If you are a PBA member, then you would have the link.

These are not offers for the general public.

Somebody give me a reason to buy the Virtual Gravity, please.  I've been waiting for a solid version of the Gravity, but I bought a Dimension earlier.  This ball would be a lot more rolly though.  Decisions decisions.

Anyone in the know...Is the R2S Hybrid the same solid/pearl hybrid reactive that was on the Sure Fire or some form of particle/pearl hybrid?

Thanks,
Jeff

Just got my staff letter on the VIRTUAL GRAVITY and the HY-ROAD.

VIRTUAL is described as most angular ball Storm has ever made for heavy oil. Comes 4,000 Abralon. It's a solid R2X coverstock around the Shape-Lock HD weight block used in the Gravity Shift. Staff letter says tests show a 1-2 foot earlier breakpoint with a 3-4 board increase of overall coverage compared to the Dimension.

HY-ROAD is a hybrid of the T-ROAD SOLID and PEARL. Staff letter says little more angular than T-ROAD PEARL when shiny and between two balls with 2,000 Abralon surface.

Order in and when I get mine I will have reports out. You'll probably see them on Tour TV show first.
