Compared to IQ Tour Pearl
The Storm IQ Tour Fusion was one of the most anticipated released in Storm's history. After the success of the IQ Tour and the IQ Tour Pearl, the future of the IQ series was exciting and truly is FUSION. I found that the 1500 polished out of the box surface was a little bit uncontrollable for my personal game on a house pattern, so we changed the surface to 3000 abralon to give me a little bit more predictability off of the breakpoint. However, out of the box I was able to use it on the WTBA Atlanta pattern and strike at will playing straight up 8. Unfortunately I have not gotten the privilege of throwing the IQ Tour Solid but I did have success at the end of last year with the IQ Tour Pearl (299, 801). I was very excited to throw the Fusion and it was everything I had hoped it would be and more. I love that it rolls just a little earlier than the Pearl but is even more continuous through the pins. It keeps pins low and throws them all around the deck. If you don't have a Fusion you definitely want to get out and buy one and if you already have one you should go out and buy another one to put away for a rainy day. The future is FUSION!
