Roto Grip Optimum Idol Pearl
« on: September 01, 2024, 09:42:09 PM »
The Optimum Idol Pearl comes with Micro Trax Pearl cover that was featured on the Exotic Gem. I drilled mine 5 x 3 which is the same layout on my Optimum Idol. After throwing this ball for awhile I was actually quite shocked on what I saw. I couldn’t tell if I was throwing the solid or the pearl because the shapes were very similar for me. The Pearl is about 3/4 weaker but shapes the same way as the solid. If you were a fan of the Optimum Idol, then you should no doubt grab an Optimum Idol Pearl for that ball after the Optimum once they transition.

This ball is a hit! I drilled this one 5x4x2 using the storm vls system. My initial thoughts after throwing this ball are fantastic. this ball read the mid lane great and had plenty of energy to finish through the pins. this is surprisingly strong for a symmetric pearl, but this is expected with micro-trax pearl being wrapped around the ikon core for the first time. I see this ball fitting the ball 3, maybe 4 range for a tournament bag in a 6 ball arsenal. Overall, this ball will be a great addition to your arsenal!
