This was the missing piece in my bowling bag. I cannot say enough good things about this ball. I went to a test drive and got to throw it and fell in love. The smooth motion of this ball is great.

This ball provides me with a lot of control. I can also hold the same line for a longer time compared to some of my other reactive resin balls.
The only downside is that while I love the grey color, it gets dirty quickly.

This ball covers the lane brilliantly. I have been switching over my arsenal to Motiv and this ball works like a charm. From the consistency with rolling smoothly to the pin carry. If you don't have this ball you are certainly missing out!

Core: Gear
Type: Symmetrical
Coverstock: Frixion M4 Solid MCP
Box Finish: 1000 Grit LSS
Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bIp-chyuZf8
Layout: 45x 4 ½ x 70
Strengths
Microcell Polymer Frixion M4 Solid at 1000 grit box finish is even at the breakpoint, it offers much more ball motion than what Purple Tank offered.
The ball motion of Carbide Tank is very early and continuous, it has more backend to that of Purple and Blue Tank.
Weaknesses
I wasn’t successful using Carbide tank on high friction patterns as it read the land too early for my liking.
Overall Summary
The Carbide Tank provides more complete ball motion than any previous Tank, if you missed the motion you saw out of Tank Blitz and you want a bigger motion I encourage you to take a look at Carbide Tank
Your game will thank you for it.

The ball is pretty good but as the cover starts to tame down, all the strong reaction I see at the start is gone, after a few games on the fresh the strong reaction is all gone, it became a typical urethane probably with a 100x10x200 layout, only hooked in the back causing me to play my angles really tight. Also leaves a lot of splits but not much 10 pins, great ball if you were to play really straight but don’t recommend if you’re trying to open up angles quite a bit. Would be great on sport patterns where everything else fails, this would probably do the job.
Every ball is built to maximize consistency, control, and power—so you can focus on striking with precision.
