Release Date: 19 November 2026

The Intel Recon Hybrid builds on the success of the original Intel Solid, released in 2018, and reiterates Radical’s commitment to consistency, predictability, and dependable ball motion. Controlled Performance: Modified Intel Symmetric Core 15 lb RG: 2.483 Diff: 0.032 The foundation for controlled performance is the Modified Intel Symmetric Core. The stronger overall reaction of the HK22 Hybrid coverstock allows it to outperform both the Intel Recon and Intel Tour.

The Intel Recon Hybrid has a familiar core shape and an upgraded coverstock that opens performance options for bowlers looking for a symmetrical hybrid reactive bowling ball with proven hook potential.

Modified Intel Symmetric Core - proven control and consistency

The Radical Intel Recon Hybrid is based on the Modified Intel Symmetric Core—a core design that takes the trusted characteristics of the original Intel core design and makes them better.

The core has a 15 lb RG of 2.483 and differential of 0.032 for a controllable and predictable ball reaction.

The relatively low RG supports efficient rotational development while the moderate-to-low differential helps limit excessive flare and keep the ball's motion under control.

This makes the Intel Recon Hybrid especially attractive to bowlers who want repeatability and consistency instead of maximum hook.

Radical brings a new coverstock combo, but the reliable Intel core characteristics remain.

HK22 Hybrid Reactive Coverstock – More Motion, Same Control

The Intel Recon Hybrid’s key upgrade is the HK22 Hybrid Reactive coverstock.

The new hybrid coverstock chemistry from Radical is made to work with the Modified Intel Symmetric Core providing a stronger overall reaction than the previous Intel Recon and Intel Tour models.

The hybrid reactive construction combines the attributes of a solid and pearl reactive formulation to help provide a balance of lane traction and downlane response.

The HK22 Hybrid coverstock complements the controlled nature of the Intel core to add reaction strength, but does not change the basic design philosophy of the Intel Series.

The Intel Recon Hybrid is a versatile blend of performance for the bowler looking for a hybrid reactive bowling ball with a stronger backend reaction and predictability.

Better Than Intel Recon and Intel Tour

The Intel name has been part of Radical’s lineup since the launch of the Intel Solid in 2018.

Over the years Radical has expanded the series with various coverstock combinations to offer bowlers more reaction choices.

The Intel Recon Hybrid puts a new spin on things with the proven Intel core design and a more responsive HK22 Hybrid coverstock.

Radical claims that the combo offers more movement than the Intel Recon and Intel Tour.
