anyone know if this will be us release?
-
No it and the Ringer Premium are overseas releases.
-
Figured as much...thanks for the info
-
Sorry looked at the wrong name. No clue
-
That's odd, when I looked at this earlier, the showed a steel gray and orange ball with a core that was unlike anything Motiv has released to date. Now it just says "No Search Results"
-
I can see release date of 1/12/15

-

Thanks.
I saw the pic earlier this morning from the posted link. Even had a pic of the core. But that seems to have been removed from the site to which the link points.
Me thinks someone "spilled the beans" to early. ;D
-
What's the core look like then
-
More to come very soon... 8)
It is no international release
-
I have seen it in person..and looks like a nice piece, but the cover on it looks like its got teeth..lol..gonna be a strong sym ball.
-
Its a little pixelated, it did look much like the slate gray from the raptor talon...
-
What's the core look like then
It reminded me a bit of the Gear core used in the Venom. It also looked kind of like a modified(highly modified) version of the Predator core in the Raptor series. It was defiantly something new.
-
Need to focus on the Jackal that comes out shortly, not a ball that is a few months away.. Hyping something that officially hasn't had any information released on it can hurt the sales of the Jackal.. In my opinion anyway..
-
Good point, but since I'm not a staffer and the Jackal looks to be much stronger than I can reasonably use, the sales figures don't concern me. So I get to focus on the next "shiny new toy. " LOL
-
Forza..isnt really shiny..its 3000 and dull looking...just saying.

I kind of thought more like...hallogen core with sharp edges. 2.50 and .051 diff. Excited to see how it rolls.

Yea, I wish I still had the pic of it. It had "ribs" kinda like the gear core, but I only looked for a minute or so before leaving for work. Maybe a modified light bulb of some type. That would suit me fine, I love the Tribal.
-
Yeah. Similar base as the Vanquish core, with the widest part of the core lowered to about the middle of the core.
-
I was on a Motiv thread last night where all of this information was leaked. Supposedly Dec 22nd......Torx core....

You say that like you don't even know us. Lol
-
A shit storm implies something bad is happening...safe to say we're all excited and happy to welcome another new Motiv to the world...with open arms.
-
Yes, and Motiv knows that, the info was leaked. I think they've done this long enough and have enough money on the line that they know to consider something like this. If it's too simple an explanation, there's usually another one.

-
I was able to save the sale sheet for the Forza ball. It's most likely going to be a December release since Motiv normally releases a new ball about every other month.
-
Yup. December 1.
-
Here it is. Sorry, was having trouble getting this up earlier.
-
This will round out their Medium condition balls very nicely. Start with this on the fresh, then go to the Sigma Sting, and then down to the Octane to really open it up. Now they just have to get the solid to compliment the Jackal.

Less Pixelated Image

I received a FB post today that also said December 1st. It didn't mention much about the ball but when I did a search I found more stuff on BowlerX.com:

From the PBA site.
Utilzing completely new technology, the Forzaâ„¢ is precisely tuned for a smooth and powerful motion on medium oil. It is engineered using the new Torxâ„¢ weight block design and Helixâ„¢ Solid Reactive cover stock.
The powerful new Torxâ„¢ engine driving the the Forzaâ„¢ produces a 2.50 RG and .051 differential on the 15# model. It revs up easily and is capable of producing over 5 inches of track flare.
The new Helixâ„¢ Solid Reactive shell on the Forzaâ„¢ is formulated to produce the friction required to read the mid-lane incredibly well, yet still display devastating continuation. This neon orange and gray cover is finished at the factory with a 3000 Grit LSS tread.
• Performance Target: Medium Oil
• Inner Core: Torx™
• Coverstock: Helix™ Solid Reactive – NEW!
• Finish: 3000 Grit LSS
• Weights: 12# - 16#
• 15# Specs: RG - 2.50, Diff - .051
• Flare Potential: 5+ Inches
