   For me, the Thrash Frenzy is very clean up front and with a serious change of direction motion when it reads friction.  When patterns start to breakdown, this ball will afford you the ability to store energy and not worry about carry down. Being that I am a higher rev rate player, this ball does not cause me problems by reading too early. The length this ball has before it reads is incredible. I love the fact that during league I can get in and create my own area and not worry about the ball not recovering. I can play the track and trust the ball to get through the heads with it’s clean front and still have the stored energy to go through the pins like it has a purpose.

Likes: Motion, aggressiveness off the spot, colors, price....
Dislikes: When I miss left, it doesn’t know....

Likes: The Frenzy get down the lane and makes an angular move.  This ball is meant to be used when the lane gets a little friction in the front part of the lanes.

MOTIV Bowling Thrash Frenzy 
CONDITION: MEDIUM OIL
The Thrash Frenzy is long and clean with a violent backend reaction.  On medium oil patterns that are beginning to break down and build friction, this is the most angular ball MOTIV has ever released.  Bowlers with higher rev rates will really appreciate the easy length of the Thrash Frenzy.  When medium oil patterns begin to break down, rather than see a ball burn up in the friction and hit weak, the Thrash Frenzy will retain energy and produce a violent backend motion.

I use this ball a lot on a THS league games 3 & 4… This ball has a pearl version of the shell that was on the 2 Cruel but it still holds the line very well AND still has stored energy in the ball when it comes off the pattern. I also see this as a great ball for a beginner that is looking for

The Motiv Thrash Frenzy is designed for medium patterns according to Motiv. It's description also includes the words violent back end.  The ball is as advertised. It pushes through the heads with ease on all but the driest of heads, revs up very late in the mid lanes and make a strong quick transition but continous move at the end of the pattern with plenty of energy saved.  The core/cover combo requires me to move deeper because of the angularity of the move on lower friction surfaces/conditions, and allows me to play the outsides on higher friction surfaces/conditions.  I am  someone who prefers keeping the ball in front of me so this took me out of my comfort zone.  But, it worked even better then I understood it would. It slides in oil and reads the friction quickly.  The Core of the Ball, the Quadfire, revs later in the lanes and has a lower flair potential then the Primal Scream. Compared to the last ball with the Quadfire core, the Thrash, the ball is longer and more angular. I have to have friction right, but those who are not as rev/speed challenged as this old man may be able to use in on heavier volumes and lengths.  If I tug the ball into the soup the ball skates but as long as the Frenzy finds a part of the lane to read it will still hit.   I think it will be a great match up for me later in long format tournaments after the Primal Scream becomes too much ball. 

This was my first attempt with 14 pound equipment and I averaged 245 with this ball for my first eight sets.  I have been able to find the pocket with this ball on my all conditions, and I have lost no hitting power. 

If you use this ball as designed, that is on medium oil patterns of volume or length as a skid/snap reaction, it will be a very effective ball. With the Thrash Frenzy Motiv that for me was not previously available with Motiv equipment, the go long and snap ball.  The pleasant surprise for me was that it carried well.  Previous to this ball I had trouble consistently carrying and controlling any skid/snap equipment.  This ball is very manageable.

I'm very colorblind but the Neomark Graphic makes the ball very pleasing to the eye and give it good shelf appeal.

The Motiv Thrash Frenzy is an awesome ball to add to your arsenal. When the lanes start to break down this ball easily gets through the heads which is especially beneficial on wood lanes. The ball goes long with a great backend finish. This will give you an easy to read reaction and a higher percentage of strikes to continue bowling high scores throughout your games. The ball looks great also. My customer’s scores are also increasing with this ball as they are able to create area and carry more strikes. 

I have used this ball on a medium oil pattern at 41 feet on a wood surfaces.
I am right handed and throw the ball at 17mph. I use the Motiv Power Gel Clean to keep the ball clean and ready to react at all times.

If you want a ball that is very clean on the fronts with a strong back end reaction then this is a great choice. Thank you Motiv for another excellent ball.

Review:
Its time to Get MOTIVated with the NEW Motiv Thrash Frenzy.  I drilled two Thrash Frenzys. Ball one is drilled 75X4.5X40 and ball two is drilled 60X4X75.  This is the most angular ball I have ever thrown by Motiv!  This ball gets down the lane with a sharp angular motion on the back end.  This ball allows me to play the deepest part of the lane on drier/brokendown conditions without sacrificing pin carry.  Comparing my two Frenzys, ball one gets much more length with more recovery in the back end.  Ball two picks up sooner in the midlane and a lil smoother but still angular in the backend. Another winner by Motiv, this is a must have in the bag!!!! Get MOTIVated!!!!
