Storm's The Lab Series represents the pinnacle of bowling ball innovation, crafted for bowlers who demand the absolute best performance. Engineered in a laboratory where boundaries are meant to be broken, the Level is the first release in this groundbreaking series. Every ball in the Lab Series embodies relentless experimentation, meticulous refinement, and the use of revolutionary materials and designs. The standout feature of the Level is the cutting-edge Equalizer A.I. Core, a breakthrough in bowling ball core technology. This unique design combines a tall, low-density weight block with advanced A.I. Core Technology. By carefully engineering the core’s density, the RG (radius of gyration) value is increased, allowing the ball to take longer to respond to friction. Traditionally, low-density cores sacrifice differential, but the Equalizer A.I. Core compensates with innovative cuts in the weight block’s midsection and an elongated shape. This creates a higher total differential than typically seen in cores of similar density and size. The result is one of the smoothest transitioning cores Storm has ever designed—perfect for maintaining a controlled, repeatable reaction as the ball encounters friction. Complementing this revolutionary core is the all-new RPM (Regenerative Polymer Matrix) Coverstock, a material unlike anything the bowling industry has seen before. RPM offers unmatched flexibility in fine-tuning ball reactions without altering the core formula. This first iteration of RPM was specifically engineered for rapid oil absorption, providing bowlers with a faster yet more controlled response to lane conditions. Unlike traditional coverstocks, RPM breaks the usual correlation between oil absorption and friction: bowlers experience faster oil absorption with reduced overreaction to friction, creating a more predictable motion. Additionally, the proprietary additives in RPM enhance the coverstock’s surface profile, preventing the usual “lane shine” that smooths textured bowling balls over time. This innovation ensures consistent performance and surface integrity, delivering repeatable reactions shot after shot. Bowlers can feel the difference immediately—visit your local Storm VIP Pro Shop to experience it for yourself. Designed without compromise, the Level is perfect for bowlers who believe excellence has no limits. Whether you’re seeking smooth control, sharp angularity, or anything in between, the Lab Series is your gateway to unparalleled performance.

Lane Conditions: Medium Oil
Typical Conditions: 44' house shot
Type of Lane: All Synthetic
Weight of bowling ball: 15
Surface of bowling ball: Factory/Box - 1000 Abralon
Likes: Predictability, Grapple scent

My Level Layout: 60 x 3 x 45

The Level fills a gap that most bowlers have in their bag and that is a ball that is just a step up from Urethane without for . . .

Conditions I have used the Level on: 44' House shot, the Level allowed me to play fairly straigt around 12 at the arrows to around 8 at the breakpoint.

Where the Level fits in my bag: The Level is just above my 78/U.

When I use the Level: I will likely not use it on a house shot outside of shooting the video. I expect to use this on shorter patterns or flatter patterns where I want to control the pocket.

Overall, I think the Level will be a great option on shorter or flatter patterns and will offer a stronger option to those players that struggle with urethane when it is the better option for others.

I have a tournament on a 38' pattern coming up next weekend, I will post an update after I get the chance to bowl on that pattern with it.
