Developed alongside PBA® superstar EJ Tackett, the pearl VIP is a limited-edition release for medium oil engineered to get down the lane with ease and come unglued off the backend with impressive power!

One of EJ Tackett’s favorite MOTIV® cores for creating angle is the symmetric Quadfire™, which was featured in the original Octane ball.  A MOTIV® fan favorite.  The ExJ (EJ Tackett edition) VIP utilizes this proven core technology and has been given a huge upgrade with Infusion™ Pearl Reactive cover stock to handle the modern bowling environment.

Designed for medium conditions, the limited-edition VIP will dig harder in the oil than the Supra and provide more pop off the backend than the asymmetric Trident Nemesis.  This motion is made possible by combining the higher RG Quadfire™ core with the clean and angular Infusion™ Pearl Reactive shell. Tuned to a 5000 Grit LSP finish, the VIP has the proper traction needed for a fast and consistent backend response.

    If you didn’t get this, you missed out

    This ball is awesome. Got drilled with pin above ring finger, and it hits like a truck. Has great length, great angle, but not too much of either. Great ball when the lanes start to burn. I pair it with my Golden Jackal.

    Absolute Home Run

    I cannot believe the abilities of this piece! With the lower RG and DIFF than the Supra, I did not expect this ball to be nearly as angular as it is. While not quite being as angular as the Supra, it also digs significantly harder in the oil giving it a bit more versatility. It digs in medium volumes like crazy, (enough to throw on fresh for some) but responds like a much stronger pearl symmetric on higher volumes as well. If you missed out on the pre-order for this one, do yourself a favor and go find one!

    The real VIP

    Motiv really hit the nail on the head with these new pearl covers. Every time a new ball comes out, it provides a completely different shape and the VIP ExJ is no exception. This ball for me is a great compliment to the Supra. Works well when there is a touch too much oil for the Supra, but you want to stay in the same zone. It reads the mid lane beautifully and as a result, has a smooth reaction downlane compared to the more angular Supra.

    Get one asap

    I can not emphasize enough how much everyone should pre order this ball ASAP. I was reluctant about a drilling a medium oil symmetric pearl. I am so glad I did. My only regret is not getting a case of these. I know every one uses terms like house shot killer to loosely, but this is that ball! I have averaged 243 in 5 games with this ball at 2 centers with different shots and surfaces. I usually need to knock some shine off of this type of ball but not this Gem. The VIP gives me length and midlane control with a forward rolling entry into the deck. Usually I loose reaction moving left as I am rev challenged however with this ball i can stay in my comfort zone longer. My moves are less and reaction never gets away from me.

    Do yourself a favor and find this gem and order it while you can!

    VIP - ExJ - LIMITED EDITION

    The brand new VIP is one of the best medium oil balls that I’ve ever thrown. The core from the original octane makes this ball strong in the fronts and hooks a lot on the backends. This ball works very well on higher friction sport patterns and league shots. The drilling angles that I used were 40x4.5x35. You will not be disappointed with this ball!!
