Roto Grip Hustle HSB

In sports we are always told to hustle well now Roto Grip is providing a line of bowling balls that will do just that on the lanes. The Roto Grip Hustle HSB takes the renowned Hustle core which has a medium RG design and lower differential and pairs it with the VTC-H18 (Versatile Traction Control-Hybrid 18) coverstock then is finished with a 1500-grit polish. This combination offers a smooth earlier midlane motion, with more stability down lane, and with more traction and is best on light to medium oil conditions.

Question:


How does this ball hsb compare with 3tp

11/5/2019 - By

Have an answer to this question?

Answer:


The only difference is the coverstock. The 3TP has the VTC-P18 Pearl Reactive cover and the HSB has the VTC-H18 Hybrid. Pearl coverstocks go longer on the lanes so the 3TP may go a little longer than the HSB.

Question:


whats the main difference between the hsb and the iq emerald

4/30/2020 - By

Have an answer to this question?

Answer:


The IQ Emerald is listed in the upper mid performance category and is rated for medium oil only so the features of this ball will be stronger than the features of the HSB. The HSB is a mid performance ball for medium to lighter oil.

Question:


What is similar shape to Dv8 marauder mutiny? Pretty old..with a lot of games on it?

10/8/2020 - By

Have an answer to this question?

Answer:


This would be pretty similar to the Marauder Mutiny. The Mutiny had a slightly stronger weight block but overall they end up being about the same performance. Both have good length with the polished finish and will have a decent backend hook on medium to lighter oil.

Question:


How does this compare to the blue hustle ink?

10/9/2020 - By

Have an answer to this question?

Answer:


The Hustle Ink has a solid coverstock while this ball has a hybrid coverstock so the ink may react a little earlier but it will be a small difference in length.

Question:


What does a stronger weight block do? Example hustle hsb compared to Dv8 turmoil hybrid?

10/13/2020 - By

Have an answer to this question?

Answer:


In this case the RG Diff on the Turmoil Hybrid was higher which means the weight block gives more flare potential which equals more hook potential. But there is not a huge difference there so while it is a little more hook potential it is not a large difference.

Question:


What is a ball down or even 2 spots down from the Hustle HSB ?

10/29/2020 - By

Have an answer to this question?

Answer:


Roto Grip does not have an entry performance line which would be one step below the Hustle mid performance line so the Storm Tropical Surge would be one step down from the Hustle line and below the entry performance line you get into spare balls but maybe something like the Storm Mix which still has the urethane cover but will not be a lot of hook potential.
