It’s all about angle! From core to cover, the Ripcord™ Velocity is built to fly fast and corner hard.  

The dual-density Oblivion™ core is a complex work of engineering unlike anything else in the world.  It features a massive flip-block to make the Ripcord™ Velocity come off the oil pattern as violently as possible.  And with a high RG and moderate differential the Oblivion™ core is dialed in for versatility on medium oil conditions.  “We’ve had this core for a few years now and I feel like we are still learning tricks that we can do with it,” said MOTIV® Tour Rep Nick Pahr. 

To take full advantage of the dynamic characteristics of the Oblivion core, MOTIV® is featuring new Infusion™ MVP Reactive cover stock on the Ripcord Velocity.  Evolving from the technology used on the Fatal Venom, Infusion MVP produces easy length and an unbelievable change of direction down lane. “This new cover technology is allowing us to shape the ball and create angles that we haven’t seen before”, said Brett Spangler of MOTIV.  Tuned with a 5500 Grit LSP finish, the Ripcord Velocity has speed to spare.  

When To Use:

  • Speed Dominant: Speed dominant players will use the Velocity as their burn ball.  What the Velocity offers is more angle down lane than anything else available.  For speed dominant players, that is the last crucial piece in the progression, a ball that can make the corner when they have to use angle. 
  • Balanced: When balanced bowlers need help through the front and angle through the pins, the Ripcord Velocity is the best option.  For balanced bowlers on higher friction surfaces where the front of the lane is an issue, this Ripcord will have no problem giving the length needed with a surprising pop down lane. 
  • Rev Dominant: For players who have rev rate to spare, the Ripcord Velocity is like cheating.  The incredible angles this ball can create for a rev dominant player are something nobody else on the lane will be able to mimic.  When getting steep is key, rev dominant players will have an unfair advantage with the Ripcord Velocity.

    Motiv Ripcord Velocity velocifies !!

    I threw the first shot and thought I love the shape pretty predictable but definitely does not lack movement on the backend . The ball gets into a very nice roll and sees friction and moves hard but predictably hard . I love this ball on my 2nd 3rd game when things start to dry out a little . The cover grabs the lane like it should and had great response . I’m eager to change the surface and do some tweaks to add the versatility of this ball My first belongs to my forge solid . Looking for to putting up plenty more numbers with this one ☝️. #motivnation

    Just like advertised

    I laid my Velocity out with pin-under-middle-finger, much like Nick had in his video. I also have a Forge Flare drilled this same layout, so I was hoping to be able to keep in the same area following the Flare, but with a longer skid and stronger backend.
    This ball delivers! Smooth, clean length, with a crisp backend that isn't crazy. Good angle, helping me when the pattern breaks down a little and I have to chase the oil left. A great compliment to the Flare, but strong enough to stand on its own.

    Three letters……WOW

    I just received the Velocity this week. I have been unsure of pearls being speed dominant as they seem to skid too far for me. The Oblivion core lives up to its name. Playing on medium to dry lanes as my house typically is, I threw a clean 213. Only my 3rd clean game ever. The second game was a 201 with a string of 5 strikes. The Velocity is the perfect step down from my Forge Flare when the oil goes away. I am super excited to throw both this league season fans see my average rising again. 136 to 162 average over my first 2 seasons. Ready to take on the world and represent Motiv. With the Flare I became a fan, the Velocity cemented that I to a fan for life.

    Great choice!

    Recently purchased the Velocity and as a speed dominant bowler pearls never matched up well with my game. Luckily this ball fits! Matches well with my Legacy and Shock. Even with the speed it pops down lane but not too late to where I have to play straight. Was able to use on THS And Sport shots and would definitely get another one.

    Drilled: 35x4.5x35
