Rockstar
The Roto Grip Rockstar is the kind of ball that gives you confidence the moment you roll it. It has a clean look through the front, a strong mid-lane read, and a controlled but decisive backend motion that makes it easy to trust shot after shot. The Rockstar + A.I. Core helps it rev up quickly without being too jumpy, while the NanoStar Solid Reactive Coverstock gives it just the right amount of length and traction on medium/long oil patterns. I love how versatile this ball is—it’s great as a go-to option when the lanes start transitioning, letting me stay in the pocket without drastic moves. It’s not overly aggressive, but it still has enough pop to finish strong at the pins, making it a great benchmark ball for league and tournament play. If you’re looking for something reliable with a smooth, controlled shape, the Rockstar is a great addition to any arsenal. Go to your local SPI proshop and get yours on 2/21!

Rock Star
Dual Angle Layout: 60 x 4 ½ x 30 Storm Vector Layout: 4 ½ x 4 7/8 x 1 7/8 The Roto Grip Rock Star features the Nano Star Solid reactive cover stock wrapped around the Rocker+ AI Core. This ball is a hook monster. It comes out of the box at 2000 grit Abralon which was too much for me on a typical house shot. I took the surface up to 3000 on a spinner and this ball really shined. The surface change gave the ball the length I needed to get through the heads and when this ball hit the pocket it sounded like an explosion, this ball hits like a truck. Another great ball from the Roto Grip line of products.

Roto Grip Rock Star
With Roto Grip’s discontinuing the Optimum Idol from the HP3 line, we were left wondering what the replacement would be. Look no farther than the ROCK STAR! The Rock Star features the all new Rocker AI Core and NanoStar Solid cover. I decided to drill mine 4.5 x 4 and after throwing this ball for awhile and watching others throw it, I know this is going to be a huge hit. It has the similar overall strength as the Optimum Idol and Phase 2 but has a little more shape down lane than those balls. The Optimum Idol is my favorite ball in my bag and goes with me to every tournament and I find that the Rock Star is the perfect ball down for me from it and is more of a benchmark ball in the line. If you are looking a benchmark ball with a little more shape down lane than a Phaze 2 or just a replacement for the Optimum Idol, pick up the Rock Star today and get your rock on !
