The Next Evolution of Chaos
About the Wicked Gremlin
The original Gremlin became a superstar on the strength of its maxed-out core densities. The Roto Grip Wicked Gremlin takes that iconic Gremlin Series to a more aggressive level, pairing the same proven engine with a refined, nano-free solid cover built for controlled heavy-oil traction.
The Wicked Gremlin keeps the asymmetric Rondure MaxD Core, the high-density block that powered the original Gremlin, and wraps it in the new G-R1 Solid Reactive coverstock at a 2000-grit finish, in a bold Citrine, Red, and Purple cosmetic. The result is a grippy, high-friction footprint without the over-aggressive bite of its predecessor: more mid-lane traction with a smoother, more continuous transition through the backend. It is the high-performance HP3 piece in Roto Grip's lineup. The Wicked Gremlin is part of one of the deepest new-release seasons in years, which you can see in our 2026 new bowling balls roundup.
Understanding the Roto Grip Rondure MaxD Core and Roto Grip G-R1 Solid Reactive
Roto Grip built the Wicked Gremlin for controlled traction on medium-heavy oil. Specifically, the asymmetric Rondure MaxD core uses maxed-out densities to read the mid-lane strongly and keep driving, while the new G-R1 Solid cover delivers a high-friction, grippy footprint engineered as a refined, nano-free alternative to the more aggressive V-R1. As a result, you get a predictable mid-lane read and a smooth, continuous transition rather than an over-aggressive, jumpy bite, which is exactly what makes it handle fresh house shots and transitioning tournament conditions wickedly well. The full per-weight specs are listed below.
The Maxed-Out Asymmetric Engine Behind the Original Gremlin
At the heart of the Wicked Gremlin is the asymmetric Rondure MaxD Core, the same maxed-out weight block that propelled the original Gremlin to superstar status. At 15 lb it measures RG 2.50, a strong .058 differential, and a .010 intermediate differential (mass bias), numbers that produce heavy flare and a strong, continuous, hard-driving motion. The maxed-out densities are the key: they let the core read the mid-lane early and keep storing energy deep into the pattern instead of rolling out.
That strong, continuous motion is what makes the Wicked Gremlin a true heavy-oil piece. The Rondure MaxD core delivers an early, powerful read and keeps driving through the pins, and the high differential creates the flare needed to clear medium-heavy volume. It is an aggressive engine that, paired with the right cover, stays controllable rather than jumpy.
