Next DV8 ball coming later this year?
« on: October 13, 2011, 07:01:37 PM »
Heard rumors that a new/next ball was in the pipeline, expected to hit the market later this year. Does anyone know what to expect? I'd see some space for a solid/matte oiler like the Ultimate Inferno in the DV8 line-up, but that's just a guess.

I do not know what to expect, maybe a Misfit Pearl for dry lanes.  I do not know if they really need a oiler right now, everyone should be able to get there Hellraiser to handle any amount of oil, just with a cover change.

Would not be a surprise to see an introduction into the mid-point price range, below the Reckless and above the Misfits.  Either way, these balls do look good, and are selling quite well from what I have seen.

Looks like the Reckless with a different color scheme and added polish.  Otherwise same ball as Reckless.

Yes there is a new DV8 coming out actually this month. There going to be releasing a new one in the Reckless line. I recently went to a trade show for Brunswick and Brian Granham was there and briefly talked about the future of the balls. They will also be introducing a ball in Feb in the higher level line like the Hell Raiser

     the class 3 "L" reactive on the "too reckless" must have some pearl added to the cover.. the "original reckless" just has a class 3 reactive cover.. the "too reckless" will probably be a little cleaner up front and a little more angular down lane/off the spot by the specs I have seen and read about..

The original Reckless is pearl so not sure about the "L" difference between the Class 3 pearl on the Reckless.  Added step is High Gloss polish over the Rough Buff and 500 SIAair just as in the Misfit that is a Class 1 solid cover.

Good video as it explains the difference in the covers and why the Reckless and Too Reckless are different. 
 
How is the cover on carry down?
