Ripcord

Infuse your game with angle with the Ripcord™.  Tuned to create as much angle and continuation through the pins as possible, the Ripcord™ is the ideal ball for generating incredible down lane motion on moderate volumes of oil.  When the oil in the front part of the lane is depleted and moving in to create angle is the only option, the Ripcord™ will create that angle with ease.

The latest development in coverstock technology, the Infusion™ Reactive cover gives easy length with incredible down lane motion.  This cover is tuned for today’s higher viscosity oils to provide length without risking the ball slipping through the breakpoint.

The Oblivion™ core is a finely tuned device for creating as much angle and continuation through the pins as possible.  Every component of this core is designed to help bowlers create down lane motion.  The high rg creates easy length.  The moderate differential ensures that the ball will not flare too little and miss the break point.  Added to this great rg/diff combo is a dynamic dual density component!  The massive flip block on the bottom of the Oblivion core only adds to the angle it creates.

    Solid Ball

    I only recently started bowling 3 years ago. My uncle gave me his handed down Motiv Primal Rage but ultimately the ball was a little too aggressive for me. I picked up the Ripcord at the beginning of this year's league season and what a difference it's made. I have been able to completely change how I bowl and and have my average up 20 pins since I started using the Ripcord. I can use it all 3 games of the night and never lose the continuation through the pins. The ball hits hard with plenty of angle from whatever line I need to play. Would recommend to all.

    Earned its keep in my bag, might yours too.

    Was looking for something to compliment my Jackal Ghost and had myself convinced the Ripcord wasn't the one. Pro shop paired us up and made a big fat liar out of me! First few throws I wondered if it was ever gonna turn, boy does it. With this you can have a line when it seems all parts of the lane has traffic. Third league game (first of that night) with very limited practice I bowled almost 40 pins over personal best.
