Wut Da EFF? Broken Ball Bag Before Tourny
« on: April 27, 2009, 12:19:11 PM »
Hey guys, I just wanna share my story of how my ball bag broke unexpectedly right before a big tourney. Right Now, I carry around 6-7 balls to use in tournaments, and Im pulling four of them around in a 3 ball Storm Streamline with a joey bag on it, and i carry around the rest. As I was pulling my bag up the curb to the house where the tournament was held, the handle of the bag snapped off right in front of my eyes. So i looked like an idiot dragging a broken bag and other equipment around a big house. So I'm just like what the hell? How did it break? I'm 13, so yea, my mom bought me another bag. But i bowled respectfully well in the tournament, I'm only a 180 average bowler, and in the 3 game tournament, i ended up shooting a 667 series, even with my handicap, i still didn't stand a chance because of the crapload of sandbaggers. I just wanted to share my story.

Storm Streamline and a Joey does not work, it leaves 1/2" at the top of the handle for your hand.  Not being a smart rear but stream line stands for stream line. I learned the hard way, if you wan't to carry four balls buy a four ball bag.

I replaced my broken bag with a 4 ball bag, its coming in the mail, right now

Which bag did you get?

And just my thoughts on bag situations, Totes (2 or 3 ball)> Bulky Roller bags. I love how much easier it is to take a pair of two ball totes or a two and a three (the new 3 ball tote rollers are convenient) and have an accessory bag/the detachable shoe bag/accessory bag the new three ball roller totes have. But thats just me.

I know from experience that a storm 3 ball stream line is a great 3 ball bag but if you want to carry more get a 2 or 3 ball tote. If your goal is to carry 4 or 6 balls together then get a bag for that. I love my storm 3 ball stream line but it is just that, a 3 ball bag.

For USBC I am taking a Storm 3 ball tote with accessories bags and a Storm 2 ball tote. Why overload what the bags are for?

ooo man idk but for me the ebonnite rollers were always worse quality. i would've got the kr ones with the 5 year warranty.

Im so glad people are brainwashed to think that TRACK sucks. And its even funnier when im carrying with my TRACK ball and they're going flat ten with their OTHER BRANDS ball.

I just recently picked up Ebonite's new 4 ball roller.  

It's very compact compared to other four ball rollers I've had.  

The lockdown system for the top bag is the best I've seen.

So far it's held up very well.  I'd give it a look...best bag I've owned.
