If it's really 5, then probably new colors for Scream and Shout or replacements for those, a spare ball or urethane, a mid level and upper level

Read it on their announcement,  on their page I believe.   It really says 5 new ones.

That's good news with everything storm has brought out lately I was afraid Roto was going to get ignored

I've never been a Roto Grip owner, but I threw a series with a Roto Grip Rising Star and that ball made me think about investing in some more equipment. I'm very interested in what else Roto Grip has to offer.

If u like the rising star, the wrecker is the next best thing!

My guess is..

-Sinister
-(Hybrid 1500 polish) disturbed line ball..to replace deranged
-Wrecker replacement (maybe a pearl no polish with the uproar core)
-Scream and shout replacement...maybe all new low end line.

Release date makes sense, just in time for the beginning of league season.

Personally, I HOPE they DON'T release the Sinister in the states! LOL I paid an arm and a leg for two of them!!  :o

the Demented definitely isn't coming here, I believe it's the same exact ball as the Deranged just different name and color. I would think the Sinister has a shot, it would sell a ton.

Demented has a stronger cover than Deranged


The Sinister has a brand new core and cover and likely will release stateside. The Hyper Cell came out overseas before it did stateside as well

if the Demented actually has a stronger cover, I'd be interested in it. All of the Deranged balls I've seen seem to push a little too much unless it's really dry

Deranged - 61MHâ„¢ Pearl
Demented - Armorâ„¢ Pearl

I don't have a Deranged to compare the Demented to, but the Demented is definitely a benchmark type of ball and appears to be stronger than the Deranged I see others rolling...


Anyhow, I can't wait for the RG August 2014 releases to be announced tomorrow at the Bowling Expo!!!  ;D

How much did they both cost?
Title: Re: 5 new roto grip balls??
Post by: REmarcaBOWL on June 25, 2014, 11:55:42 AM
Let's just say I was going to sell a Sinister for $400 shipped (Marvel Q sold for $375).

Now I will probably sell a Sinister for $220 shipped for someone to have it 6-8 weeks prior to release.
