Leave it to 900 Global to set a new standard of hand-craftsmanship in 2025 with the Zen 25. The Zen 25 is far more than another version of a proven core with a sharp-looking new coverstock. The Zen 25 is built from the success of the powerful Meditate Core. Then 900 Global wrapped the Meditate Core with the explosive dynamics of A.I. Technology, and when you add in the all-new RB 83 Pearl Reactive Coverstock, finished with Storm's all-new Power Edge polish, you get a hand-crafted pin-destructing missile to add to your arsenal. So, let's take a closer look at the genius behind the Zen 25.
The Meditate Core is a large, beefy, symmetric core that straighter players like me love using. The Meditate core's sheer size and density allow straighter players like me to create a motion we can depend on and the power we need to strike. The Meditate Core alone is a predictable, smooth-rolling core that generates a significant amount of energy as it heads down the lane. And when you add the power of the A.I. Core technology around the Meditate Core, you create a monster of explosive power and precision we straighter, low-rev players love to have at their disposal. And lastly, when a straighter player has that steam-rolling continuation like that found in the Zen 25, you can count on the light hits to carry, those tight hits to explode, and pin-action that keeps us in play shot after shot.
The RB 83 Pearl Coverstock is a fine-crafted blend of smooth and grit all-in-one Pearl Coverstock. As a straighter player on a fresh THS, I found the RB 83 to be a great combination of smoothness in the front part of the lane and crisp traction when it sees friction. Yet, I found that it also blends through skid, hook, and roll with a very stable motion nearly all night, which, as a straighter player, I could easily adjust to as the night went on. So, if you are a straighter player like me, you will love how RB 83 on the Zen 25 will simplify your adjustments and keep you in the pocket as the lanes transition. Lastly, I found that with Storm's Power Glide finish, the RB 83 is a very balanced cover that is predictable and stable and creates an explosive back-end motion! So, there is no doubt that the RB 83 is an excellent cover for any straighter player like me.
In closing, 900 Global has done an outstanding job of hand-crafting another great winning ball with the Zen 25. The Zen 25 is more than another Zen with a sharp-looking coverstock. Instead, the Zen 25 brings the Zen legacy to a whole new powerful level of outstanding performance to add to any straighter player's arsenal! So, stop into your local Storm VIP Pro Shop today and get ready to take the second half of your bowling season to a striking new level because the Zen 25 will deliver!
