Roto Grip Hyped Pearl Review

Oh, damn. Wow. Hey guys, welcome back to JR Pro Shop Vids. Today we're going to take a look at the Rotogrip Hyped Hybrid and Pearl. So, you may have noticed that the MVPs have been discontinued from the HP2 line. So I have two hyped balls here in front of me, a hybrid and a Pearl. Both

feature the same base cover stock just in a different form. So both these balls here feature the VTC cover stocks, one in a hybrid and one in a Pearl. These are the same cover stocks that were on the MVP line. So for our testing today, Jordan's going to throw these two against an HP1 ball Hustle Wine and HP3 ball in the Idol Synergy. So all the balls being used today are shiny symmetrical balls. Additionally, all the balls that we're going to be testing today are all laid out the same, so it's going to be a very fair comparison. Pattern for today's test is Stonehenge. It's 40 ft, 6 to1. It's one of the

easier challenge patterns that you're going to see. A little bit harder than a house shot. So, that's enough in here. Let's head it out to jungo on the lanes. [Applause] Welcome back to JR Pro Chef Vids everyone. Jungle is back. new hypes. We're going to throw against the Hustle and an idle synergy. So, we're gonna have a HP1, HP2, and HP3 review here. See where they all fit. See where they

all line up together. So, let's start with the piped pink. [Music] Standing on 28 here. Ball's going to go just over 18. Pretty [Applause] good shot. Uh, this is just our regular league shot. Six to one pattern. So, not too difficult, not too easy. These balls look pretty good on this shot so far on the fresh. I'll try and repeat that shot

one more time. [Applause] Got that one left just a hair. Still went through the pins really nice. So, that's a good sign. These balls hook quite a bit actually for the level they are. HP2. Let's try the blue hype, the Pearl. Let's try the same line. Should go just a touch longer and hook a little bit harder down lane.

Yeah, very small difference between the two, but that one definitely hooked harder down there. Missed a little bit right from the previous shot. really cornered much harder. All right, since we know this one corners are just a touch harder down lane, let's move a little bit left. Two boards left. 30 with my feet. 19 at the arrows. [Applause] Just have to be a little bit deeper with that ball than the pink one. Very, very similar. Definitely do not need both. Just one is good. All right, let's see how they stacking against the uh hustle

wine. My favorite of the hustles. Same line as lash up. Should hook a little bit less. [Applause] Yeah, actually pretty good. Hit my mark. Two to three boards less hook down lane. 248 10. Not good if you want to keep it clean. All right. So, this one hooks a little less. Let's move three boards to the right. 16 at the arrows.

Just a hair left there, but can definitely see that it hooks a little bit less. Let's try and throw a good one here. [Music] Two to three boards less. Definitely goes longer as well. So, that's what you're going to notice as you go down in the lines. Every time you go down, the ball is going to go a little bit longer. All right, let's flip it. Let's go. HP3 Idle Synergy. [Music]

Just got discontinued today. So sad. So if you like it, go get another one quick. Back to where I struck with the hypes. Feet on 30, 19 at the arrows. This ball should roll much earlier. Be much smoother. [Music] Yeah, pretty decent shot. Hooked a little bit more than the others. Two left ears. Should be perfect. Yeah, you can see just going up the

ladder. HP 1 2 3. You get a little bit earlier hook, a little bit more hook, a little bit more control as well. So, you get what you pay for for sure. All right, question time with Jungle. I got three performance levels here on the rack. HP 1, 2, and three. Uh, does your arsenal include a ball from each performance level in your bag? Let me know down in the comments. As for Jungle, uh, I don't I usually don't have a weak, low-end ball in my bag when I go to tournaments. I usually like to have something a little mid-range and drill it weaker, polish it, something like that. Just seems a little bit more predictable, a little bit more even for

me when I bowl a tournament. So, that's my reasoning. Let me know what you think down in the comments. Back to the hypes. Just where I struck with with the idle. Feed on 32. Let's hit fourth arrow. [Music] Damn, that went through the pins. Sweet. All the balls are laid out the exact same as usual. Nothing funny going on here. It's just a perfect step down the HP3 idle down to the HP2 hypes. Just a little bit longer. A little bit sharper. Down to the HP1 hustles. Just a little

bit longer than that. A little bit sharper. Perfect. Okay, we know that ball can strike from there. Let's start moving left. Three left. 35 with the feet, 21 at the arrows. [Applause] [Music] Threw that one like Barks. Brutal. Marks didn't find that one too funny. All right, that last one was very poor.

Let's do it again. [Music] Carried though. Missed two left at the arrows there. That was terrible. Held it line though. Hit the pocket. Carried the 410. People hate when I do that in the league against them. [Music] I think that was 22 with the arrows there, but still a really good shot. Hit flush. Carried all 10. Let's move another four left. It's been a while

since the HP2 line's been filled up. Definitely serves a purpose. Filling a gap in your bag. 39 here. Got to move up a bit. Ball returns in the way. We're going just right of the fifth arrows. [Music] All right. Pulled it one board there. A little high. Four pin. Ball. Still driving down in the back end though. That's good. Really good sign. Ball doesn't quit. Four more to the left. 43. Not bad. Let's move the eyes one to the

right there so we can hit the pocket. A little too direct. A little too tight. That's what she said. Let's move the eyes one to the right. [Music] Really good shot there. Definitely too deep for now. Just did not have that oomph in the back end. All right, the hybrid, the pink, just didn't quite make it back from that line. So, let's try the Pearl, which is going to kick a little harder in the back end. Let's see if we can get it to carry. [Music]

All right, the pearl is much better from inside than the pink one. Let's uh move a little bit left one more time with the pearl and then we'll throw the idle there and see what happens. Four more left. If this comes back, we'll be very surprised. [Music] Actually went through the prints decently. Missed a little bit left there though. [Music] Wow, that was sweet. I was uh thinking

wrap 10 there or flat 10 something. That was sweet though. This pearl might make my turn bag. Okay, let's see what the idle does from that line. Should be much earlier and much smoother. So, might leave a 10 in here. Oh, 10 went a little late, but that carried. I can already tell it's much easier to control though, for sure. But honestly, if I was bowling for score right now, I'd use the Pearl. Hyped Pearl. All right, one last shot with the Pearl. This might be my new dry lane ball. Looks nice, performs nice, feels

nice. [Music] Oh, little light mixer to send her home. Jungle's back from the lanes throwing the hypes HP2 line. Finally got some balls in there. And these balls are really good. So, these balls fit in the HP2 line of Rotogrip, uh, which has been vacant for some time now. And so HP means hook potential. So hook potential one would be the Hustles. They're going to hook the least. These are in the

number two slot. Uh the idols and the Rubicons are in the HP3 and the UFOs and stuff like that and the HP4. So I compared these to the Hustle Wine, my favorite Hustle. These hook a little bit more, three to four boards more with the hybrid here. And pretty close to the same with the Pearl, but the Pearl here just goes a little bit longer, hooks a little bit sharper than the hybrid. If you're needing something a little bit lower end, but still need a little bit bite the back end, these balls are going to be really good. Uh, these balls are going to be really, really close to the 900 Global Burners. I should have thrown

them side by side, but thought about that too late. Uh, I think they're going to be really, really close. So, if you have a hustle, you're just looking for a little bit more hook, a little bit more back end, one of these hypes is going to be really good. And if you're looking for something just a little bit less than the HP3 line, a little bit less than the Rubicons or Idle, idle Synergy, if you have that, Idle Pearl, these are going to fit right in there as well. I threw an HP1 Hustle, HP2 Hyped, HP3 Idle Synergy, and exactly what it says, hook potential 1 2 3. That's exactly how much the balls hooked. Each level up was

about two to three boards more hook. And that's exactly what you're looking for. All the same layout exactly how Rotogrip lays it out. That's exactly how much they hook and that's exactly how they fit in your bag. Really, really good. You don't have to think. Thinking is already done for you. Thank you, Roto Grip. I hate thinking. Really, I hate it. So, if I were to pick one, I would definitely pick the Pearl here. The way I throw it, the way my roll is. The Pearl here just looks a little bit better in my hands. It gets down the lane a little bit further, a little bit easier, and has that nice hard finish down the back end, which I really like on burned up patterns and longer oil

patterns a little bit later in the block. I'm not saying this one's bad. It's really good as well. Just I would just prefer a little bit more pop down lane with this. That's why I prefer the Hustle Wine as well. So, with that said, I'm not sure if this makes my tournament bag. It It really might if I know I'm going to bowl lots of games or it's going to be a long pattern. I'm definitely going to consider it. As far as the league shot went as what I was bowling on today in the ball review. Either one. They both look really good. So did the Idol Synergy. So did the Hustle Wine. They all look pretty good. Just depends what you like. Just depends what color you like. My eye likes this one. Don't forget my question down in the comments, everyone. Do you have a

ball from each level of performance in your bag? Just like Rotogrip sets up for you here. HP 1 2 3 4. You don't have to think. It's already laid out for you. Just grab one of each and you're good to go. Got a pretty decent bag. Let me know down in the comments. Stay tuned everyone. We got the Trend 2 coming out in a couple days. And then after that, we got the Quantums and the Payback from Radical. And stay tuned every Monday. Have a good night everyone.
