The Rising sets a new standard for ball motion using only core technology. Its core - the all New Mega Tron - is the largest volume single density High Mass Bias core shape in the industry. This gives The Rising the widest range of ball motion in the industry using core shape alone. With our core pouring process, we're able to achieve a more consistent core. This, in turn, allows us to exploit the performance options of Mega Tron, and, ultimately, The Rising.

Because of the proprietary nature of this core technology we have decided to keep its shape a secret for now. We will say though, using traditional layouts result in The Rising exhibiting performance that is early and smooth. With our new "Core Tech" layouts, utilizing 360 degree core technology, The Rising will be the most aggressive backend piece of equipment you'll ever have in your bag. The Rising. TAKING YOUR GAME TO THE NEXT LEVEL.

Here it is after a long wait the Track Rising featuring the Mega Tron Core!

Pin to PAP(5 1/8" over 1/8" up) - 5 1/8"
Mass Bias Position - 3" right of center line
CG Placement - 2 1/2" right of grip center
Balance Hole - none

Surface Preparation - Out of Box Finish (4000-grit Abralon)


A few weeks ago I had the bright idea to make some changes to my grip and so I started cleaning out all of my older balls in my arsenal. By the time I was done I realized I did not keep anything that had my old specs and I only had a few balls with the new grip. After a couple of weeks using the new grip I decided to go back to my old grip and that meant I had nothing. So from here on out I rebuilding my ball arsenal and will most likely be adding a few balls that I already had and got rid of.

Now without further delay here is my ball review of one of my only two balls.

What I Was Looking For In This Ball Layout:
Well I have been extremely impressed with the "New" Track since Ebonite purchased them. The anticipation of The Rising had me a little worried because sometimes you build up the ball reaction in your mind and it does not meet your expectations.

I wanted to see what this ball had to offer. We used Tracks recommended layout on this ball and we left the cover alone. We hope to do some adjustments later on but for the sake of getting a good review we left everything alone and used as Track intended.

What I Ended Up With in the Ball and Layout:
Strong, strong, strong ball motion. I thought my Kinetic offered the perfect ball motion, not taking anything away from that great Track ball but this ball is nuts. I don't know how they got this ball to be so solid and clean int he front and middle part of the lane with this core and coverstock combination
but they did.

The Rising was a huge surprise for me in the first 40 feet of the lane. I was expected a lot of overall hook from start to finish but this ball follows Track's signature of long and strong. I swear I think a polished one of these balls could get you well into a 8 game sweeper it is so clean in the front.

Enough for the front lets talk about the part of the lane where this ball will blow your mind - the back! I saw this ball literally stop and put its left turn signal on. It makes one of the strongest and I guess steepest moves I have seen. I mean it came back from any spot on the lane with any ball speed I could muster up. If you read my Kinetic review you know I love that ball and it did hook a lot on the back as well. But this was different hook. This was more but in a different way.

This is definitely a ball worth trying especially if you need one of the strongest overall ball motions offered today. Did you find this review helpful? Yes No

Track Bowling’s The Rising is the most forgiving ball I’ve drilled in a while. My first ball out the box with it was a 289. I drilled this ball with the 2” VAL drilling as stated on www.trackbowling.com and applied Ebonite Factory Finish Polish to the coverstock. From what I’ve noticed, compared to the standard drilling, it rolls harder in the back, while the standard drilling tends to flip harder. For this reason, once the area you are playing starts to burn up, it makes it difficult to move in and still get the ball to get back. If playing the lanes a little straighter is your game this ball with this drilling will not disappoint you. If your game is playing around the lane, then the standard drilling is what you will want to use. This ball will be in my bag for quite sometime because it will make the most difficult of patterns looks easy, with its smooth roll and forgiving nature.

It's been a long time since Track produced a true piece for heavy oil. Until the Rising came. It may somewhat look like the old Critical Mass, but after one throw you know this is not the case. With a PAP of 4 1/4 right, 1/4 down, I decided to go with Tracks' recommended layout.


I've never seen a ball go so long and smooth down the lane, yet have the insane backend that the Rising provides at 4000 grit. I would consider my self to be a somewhat high-speed(18 mph), and definitely high-rev(425+) kind of bowler. With that said, the Rising still doesn't(or at least not yet) die out or stop making that strong left turn towards the pocket. I've since taken it down to 1000 for even more predictability and control on the heaviest oil.


But, every ball has a downside. If the lanes are broken down, or even completely dry, then you're in alot of trouble. But then again, who in their right mind would try using any ball with this kind of surface on the dry?


Add the Kinetic Energy to that, and you have a strong 1-2 punch!

PAP    4 over x 1 up
A while ago I purchased a Track The Rising X-out from my pro shop for heavy oil. At the time I didn't know anything about drilling bowling balls and the pro shop guy didn't either, so I didn't have a particular layout that I wanted and the pro shop guy just randomly drilled it. Since it had some stupid layout that didn't make since it sucked the first few months I had it so I stopped using it. Then earlier this year I decided to have it redrilled and was shocked to find out that the CG was in the Rising logo so there was only one way to drill it so I did that. MAN this thing turns the corner! The backend on this ball is unbelivable, even with the layout I have. My only complaint is that it isn't forgiving and it only works on heavy oil. If you try it on any other lane condition it burns out and has no hitting power. And another complaint is that due to the CG location it tracks over the thumb hole and both finger holes, but that's because it's an X-out. Did you find this review helpful? Yes No

Let me start out by saying this ball is full of surprizes. It will hook strong but it may not hook big. What im saying is if you play an inside line with the rising from a first glance going down the lane it looks like it will hook just enough into the pocket and leave alot of weak hits when really it explodes. Bottom line is the ball reaction is unique and some may even call it weird. I bowled my first 300 with this ball and have messed with the surfaces over time and i have it to the point where it feels perfect for me. I will always use it in warmups as a goof benchmark ball and if for some reason i dont it is always in my bag as the \"go to\" ball when im having a difficult day and a shot will be there. So all in all it is a great ball on multiple patterns and compliments the other risings well making it an extremly versital ball in and extremly good line. Did you find this review helpful? Yes No

I did the standard drilling for this ball. Pin under, mass bias kicked out. This ball hooked like crazy for only about 4 months. I only bowl in two leagues, 3 games each, and rarely go out and throw. I'm a high rev, high ball speed bowler, and even I found it hard to keep this ball in the pocket when the lanes even remotely started to break down. But this ball was perfect for the longer PBA patterns. Did you find this review helpful? Yes No

Very strong ball. In heavy oil this ball might hook more than any ball on the market. This ball is also very forgiving when you miss your target. I would recommend this to anybody. Though i would say if you are a beginner don't get it because it can be very hard to control. This ball can also work good in light oil patterns such as the viper and cheetah.

The Rising is definitely a good ball to start with in a league match when the lane conditions are unknown. Simply put, The Rising is VERY forgiving and allows for an extra 2-3 boards of error. On difficult shots (especially reverse oiling), The Rising shines and works wonderfully as it still clears the front part of the lane with ease before rolling and a smooth arcing motion to the pocket. The carry from this ball ain't exactly a big deal (i leave quite a lot of solid 10s with this ball compared to my venom and sauce). But due to its forgiveness, it is a must have for all bowlers who are looking to improve their average.



However, this ball didn't do exactly what i was looking for, i was looking for a powerful skid/snap ball but it gave me more of a smooth arc ball. It's not a bad thing but i do prefer skid/snap balls to arcing balls due to the more explosive damage done to the pins. And another thing, the coverstock of the ball seems a little weird. When bowling on very oily lanes, the oil track remains on the ball and it is really hard to clean it off with a microfibre clothe alone.. And the colour of this ball really pisses me off, haha..



But all in all, this ball is really strong, powerful and definitely a winner for bowlers looking for balls with more forgiveness. Great ball by track! =)
