So, whether you’re a casual bowler looking to improve your skills, or a pro looking for that competitive edge, we highly recommend the Roto Grip Optimum Idol.

Roto Grip Optimum Idol Bowling Ball

Tough patterns. Easy patterns. Issues with fresh over reacting backends. Struggles on transition. We say BRING IT ON! Between the original Ikon™ block encapsulated with A.I. Core Technology, and our MicroTrax™ Solid Coverstock wrapped around the outside, this beaut is definitely like using a cheat code on the lanes. And there is no doubt this combo of core and cover will increase the confidence and playability for bowlers of all skill levels on a variety of lane conditions.

In our search to develop a dominating and unique ball motion, our R&D team spent endless hours evaluating computer generated stats based on various asymmetrical block shapes modeled at different densities inside the A.I. Core. It was quite clear during this process that the altered variant of the Momentous block (which has never been used in the domestic market), provided us the unique ball motion we were seeking. Bottom line, this combination of block density and slug density inside the A.I. Core takes energy dispersion through the pins to another galaxy.

The MicroTrax (Micro Nanoparticle Traction) Coverstock offers the optimum balance of midlane traction and responsiveness to friction thanks to the blend of nanoparticles throughout the coverstock. This formulation maintains its surface profile texture longer to ensure you get maximum performance while displacing oil at an above average rate compared to other coverstock materials on the market today.

Engineered for Medium/Heavy to Heavy Oil Conditions

Bottom line, in the HP3 line we have been looking for the next generation of Haywire. Needless to say, the new IDOL is that and then some.
