This is the third high performance ball from the DV8 brand. The Hell Raiser gave us a hybrid cover while the Revenge was a sanded solid. The Terror completes the trio and offers the first polished pearl cover HP (high performance) ball.

The long and strong reaction shape gave us the best offering on the medium test pattern. All the testers were able to play where they are most comfy on the lane and could easily get to the pocket. The polished shell also let us move a step to the right without seeing the friction too early.

While the Marauder gave us nearly as good a reaction on the medium pattern, we definitely saw this one
