- Attention-T

First Impressions
With the Attention-T, Roto Grip brings a fascinating new development to market, one that stands out above all for its exceptional length and late reaction. Inside works the dynamic Attention Core, which with a 2.52 RG and a 0.048 differential ensures very clean motion through the front part of the lane. The pearl reactive cover is specifically tuned to store the ball's energy extremely efficiently. The surface, with a 1500-grit polished finish, supports this property in a big way by letting the ball glide effortlessly through the heads without building friction early. Visually it's a real eye-catcher and immediately conveys that this model was designed primarily for later and sharper changes of direction. The technical match between core and cover is extremely harmonious and purposeful here.
Comparison
Comparing the Attention-T with the Storm AstroPhysiX, the glaring differences in backend reaction stand out immediately. The Storm AstroPhysiX tends to read a bit earlier, while the Attention-T holds its energy a decisive fraction longer and then responds noticeably more aggressively to the dry area. That characteristic makes it the perfect complement in your arsenal when the AstroPhysiX starts losing energy in the pocket or entering too flat. Although both balls have a similar orientation toward lighter oil patterns, this ball offers a noticeably more dynamic angle. It's the ideal solution for situations where the AstroPhysiX no longer develops enough drive, since it generates the necessary entry angle.
On the Lanes
This ball shows its greatest strength once the lane has been played in a bit and the transition is clearly underway. It needs a certain amount of friction in the backend to develop its characteristic hook, which produces maximum, explosive carry. As the boards in the front part of the lane dry up, it lets you move systematically further inside and attack the pocket from a much deeper angle. It's very well suited to medium to dry conditions and an excellent choice if you're looking for a clean, responsive surface. With its forgiving nature on shots missed to the outside, it should keep your scores stable at a very high level even in the late stages of a tournament.
