Get ready to ignite your thrill with the completely upgraded Max Thrill Solid!  This all-new release is a game-changer that's set to redefine the limits of dry-lane performance! Building on the incredible success of the Top Thrill Solid, this latest addition takes performance to adrenaline-fueled levels like never before! A cutting-edge combination of coverstock and core technology offers a level of precision and power that's suited for both developing bowlers and seasoned pros alike.

The Max Thrill Solid boasts a groundbreaking Turmoil XP3 Solid Reactive coverstock.  Drawing inspiration from the legendary Venom Shock, the Turmoil XP3 cover strikes the perfect balance between cleanliness and aggression. It's a game-changer that promises more length than the Venom Shock without sacrificing that smoother transition and explosive down-lane motion.

The outstanding Halogen core makes its triumphant return after six long years! This iconic core shape is an essential addition to any arsenal, providing unparalleled versatility and power. With the Max Thrill line, you'll experience a staggering 42% increase in differential, unlocking a world of possibilities with increased flare and drilling options.

WHEN TO USE:

Speed Dominant:

The smooth motion of a solid coverstock gives speed dominant bowlers an option for shallow angles on dryer lanes.  The increased differential of the Halogen core over the Halogen V2 lets speed dominant bowlers use the Max Thrill where Top Thrills would be too clean. 

Balanced:

For balanced bowlers the Max Thrill is a great early option on dryer house shot leagues and second shifts.  The smooth motion is ideal for blending the shape of a house shot and the cleaner coverstock should serve as a great option on higher friction surfaces.

Rev Dominant:

High rev players looking for control need a Max Thrill Solid for early use on medium to dry lane conditions.  Crankers looking to keep their angles manageable early now have a great option in the Max Thrill Solid.  So often, rev dominant players are forced to use balls that are either too strong or too angular early, forcing them in too far.  The Max Thrill Solid is a great option to avoid this problem.

    Excellent ball

    This is a sleeper ball. By this I was pleasantly surprised at its versatility and strength. This has been a great addition to my arsenal. Really enjoy the shape it has going down the lane.

    Ball helps learning to hook

    Bowling is something I have taken up recently. The Max Thrill is my first bowling ball. Previously I was using a house ball. The Max Thrill made learning the correct release for hooking it an easy process, because when you do it correctly, the ball just hooks a little bit, but still enough to throw some great shots.
    When I throw the ball, I start farther to the right, and the ball hooks the perfect amount; enough to smash the pocket, but not hooking to the left ten pin.
    I also like the low amount of hook, because i can use the ball almost like a spare ball. Even if i get al small amount of rotation on it by accident, it still picks up a ten pin.
    I think the Halogen core does a great job of making all this possible. This core does a great job working with the centrifugal force of the ball going down the lane, and into the pins with each strike.

    I highly recommend the Max Thrill to anyone who is just getting into bowling, or just wants a weaker ball.

    WOW, “Max” is right!

    “Max” turns out to be the perfect name for this ball. I’ve been lucky enough to have thrown almost all of the Thrill line balls, and this one is a totally different animal.

    I drilled it 5” pin to PAP, expecting a ball I would easily be able to play down and in with. Something that would be perfect when the lanes start breaking down and my Black Venom is starting to be a little too strong.

    I was SHOCKED upon the very first roll down the lane. This ball is much stronger than I expected. It moves. Good midlane read, very nice hard arcing motion on the back end. Although it is much stronger than I expected, it never seemed to be so strong that I couldn’t play it when I wanted to. Just weak enough to hold on pulled shots, strong enough to come screaming back to the pocket on shots I send out wide. It’s truly unlike any “entry level” ball
    I’ve ever thrown in that it hits as good as the high performance equipment. Motiv got this one RIGHT.

    To The Max

    Core: Halogen
    Type: Symmetric
    Coverstock: Turmoil™ XP3 Solid Reactive
    Box Finish: 5000 Grit LSS
    Video: https://youtube.com/watch?v=uIkuKntgK9g&si=OJBqmLlg92e2bJ2J
    Layout: 62 x 3 ⅔ x 35

    Strengths

    Max Thrill Solid is smoother at the breakpoint than the Max Thrill Pearl, the solid cover of Turmoil Reactive sits up more in the midlane blending the breakpoint. I always prefer weaponry I can sit on top of because I can force feed it into the 1-3 without worry of it hooking through the 1-3.

    Max Thrill Solid does hook more than Max Thrill pearl, however it is less that Surpa GT. The smooth arc motion of MTS is a user friendly option to me when I want to stay right blending the friction, instead of moving left at bouncing Supra GT off it.

    Weaknesses
    Medium heavy to heavy conditions I didn’t have immediate success, Turmoil™ XP3 Solid Reactive does not have the traction to that of Black Venom Leverage MFS Solid Reactive.

    Summary

    I’m a fan of small weaponry and by small I mean bottom of the chart small, what isn’t small is the reaction and ball motion I get out of it as you see in the video. If you missed out on Top Thrill Solid you won’t be disappointed with Max Thrill Solid, what you see in the video is what you can expect.
    The only thing cheap about Max Thrill Solid is the money out of your wallet.
    Add a Max Thrill to your bag.
    Your game will thank you for it.

    Not Entry Level anymore

    Some of my favorite light oil balls previously have been the Tag and Hydra, both harnessing the legendary power and smooth action of the Halogen core. So, naturally, I was really happy to finally see the original return in the Max Thrill Solid and Pearl.

    The Thrills have always been way above any other entry level bowling balls on the market, and the new Max thrills take that to even greater heights.

    My biggest struggle with entry level before was on challenge shots, or sport shots, even when they were burnt up, eventually I would find a limit of how much I could move in before the ball just didn't have the differential to make the corner and still have enough power to carry all 10. I saw none of that with these two. I was able to continue migrating in, and even strike at the 5th arrow with confidence.

    For the price you pay, and the performance level you get, these are going to be some of the best balls to recommend for all types of bowlers who need that dry level weapon in their arsenal.
