Trust Every Move.
The smartest move is the one you can trust. The DV8 Smooth Criminal was engineered to bring a new level of control to bowling, combining a lower RG, lower differential core with a smoother, lower-traction coverstock to produce a stable, predictable motion from start to finish. Designed to expand DV8’s No Thumb performance options, Smooth Criminal excels on short to medium patterns, wet/dry house conditions, and other challenging environments where stronger balls can become too responsive. By blending the pattern instead of overreacting to friction, it delivers the consistency and control high-rev players need when making quality shots matter most.
