be taking them all down soon.

Has the price been raised $40 more than the ascents.

Pricing through distributor is comparable to the Ascent Apex. So if it matched that performance wise, there will be an entry level hole below the Freestyle as the Apex is sneaky strong.
