How could we make the Max Thrill line even better?  We asked EJ Tackett because he loves both the Max Thrill Solid and Pearl.  He said, “As much as I use the Max Thrills, I see a gap between the Pearl and the Solid that I really want to see filled".  That’s why we created the Max Thrill Hybrid, designed to fill that sweet spot.  After trying it out, EJ commented, "This ball is going to be great for me as a step down from my Venom Shock.  I can’t wait to add it to my bag.”  Level up YOUR game with the new Max Thrill Hybrid.

The Max Thrill line is all about giving you serious value without sacrificing performance.  The Halogen core has been a game-changer. It’s a lightbulb design, simple but effective. High rg (2.55) and low differential (.037) meaning easy length and tight flare rings – that’s stored energy, ready to explode.

The Turmoil XP3 Hybrid is the new hybrid coverstock that bridges the gap with speed, fitting perfectly between the Pearl and Solid. This new Turmoil XP3 Hybrid gives more traction than the Max Thrill Pearl while offering more down lane motion than the Max Thrill Solid. Bottom line: This new Max Thrill Hybrid is built for those who need performance and value.  You’re getting more for your money, no compromises.

When To Use

Speed Dominant - For bowlers whose speed sometimes overwhelms their rev rate, the Max Thrill Hybrid will truly only be ideal in very high friction environments.  For speed dominant bowlers unable to use the super clean Max Thrill Pearl, this new hybrid offering should give more traction while still offering plenty of pop down lane.

Balanced - Balanced bowlers who compete in second shifts or on high friction surfaces will find the Max Thrill Hybrid to be a benchmark piece for those scenarios.  The Max Thrill Hybrid offers a predictable and strong motion down lane for balanced bowlers in higher friction environments.

Rev Dominant - For rev dominant bowlers, the Max Thrills are an absolute must.  One of the reasons this ball was developed was because EJ Tackett uses the Max Thrills so much and felt like there was too large a gap between the pearl and solid.  When the greatest in the world asks for it, we deliver.

    Not Just For Dry Lanes

    I picked up my new Thrill Hybrid last night before league but didn't bowl with it as I usually don't have good luck hitting the lanes in league play with a brand new ball. Maybe I should have! I bowled my average in league, which is fine, but never really where you want to be. I stayed after and bowled three practice games with another league member. I pulled out the Thrill Hybrid expecting to spend at least a game figuring out where to stand and where to throw as the lanes were pretty wet that night. It took me two frames to find placement and ended up making three personal bests with this ball! First time with three 200+ games in a row, first clean game ever, and first 600+ series. This ball is smooth, predictable, and responds well to even minor changes. I didn't think anything would surpass my Raptor Rush as my go to ball but this ball has done it after only three games. I absolutely love this ball. Now, it's just up to me to improve on consistency... Huge shout out to Motiv for this ball and their overall product superiority (in my opinion).

    Not Entry Level Anymore

    The Max Thrill Hybrid is the best of both worlds.
    Cleaner and more responsive than the solid, and much more bite and overall power than the pearl before it.

    A great option as a benchmark ball for those higher friction centers or a great option for when the lanes get a little burnt and tricky.

    max thrill hybrid

    I had to go to 11 lb, to save my legs, higher weights put too much pressure on my injured leg.....11 lb THRILL HYBRID has strongest core numbers of any 11 lb ball and ball responds well to coverstock surface change. I use 2000 grit for league and all around bowling. if you change surface you will get a different ball motion according to change you make and ball also very responsive to hand position changes, I LOVE THIS BALL since I got, averaging 178 in league with 248 high game. Lower weight does not always mean lower scores at 76 yrs young it means healtier legs. THRILL IS YOUR BEST CHOICE !!!!!
