Roto Grip Riot Review

[SenorRotoGrip]

Combining the Ultimate Vision solid coverstock (2000 abralon box finish), with a new medium Rg core (2.58) with medium differential (.40), Roto Grip has created a Riot in the bolwing ball industry. With a slightly stronger Rg than the planet series balls, the Riot is a ball for medium to drier lane conditions. On PBA conditions, a stroker will find the Riot to be a very good choice for the 37' Viper and the 39' Chameleon. The Riot has one of the best mid lane reads in the roto Grip line.

 

I drilled my Riot with a 55 degree pin/pap, pin 4 1/2" from pap, below my ring finger, with the cg out and a 7/8" weight hole drilled on a straight line 4" from grip center to create some hook/stop on the back end. I used the ball in Sr PBA Regional on the 37' pattern on the lower friction Brunswick synthetic lanes. The Riot got down lane and then read the pattern. At that point the ball made a smooth move to the pocket and set up nicely. Carry was excellent. I used the ball for 6 games before the pattern broke down and I had to change to a ball with some shine.
