COMMENTS
The Paranoia is something totally new.  The only dual density core in the MOTIV product line currently is the Impulse V2 core that is in the Primal Rage and the Primal Rage Remix.  The Paranoia features the NEW dual density Oblivion core (RG 2.53, Diff 0.047 at 15 pounds).  Wrapped around the Oblivion core is the Agitator Pearl cover.  This coverstock is totally new and should allow the Paranoia to fit right where it’s supposed to, in the Angular/Medium Oil spot on the chart.  While not as angular as the Octane, the Paranoia provides as much hook and more continuation.  The shape down lane is not as sensitive to wet/dry, which was the most common complaint about the original Octane.  Due to the unique combination of control and aggression down lane, this ball should be something special!  Definitely more angular than the Primal Rage Remix. The Octane Burn is also less angular and about 4 boards with the feet and two boards with the target at arrows right of the Paranoia.  Check out the video link.  The Paranoia corners well even for low rev, speed dominate bowlers like myself.
