The Tank is Motiv’s answer for when their Ascents offer too much snap for bowlers on dry lane conditions.

The Tank’s low RG core and urethane cover make it a no brainer for our dry test pattern. The testers were all playing closer to each other on this pattern than they do with other balls. We were trying to not throw the Tank away from the pocket, taking full advantage of the hold created with a urethane coverstock. We kept the Tank at the box finish, but made sure we had our microfiber towel handy to remove oil before each
