Welcome to Bowlers Paradise!

The Tour Dynamix from Roto Grip is an early candidate for this season’s “great ball that never sells” category. This new release features the Rondure tour core which is derived from the core in the Rubicon line, but with a lowered .026 differential to go with its 2.47 RG and .010 intermediate diff. On the outside, this piece features the Tourtrax solid coverstock which is actually an adapted version of the VTC covers from the hustle line, but with some extra ingredients and surface as it comes out of the box at a pretty dull 2000 grit.

For the layout, I went with a 4.5x4.5x4 2LS layout. It’s a pretty simple one inspired by what worked with the DV8 Brutal Collision, as I wanted to see what this thing could do. It was my belief that when they announced this Tour Dynamix that it was going to be a very intentional design, and I didn’t want the layout to get in the way of what the manufacturer had intended.

AND ON THE LANES… I got most of what I had expected. The Tour dynamix was very slow transitioning, but still got through pins well and didn’t really quit and roll out anywhere on the lane. There was definitely a sweet spot just inside of the track area, but with some simple tricks with my hand, I was able to move around the lane and get it to do what I wanted it to do for the most part.

But if we’re being honest, control is the name of the game with this newest release from Roto Grip. In the right hands, I can see someone being just plain unstoppable with this ball on basically any condition, but the bowler that can do that knows their game extremely well, and is able to manipulate what they want to do with the ball to make the right shape.

In the wrong hands, I think a lot of amateur or league bowlers will struggle with this shape. It’s definitely not sexy, and will probably leave more corner pins than they care to count. Adjusting the surface up to something more like 4000 would remedy some of that issue as it would probably be a more “normal” motion, but even still, I think there are just better options available for those bowlers that don’t require any specific modifications.

But if you’re one that believes that they’ll be able to live up to this much potential, then I think pairing the tour dynamix with the Hustle RIP and the Exotic Gem is the bag for you. Each of these three require a bowler who knows their game really well to truly unlock what those pieces are great at and once they do, look out. Having those three very unique shapes in the hands of a talented bowler could spell disaster for a tournament field.

For our crossbrand comparisons, I first grabbed the black venom from Motiv. I’d say these two fall in a similar category, but the black venom is more user friendly. It makes a shape on this house shot that is much more familiar to most bowlers, but still has a lot of cover strength to control the motion from front to back. On flatter conditions, or ones with a lot of carrydown from urethane usage, I would bet that the tour dynamix would look far superior, but on this house shot, I think the edge goes to the venom.

On the Brunswick side of things, I grabbed the Trailblazer Solid from Radical and while the covers seem to be similar in strength, the trailblazer has significantly more core strength. With that, the way I see it is they like to be played in similar parts of the lane, but the Trailblazer ends up much more forward off the pattern as it just flares a lot more. On tougher conditions and with the surfaces matched up, I think the lower rev rate players will like the trailblazer slightly more, with the inverse being true for higher rev players, but on house, I think there are again better options for most.

Which leads me to my recommendations. The first is tournament bowlers. While the tour dynamix isn’t great for house style conditions, it’s one of the best options for fresh tournament conditions. If you’ve seen other reviews calling it a urethane replacement, I would disagree with that, but you’ll use it in similar contexts where you just need to stay outside and control your ball motion. This piece can do that plus beat urethane carry down, so I would call that a win-win. The second is high tilt players. This cover is stronger than Roto Grip is giving it credit for, so putting this in the hands of a high tilt player would be nasty as they can stay in the track area and just pound pins as it will both never miss the spot, and never roll out on both house and sport conditions.

So while it’s not made for everyone, if you’re going out there and competing on those challenging conditions yourself, don’t leave home without the all new Tour Dynamix from Roto Grip
