The Storm Tropical Heat has probably been the most popular bowling ball in my shop. It is really hard to beat the performance you get from this ball for $109.99. This new solid release is going to almost create a arsenal out of this line. I have drilled these balls for all types of players and I have yet to see a person not like it. I cannot wait to get my hands on this ball.

Are you ready to set the lanes ablaze? Well now you can with the new Storm Tropical Heat!



First, Storm added a Solid version of the proven Reactor reactive coverstock, known for such balls as the Thunderstruck and Street Rod. Next, they wrapped it around the Turbine Core, the engine inside the Fast, Furious and Natural. This combo is HOT! Whether this is your first reactive ball, or you're an advanced player looking for an option on drier conditions, give the Tropical Heat a shot!

The new Storm Tropical Breeze is going to be the the ultimate ball for drier patterns. Rev dominate players are going to LOVE this ball. I myself plan on drilling at least 2 of these. It is going to be nice to be able to play in the track area on a house shot for a change.

Scoring has never been such a BREEZE! The new Storm Tropical Breeze is bringing entry performance to a new level! Featuring the new Camber Core, the Tropical Breeze will be perfect for those beginners looking to step up to reactive resin. Advanced players looking for options on drier conditions will benefit greatly from this new cover/core combination. The Pink/Purple model is infused with the fragrance of birthday cake as well!

Storm Virtual Gravity Nano

February 1, 2011

After the great success of the Virtual Gravity comes the Virtual Gravity Nano. With the stronger coverstock you will see more midlane motion with a much higher entry angle. Don’t get left out on this one!

The Storm Virtual Gravity was one of the most successful and best selling balls of all time, we just made it better. More aggressive. More strikes. The Storm Virtual Gravity NANO!

Storm is known for producing the best high performance balls on the market. When the Virtual Gravity was released in 2008, it not only turned heads but gave bowlers of all skill levels an unprecedented amount of hook on even the oiliest lanes imaginable. The new Virtual Gravity Nano is intended to create a similar yet stronger ball motion built specifically for heavy oil. This can be accomplished with either a stronger coverstock (texture) or more aggressive weight block (lower radius of gyration or increased differential). As the original Virtual Gravity quickly became Storm's all-time best seller, the new Nano is sure to follow in its footsteps...and yes, those are big shoes to fill! Looking at the original Virtual Gravity, the Shape-Lock HD weight block/core system produced a fast-revving action that especially helped bowlers looking for a stronger change of direction usually privy to only those with big rev rates! The Shape-Lock HD motor will continue to power the Nano as well. A breakthrough in coverstock technology rarely happens due to the complex nature of chemistry and polymer science. But Storm's research and development team is committed to maintaining the "pole position" in bowling innovation, so it's no surprise that we are changing the game yet again with the new NRG cover. With Nanotechnology, NRG will give bowlers increased oil traction due to the micro-dynamic enhancements of the surface. Just looking at the surface of the new NRG material shows you the increased surface texture between the peaks and valleys, as well as the more aggressive edges on the top of the peaks! We're continuing to push the envelope we just hope you are ready for it.

The Storm Virtual Gravity NANO is currently selling for $159.95 and rates a 224.3 on the bowlingball.com Perfect Scale®.

Storm Victory Road

Look for this new release 1/11/11

We were looking for a versatile piece with a strong motion down lane. As we designed the new Victory Road, we first considered the core and then the coverstock.

The success of the original Hy-Road was due in part to the core shape that created a roll pattern with ample flare that just seemed to always get the job done. And while it can be challenging to improve upon perfection, the inverted Fe3 technology in the new Victory Road does just that.

Wrapping the re-engineered Fe3 weight block with the proper shell material is essential to realizing the benefits of both! So we chose the reliable and proven R2S material for its ability to handle a wide variety of lane conditions. With the Victory Road's straight pearl mixture, you'll go deep in the pocket while reaching shallow into your pockets!

The Storm Victory Road is currently selling for $123.95 and rates a 185.5 on the bowlingball.com Perfect Scale®.

Storm Marvel

Look for this new release 1/11/11

In order for the new Marvel to live up to its name, we used the reputable R2Xcoverstock, a strong solid reactive blend made famous on the original Virtual Gravity. With the chosen 2000-grit Abralon finish, R2X manages the midlane like a champ, and if you listen to Norm Duke's interviews you will hear him talk about transition and break point. These key points are DIRECTLY related to the surface of the ball, the most critical part as it actually touches the lane!


Looking inside the new Marvel, the Centripetal core's unique shape has several advantages for both ball driller and bowler. Pro shops love the fact that this core produces similar motion with a variety of layouts. At the same time, bowlers love the fast-revving, low RG design that creates more total ball motion.

Storm Natural Pearl

Filed Under: New Releases by Jimmy Martin — Leave a comment
October 19, 2010

The Storm Natural Pearl is the ultimate ball for short and light volume patterns. It will allow you to keep the ball in play better and still have hitting power at the pins.

Sometimes taking it old school is what it takes to win! The Storm Natural Pearl is everything that's good about bowling technologies past blended with the newest innovations.

Bowling ball technology has advanced at a furious pace over the past 20 years. We've seen huge moves forward in the development of new weight block shapes, core designs, coverstock materials, and more. Most often, this technology will help you reap the benefits in your league and tournament competitions.

But not all lane conditions are conducive to Premier Line equipment with all the coverstock technology needed for maximum traction. Some competitive oil patterns are short with very clean backends and some lane surfaces, especially wood, have an extreme amount of wear and built in friction.

The U2S pearl urethane coverstock is a modern generation form of the original urethane made popular in the 80s. What once was used to create more hook and friction as it developed out of the polyester era, urethane has the ability to tame over-reacting backends without sacrificing hitting power, or coefficient of restitution.

And if you've ever doubted the hitting power of the Natural, just ask Rhino Page who is the reigning Viper Pattern champion on the PBA tour. Try one today. You'll become a believer.

Reign Supreme

September 14, 2010

I don’t know if this is supposed to replace the Hy-Road, which by far has become one of the most popular balls on the market. But, the Reign Supreme is still going to be a ball that draws a lot of attention. Storm’s Hybrid covers are some of the best covers on the market in my opinion and around the C.A.M. core how can you possibly go wrong.

It's time to take control of the lanes and Reign Supreme!

Looking at the original Reign and Reign of Fire, you'll find R2S surrounding the uniquely- contoured C.A.M. (Continuous Axis Migration) weight block. This combination of coverstock and core helps fit a multitude of needs. Looking at major national and international tournaments, the Reign series has been a foundation for bowlers across the globe. The new Reign Supreme will feature the same C.A.M. weight block but showcases a finely-blended hybrid shell. Bowlers looking for a clean glide through the heads with a smooth transition in the midlane will cherish the R2S Hybrid shelljust ask anyone who has owned a Hy-Road! You'll be sure to see the benefits as Storm helps you become a dominating force of your league or tournament, or anytime you hit the lanes. In conclusion, Storm continues to develop innovative technology combined with fine workmanship. That's why we are The Bowler's Company.

The Storm Reign Supreme is currently selling for $126.99 and rates a 173.8 on the bowlingball.com Perfect Scale®.

Storm Anarchy

Filed Under: New Releases by Jimmy Martin — Leave a comment
September 14, 2010

The Storm Anarchy is designed to create more motion on the back part of the lane. Bowlers that lack in axis rotation will absolutely love this ball. I am really looking forward to this release.

Don't take nothin' from nobody... make your own rules with the Storm Anarchy!

With a commitment to innovative core design development, it's no wonder that Storm continues to push the envelope with shapes like the C.A.M. and Centripetal weight blocks. While the Invasion is developed for the heaviest of oil patterns, oil depletes quickly as proven by Kegel and Storm in a cooperative seminar series earlier this year. So, the goal of the new Anarchy is to develop a high-end strong asymmetrical that is clean through the heads and turns over sharp at the break point, even for bowlers without all the revs of the tour guys. With 25 years of experience in coverstock chemistry starting with U-Clean U-Score, Storm is the industry leader of high performance bowling balls. Premier Line balls like the new Anarchy all feature strong asymmetrical shapes that are engineered from concepts different from the industry standard. It's what sets Storm apart from the competition. Looking at the Origin core, we find a strong asymmetrical design that is dynamic and contoured to maximize usability. Wrapping the Origin core with R3X coverstock material, the shell is designed to maximum surface texture which increases overall ball motion. The polished finish of the new Anarchy ensures a glide through the heads and strong backend motion that we all love. In conclusion, Storm continues to develop innovative technology combined with fine workmanship. That's why we are The Bowler's Company.

The Storm Anarchy is currently selling for $157.99 and rates a 217.3 on the bowlingball.com Perfect Scale®.
