DV8 Bowling Ball Cores

Every DV8 core in a ball we sell, with its RG, differential and mass bias, on one map

DV8 puts 7 different cores into the 9 DV8 balls we have in stock today: 3 symmetric and 4 asymmetric. The newest is the DV8 Larceny Core. The strongest flare comes from the DV8 Collision Core (differential 0.052), and the earliest-revving is the DV8 Collision Core (RG 2.462). Every core below links to its own page with specs by weight and the balls built on it.

Questions bowlers ask

What cores does DV8 use in its bowling balls?

7 different cores are in the DV8 balls we stock today: Dualistic Core, Unholy Core, Collision Core, Duality Core, Larceny Core, Mantra Core, Renegade Core. 3 are symmetric and 4 asymmetric. Each core’s page lists its RG, differential and mass bias by weight.

Which DV8 core has the most flare?

The DV8 Collision Core, with a differential of 0.052 at 15 lb, the highest of DV8’s current cores. Higher differential means more flare potential and a stronger, more angular motion.

Which DV8 core revs up earliest?

The DV8 Collision Core, with an RG of 2.462 at 15 lb, the lowest of DV8’s current cores. A low RG core starts revving sooner and reads the midlane earlier.

Are DV8 cores symmetric or asymmetric?

Both. Of the 7 DV8 cores in stock, 3 are symmetric (one pin marker, a smooth continuous arc) and 4 are asymmetric (pin and PSA markers, a stronger and more angular backend).

What is DV8’s newest core?

The DV8 Larceny Core, first sold here in October 2026. It is symmetric with an RG of 2.471 and a differential of 0.028 at 15 lb.
