Title: Storm/Roto 3-Ball Tournament Bag
Post by: thegreatone300 on November 16, 2009, 04:58:43 AM: I was just wondering how this bag holds up? I need a new bag and like the streamline look and the price on the bag. How well does it protect your bowling balls and shoes? Thanks for any input.

I would highly recommend it.

I have had one for a year and purchased it because I live upstairs and have to carry. I went for the lighter weight. I am not hard on equipment but within a year a rivet from the runners underneath has poked thru and nicked a ball sitting inside and the runners underneath have broken.

I would stay away or go with a Vise 3 ball which I also have and is a much better built bag.

Post by: Bigmike on April 20, 2010, 07:32:03 AM: I have had both of the styles. The first one had the shoe pouch and accessory kit on the side. The shoe kit slightly dragged on the ground wearing a hole in it. This is the only problem I have ever had with that style bag. I have used it 3 years in a row now to fly to USBC's and those airline baggage "handlers" beat the living crap out of that bag and it still is in one piece.

The second one or current style was nice with the extra pouchs on top. The kind and friendly airline guys broke the runner underneath on the first trip I took it on.

The nice thing about both is the wider wheel base. This makes cornering much easier.

I just bought one of the new Turbo 3 ball rollers. The shoe pouch straps on top of the bag. The wheel base is wider than the Storm/Roto ones and it corners like it has rack and pinion steering.
