“This ball will give a lot of backend and a lot of continuation. Will be the ball you need when you are moving in deep on many conditions.” ~ Jim Nemeth – BowlersMart Tampa
What is a Katana? The katana is a Japanese sword characterized by its distinctive appearance: a curved, single-edged blade with a circular or squared guard and long grip to accommodate two hands. We believe the one handed bowler will love it too.
One of the most exciting features of the Katana is a new asymmetric core design that yields lots of pop downlane. This is by far the most angular high-performance ball Radical has ever launched. Along with great performance, the Katana has fantastic shelf appeal.
The Katana has a new cover formulation and for the first time in Radical’s history we have named a coverstock, we call this cover; Forged. Forged along with the new angular core makes this ball extremely responsive. Our testers have commented on how quickly the Katana changes direction with a sharp angular motion that consumers will love.
The combination of fantastic shelf appeal, a new high-end asymmetric core, and an aggressive responsive cover make the Katana a real winner.
