Motiv Apex Jackal

Motiv Apex Jackal

The Motiv Apex Jackal isn’t just the next step in evolution—it’s a completely new predator. When a predator evolves, everything else becomes prey. What sets this beast apart begins deep within: the all-new Apex Predator core. At MOTIV, new technology isn’t introduced for the sake of novelty—it’s introduced because it gives bowlers a measurable, undeniable advantage. Steve Wilbur of the MOTIV R&D team explains it best: “we’ve discussed adding a dual-density asymmetrical core to the line for years, but anytime we introduce new technology we want it to fit in the product line and offer something that wasn’t already available. This core is nothing like what we had before; it’s dynamic, it’s unique, and powerful enough to carry the Jackal name.” At the heart of the Apex Jackal is the patent-pending POWER BAND Core Technology. This innovative design introduces a high-density outer band around a proven inner core, transforming the way energy moves through the ball. This strategic density placement enhances torque, increases energy retention, and unleashes a sharper, more explosive motion at the breakpoint. The difference isn’t subtle—you’ll see it immediately. With an RG of 2.52—the highest ever for a Predator core—the Apex Jackal glides more easily through the front part of the lane, storing more power for where it matters: down-lane. A higher intermediate differential delivers a quicker, more forceful skid-to-hook transition, while the Predator line’s signature high differential ensures massive flare potential. This isn’t just refinement; it’s a true expansion of the Jackal performance ceiling. Building on the success of the Evoke Hysteria in 2025, integrating the Propulsion MXV Pearl cover into the Jackal line was the next logical step. Known for its angularity, versatility, and ability to handle significant oil volume, this cover is unmatched in the pearl category. Combined with a color formula engineered specifically to amplify backend reaction, the Apex Jackal becomes the most angular Jackal ever created. Period. This is what happens when precision engineering meets a relentless drive for performance.
