Something out of this world is coming from Motiv Bowling. The all-new NEBULA is built for one thing: maximum angle through the pins.  This isn’t a minor incremental improvement, this is a ball that’s not even in the same universe!   We’ve reached new heights in down-lane motion by combining two brand-new technologies: the Hadron Core and the Dark Matter Propulsion coverstock.  This Cosmic Black Pearl Nebula is cleaner in the front, sharper in the back, and more explosive through the pins.

At the center of the Nebula is the brand-new Hadron Core—our first dual-density core in over 8 years.  This new symmetrical core was worth the wait, generating incredible energy retention for an explosive backend motion.  This new addition is intended to be the most versatile dual density core in the Motiv line while still providing the trademark dual density flip down lane.  And the high-density flip block at the bottom of the core fuels explosive reaction to new levels! 

Wrapped around the Nebula is new Dark Matter Propulsion Pearl - the sharpest, cleanest, and most angular coverstock MOTIV has EVER created. Every single adjustment to Propulsion tech was made with one outcome in mind: faster backend reaction.  Even the cosmic-black color choice and pearl additive were made solely to maximize angularity.  As a result, the Dark Matter Propulsion cover is cleaner and more reactive than any Propulsion technology prior.  This cover is pure rocket fuel. 

When to Use:

Speed Dominant - For bowlers with higher ball speed and/or lower rev rates, the Nebula will likely serve as an angular ball best used on friction.  Speed dominant bowlers require more friction than most, so rather than being a medium oil pearl, the Nebula will likely serve as a medium-dry to dry lane solution when the bowler needs angle. 

Balanced - Bowlers with balanced speed/rev rate ratios will love the Nebula late in league night, late in tournament squads, on lighter oil patterns, and often high friction surfaces.  When friction is present and angle through the front of the lane is necessary, the Nebula will be an outstanding solution. 

Rev Dominant - Crankers will love the Nebula for many situations ranging from medium-heavy oil to medium-dry when they want to see back end motion.  Many rev dominant players like to create angle through the front of the lane and need something that responds quickly to friction.  The Nebula is designed for fast response to friction, which so many rev dominant players love to see.

    ATTENTION!!! Bowlers seeking strong angular ball reaction, Look no further.

    The NEW MOTIV Hadron symmetrical Core with the Dark Matter Propulsion pearl reactive cover gives the clean length with a consistent strong angular backend reaction.

    The New MOTIV Nebula is ideal for medium oil lane conditions, and the first ball out of the bag on the fresh with plenty of room to move left, without losing shape!

    Great Arsenal Addition

    Won this ball in a drawing. It's 14# and drilled 55x4.5x35. It's absolutely amazing to throw. I play way inside 30 out to 7-8 and it has a smooth response down lane and hits the pocket hard. I used it right out of the box and my first game was 254. It's an excellent performer and may have just become the fist ball out of the bag.

    Loved the control

    Got to do a Motiv Test Drive last weekend. One of the balls I got to use was the Nebula. I average mid 150’s and currently use a Artic Vibe and a Hammer Raw. Using the Nebula I rolled 8 strikes in a row. I bowl from bowl 20 and throw at 15. The nebula almost had a mind of its own, I missed my mark a couple of times by a board or two and this ball still found the pocket. Can’t wait until I can get one of my own.

    Better than advertised!

    Always been a Storm guy but bought new Jackal Onyx, Jackal EXJ, Evoke Hysteria this fall and liked all three. Saw a Nebula last Wed (on release day) sitting local proshop and decided I wanted it. This ball was really good right out of the box. I am typically a down 10 and in bowler. Just to try other lines I moved around with the Nebula and can go from left side across 20 and in as well as throw it straight down 10. I currently have a 167 avg but have had 4 games above 200 in the last week since I got this ball. It is better than advertised!
