Chronic Paranoia

5.0Read Reviews

Capable of striking from many angles on a variety of medium oil patterns, the Chronic Paranoia™ is an incredibly versatile benchmark ball. Featuring the wildly innovative Oblivion core and new Agitator™ Solid Reactive cover stock, the Chronic Paranoia delivers impressive ball motion.

The Chronic Paranoia is a medium oil, moderately angular ball that will provide almost every bowler with a great reaction on many types of oil patterns. Rev dominant players will be able to use it to open up the lane while speed dominant players will have no trouble seeing continuation when playing straighter.

    How great the Motiv Chronic Paranoia is

    I will say that the Motiv Chronic Paranoia is a unbelievable Bowling Ball for me because I have used it and the Pin reaction is amazing and the hitting power of the Chronic Paranoia by Motiv hits like at Monster Truck but I am in love with my Motiv Primal Rage and I also am getting the Motiv United Revolt soon so I can't wait to try that Motiv Ball out so over all I am loving what Motiv puts out

    I would recommend this to a friend

    728 on First League Night with new Chronic Paranoia

    Got a really nice christmas gift from my girlfriend and had it drilled up ASAP.

    First league night I bowled everyone\'s socks off with a 728 (248-246-234).

    Just WOW !! This ball just does whatever you want it to do!

    I didn\'t even have to move any boards in or out until halfway the 3rd game, on a pattern that is already pretty dry and everyone playing in the same zone.

    And not to mention the amount of messengers I got. This ball hits like a freight-train.

    This is officially my new favourite ball.

    Would recommend it to anyone I know.

    Multiple Honor Scores in a month's time

    Between Mid March and Mid April of 2017. I have racked up 4 300's, 3 299's and 3 800's one of which is now my career high of 847. March 15th and 16th I managed to shoot 299-300 back to back games and back to back nights. Along with the Chronic Paranoia, I also used the new United Revolt for some of those scores. These bowling balls are absolutely amazing and I only use Motiv products!
