Desert Tank
Ripcord Flight
-
Someone last night in league mentioned Ripcord Flight. Didn't catch exactly what they were saying, but I did hear the name come up.
-
Seen images and info on both posted on FB as new stateside releases.

A+ for the color on the Ripcord Flight

Heard a staffer say something about the Ripcord being "SHOCKing". Oh boy!

The Desert Tank looks like a pearl.

Nice find! Seems like a new version of the Venom Shock cover 🤔
Also a birdy told me the new Desert Tank is a Microcell Polymer ball, and that it's actually a pearl blend, but still haven't seen a box, or guaranteed factual spec sheet on it.

LMAO its probably almost solely due to this site why Storm is now releasing info on their balls before they are even approved. Deep sources.

I think this is the first time we've seen the Oblivion core with a solid coverstock. Should be interesting... and I'm betting pretty good. Maybe similar to the shape of the Idol Pro, more downlane though.

I think the Chronic Paranoia was a solid

yes, you are right

At 3:15 of this JR video you can see Nathan Bohr pick up his Desert Tank off the ball return during the PBA Players practice session 2/10/20.

Whoops, totally forgot about the Chronic. If I remember correctly that one was kind of... meh. Hopefully the new cover on the Flight makes all the difference.

Found this description online
Introducing the new Motiv Ripcord Flight
• MOTIV® has produced some of the greatest solid reactive bowling balls in the world. They create aggressive traction in oil yet retain energy for explosive continuation down lane, and that’s not easy to do. Those impressive characteristics have been refined and tuned for medium oil to deliver the solid Ripcord™ Flight.
• Continuing with the dual-density Oblivion™ core to provide length and create angle, the Sky Blue Ripcord™ Flight features Turmoil™ Max Solid Reactive cover stock. This modified version of the cover used on the Venom Shock handles slightly more oil volume and is tuned with a 3000 Grit LSS factory finish.
• “For years, our pro tour staff have asked for a ball to compliment the Venom Shock when it can’t create enough angle or combat the volume on the lane. The Ripcord Flight is exactly that ball. I can’t wait to get this in the hands of competitive and casual bowlers,†said MOTIV® PBA® Tour rep Brett Spangler.
• For many bowlers, the Sky Blue Ripcord™ Flight will be an outstanding benchmark ball. It perfectly balances the characteristics of a solid cover while also providing more shape down lane. This piece is a must.

It will not release until after the Flight. Based upon normal scheduling, that would be early May. More info will release sometime in April.
