Overview
A bowler facing heavy oil gets an asymmetrical low RG core with an added weighted disk and a sanded reactive cover in this Storm ball. Bold neon colors and a strawberry milkshake scent finish it.
High flare potential and a dull finish give big hook on oily lanes. That same strength can be too much on light oil, so it suits a multi-ball arsenal.
Who it's for
Experienced bowlers who need traction on heavy patterns get serious hook. Newer bowlers or those on dry house shots should start with a milder ball.
Pros and cons
- High flare potential
- Asymmetrical core for torque
- Sanded finish grips oil
- Bold colors and scent
- Too strong for dry lanes
- Drilling not included
- Not a first ball for beginners
Performance notes
An asymmetrical low RG core spins up early and flares across many tracks, which creates hook on heavy oil. The sanded cover grips the lane through the oil instead of skidding.
