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.
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.
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.
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.

My new go to ball. This ball is great!

I got this ball as a Christmas present, and 2nd game threw a 257 with it.
This ball is an absolute unit, it never comes out of my 3 ball bag rotation for league and hopefully never will!
If you are looking for a medium oil ball with a lot of angle and a good motor to it, look no further.
10/10 would throw again

This is the absolute truth. I received my ball in the morning, drilled it (pin down) in the afternoon and in league that evening shot 30 clean, 657. Being that at my age, I do not have the speed and revs as the younger bowlers, it was decided to go pin down. Let me tell you, there is still plenty of back end on this ball. This ball is a must have in my bag for league as well as tournaments. Very pleased indeed!

When I first started throwing my Nebula, I was surprised at how hard it hit the pens. I've increased my average by over 20 pins because of this ball. It has a strong back end and hits really hard regardless of the lane conditions. This ball is awesome. This ball is my first ball out of the bag and I use it for all three games.

If your looking for a great addition to the bag that gives you incredible length down lane without sacrificing carry then this has to be in your bag. I had this ball ordered as soon as it was announced and had to re order it multiple times because so many people wanted it. I tried a traditional test drive layout on one ball and while the bowler it was drilled for was playing more down and in. I was able to stand at 30 and push it out to the 4 board and it came back roaring. My layout is a little off center above the ring finger, this ball has amazing recovery and carry. 276 270 and 248 first 3 games. Used it on a burned pattern after and took hand out. Still had plenty of play and carry.

Every ball is built to maximize consistency, control, and power—so you can focus on striking with precision.
