Radical is releasing the Trail Blazer in honor of the industry trailblazer Mo Pinel. This ball is one of the last ones that Mo worked on and introduces some of the technology that he developed. This ball features a powerful asymmetric core and MOtion Magic coverstock. The coverstock creates Radical's largest lane footprint to date. The combination of core and cover found on the Trail Blazer produces plenty of hook and backend motion as well as continuation through the pins.

Coverstock: MOtion Magic Hybrid Reactive
Core: Asymmetric with DynamiCore
Finish: 500, 1000, 1500 Siaair/Crown Factory Compound

Radical Trailblazer

I’m a left handed bowler bowler. My Rev rate is 275 rpms. Ball speed 14 mph.
This ball has a new cover. Which allows this ball to be very clean thru the fronts. And with its new core allows it to have a larger footprint. Saving more energy for the backend. This ball is very continuous motion. A great addition to the Radical Bowling Technologies.

Likes: ideal for when they start to breakdown and you need something clean and continuous through the pins. I believe this is the last ball that Mo Pinel designed.

Dislikes:too clean for the fresh

The Trail Blazer is unique. The first time I threw it was at a ball demo and from the first shot, I knew it was something special.

While it is your typical high performance skid/flip type reaction, the breakpoint angle is where it loses all similarity with other balls in its class. It is actually pretty forward off the spot. And unlike other balls, it doesn't achieve this by burning up in the mid-lane. By some anomaly of physics or something, it seems to be very forward off the spot but still roll strong through the pins. It is like I get to have my cake and eat it too!

A very strong and manageable reaction without sacrificing pin carry. Ball works great from inside or outside lines. I actually love this ball.

If you are looking for a strong asymmetrical Hybrid then look no further.  The new MOtion Magic cover creates Radicals largest footprint on the lane. The beauty of this ball is, you still get length, without sacrificing the predictability on the backs. I am a huge fan of Hybrids, so this ball is a win-win in my book.  The MOTION Magic cover comes 500, 1000, 1500 SIAAIR with a crown factory compound polish, but the cover accepts change very well. On my house shot I was able to use the ball for a complete 3 game set and never struggled to keep my carry as I chased the oil inside.  WOW! THAT'S RADICAL.
