The First Reactive Ball That Grows With You

About the Rise

The KR Strikeforce Rise is the perfect option for entry-level bowlers looking to get in the game with their own bowling ball. KR built it around one idea: a consistent, predictable motion that helps you learn what the ball is doing and repeat it, with the combination of the Launch core and Thrust coverstock delivering the consistency improving bowlers are looking for.

This is the Purple/Black Solid colorway, the solid of the Rise line: the uncoated Thrust Solid cover picks up the lane a touch earlier for an even smoother, more readable roll. Available in 10 to 16 pounds, there is a fit for almost any bowler.

Understanding the KR Launch Core and KR Thrust Solid Reactive

KR designed the Rise to make reactive bowling approachable. The Launch core keeps the motion stable and forgiving while the Thrust cover adds just enough traction to teach you how a reactive ball responds to the lane.

A Forgiving Core Built for Consistency

The Launch core posts a 2.53 RG and a .047 differential at 15 pounds: moderate numbers that produce a stable roll with modest flare. The ball goes the same place shot after shot, which is exactly what you want while you build a repeatable release.

A Solid Cover With an Earlier, Smoother Read

The Thrust Solid Reactive cover at a 2000 Abralon finish reads the lane a little earlier than its pearl siblings. That earlier read smooths out the reaction and makes the ball even easier to trust on lighter oil.

Who This Ball Is Right For

✓First-ball buyers: You are moving up from house balls and want your own ball with a real, learnable reaction.

✓Improving bowlers: You are developing a hook and need a forgiving, predictable ball that rewards repetition.

✓Value shoppers: You want genuine reactive performance without a high-performance price.

Good to Know Before You Buy

·Ships sanded for traction: The 2000 Abralon finish is built to grip in oil. Polish it for more length when the volume drops.

·Colors vary: Actual colors vary somewhat from the photos shown; no two balls come out of the mold exactly alike.

·Tiny pit holes are normal: A few tiny pit holes in the coverstock are a normal part of the manufacturing process.

·Sold undrilled: Ships without finger holes, so it can be fitted to your hand and span.

BowlersMart Tips: Starting Your Arsenal With the Rise

Where It Fits in Your Arsenal

In the KR Strikeforce line, the Rise is the first reactive step. Pair it with the KR Polyester spare ball and you have the classic two-ball setup: the Rise to attack the pocket, the plastic ball to shoot spares dead straight.

Surface Adjustments

As your rev rate grows, your pro shop can adjust the 2000 Abralon surface to move the reaction earlier or later.

Coverstock Care

Wipe the ball with a microfiber towel during play and clean it with an approved ball cleaner afterward to keep the Thrust cover responding like new.
