It might be an international release? They just announce a new Asymmetric ball called the Grudge and the Diva XOXO.

DV8 GRUDGE
The black/purple/white Grudge utilizes our new Composite Hook solid coverstock matched with a brand new asymmetric core design to provide “Hook-in-a-Box” ball motion. The Grudge is an incredible ball for heavy oil lane conditions, and it is going to turn some heads.

Color: Black/Purple/White
Finish: 500, 1000 Siaair
Coverstock: Composite Hook Solid
RG Min 15#: 2.490
RG Diff 15#: 0.056
RG Asy 15#: 0.014

DV8 DIVA XOXO
The purple/silver Diva XOXO combines our new Composite Flip pearl coverstock with the proven Diva core to provide length, flip, and lots of strikes. The combination of great looks and impressive performance makes the Diva XOXO a real sweetheart of a bowling ball.

Color: Purple/Silver
Finish: 500 Siaair, Royal Compound
Coverstock: Composite Flip Pearl
RG Min 15#: 2.516
RG Diff 15#: 0.052

Dang, Radical in RI beat me to it. I had to go shovel snow. Seriously, the northeast was doing so well without the snow.

The XOXO will be a little cleaner and more angular than the Pearl.  And should handle a little more oil as well.

Here are our reviews for both the Grudge and the Diva XOXO.  the grudge is VERY strong, featuring the strongest cover they have ever made, and the diva is very skid - flip.

I loved the reaction you guys got off that Motion hole'd XOXO, Scoops looked like he was literally aiming for the gutter, BAM, hits the pocket. /MindBlown

I think it's cool they released a ball that shows how my game usually goes. Strike, Open, Strike, Open.
