Another "NEW" cover from Big B on the wild ride?  What happened with PlaZma, EnMotion and XLerator?  Guess one of these is bound to be a winner.

They are attempting to fill any holes in the company line up. Plazzma was for heavy oil, because they didn't want to keep the Ultimate Inferno in the line up forever. Look at what Storm does, they keep using the same R2S cover stocks with slight tweaks to try and fill their bowlers needs. Instead of telling people it's a new cover stock they just tell the public it is "the same R2s Coverstock from (fill in the blank) with such and such a additive to do this for the bowler.This is what Brunswick is attempting to accomplish for their bowlers. They just tell us ahead of time its a totally new cover stock.

yea just noticed that hmmm maybe same cover just a different name something that sells better. but that also would make things a little confusing when comes time to buy a ball. different balls with different coverstocks which ones right for me?

Go to stormbowling.com and read or watch any of the material on their site. Steve Kloempkin tells you it. They love their R2S , and with good reason. It's all marketing.

Not pushed back to the 19th, that was the intended Universal Release date all along. We are getting the samples out to staffers and all shops that are Pro Source members as we speak. Shops will be able to get them on the 19th and beyond.............and then It's ON.
