The journey continues with the introduction of the Epic Odyssey. Since the inception of the Epic line in 2004, Roto Grip has been on the forefront of High Performance asymmetrical technology with the Maximus core and the Ultimate Vision line of coverstocks.
The Odyssey is a defining introduction with the quick spinning Maximus II core, and the enhanced traction Ultimate Vision solid reactive coverstock. This combination is guaranteed to provide the most versatile asymmetrical bowling ball on the market today.
Roto-Grip "Pro CG" Technology
How or why is a Pro-CG manufactured? A pro-cg is created during the manufacturing process. When the pin area is being drilled the core can slightly shift. When the weight block shifts just a small amount (1/16†- 1/32â€) it pulls the CG off the Y axis towards the Z axis. This is why on some balls you will notice the CG is a far distance away from the Pin to PSA line. These small shifts do not affect the reaction or quality of the product, but it can limit the drilling options. Therefore we offer a different set of drilling instructions and mark them as Pro CG's.
How much does the CG matter? The CG is the least of your worries when trying to match up a bowling ball to a bowler for their desired reaction. To learn more about how the CG's relevance and other factors when determining ball reaction, see our chart below provided by the U.S.B.C.
