Review:

The Motiv Octane is the latest release from Motiv bowling. The Octane combines a proven core and a brand new cover that gives a backend motion like you have never seen. The Octane features Motiv’s proven Ouadfire core that provides a 2.55 RG that gives the Octane easy length down the lane and pair that with the brand new hybrid Agility SFX (Skid Flip Xtreme) that gives that Octane incredible length and strong backend motion, the Octane backend striking machine.

INNER CORE – Quadfire
COVERSTOCK – Agility SFX
FINISH – 5000 Grit Laser Scan Polished

Comments:

To start on this piece is how amazing and strong this ball is on medium oil. I was huge fan of the Thrash Frenzy because I loved the length and the strong angular motion that it gave me and had many award scores on that piece. I was sadden when I was told that the Thrash Frenzy was discontinued but was promised had sadness would be short lived and boy were they right. The Octane is one of the biggest backend and angular pieces I have thrown to date. Like the Frenzy, the Octane gets my pout of trouble when I need a little more on the backend and the continuation is just insane like all the other Motiv bowling balls. Lower rev rate guys will love the length the Octane will get and will still get that strong angular motion at the backend and just destroy the pins. Medium to higher rev rate players the Octane will fill a definite need in their bag as the Octane’s agualr motion and steep angle to the pocket will have them play lines not a lot people are at.

Likes – length and it’s strong, angular backend motion
.
Dislikes – None

I recommend the Octane to all types of bowlers.
