The original hyped series earned a loyal following. The Roto Grip hyped UP! redefines that legacy, bringing a modern, high-performance edge to a fan favorite by re-engineering the core and matching it with an advanced hybrid cover.
The hyped UP! features a re-engineered Hyped UP Core, built with increased density that lowers the RG for an earlier mid-lane read and boosts the differential for more track flare, so the ball revs up faster and delivers a more aggressive, continuous motion through the pins. To match it, Roto Grip wrapped the core in the V-R1 Hybrid Reactive coverstock at a 4000-grit finish, in a sharp Black and Black Pearl cosmetic. It is the high-performance HP2 piece in Roto Grip’s lineup. The hyped UP! is part of one of the deepest new-release seasons in years, which you can see in our 2026 new bowling balls roundup.
