Balls like Paradigm that arent Paradigm
« on: January 03, 2010, 08:19:43 AM »
I've been looking for the Storm Paradigm ball for awhile now and can't find it anywhere. So I was wondering what other balls have the same backend reaction that the Paradigm has.

p.s. balls do not have to be Storm company.

Storm has a number of international balls that use the weight block (RAD+).  None use the EOX cover.  They all use a version of the reactor.

Check out this link  http://stormbowling.com/products/balls/exclusive

pretty much all the balls with Domination in the name are pearls with the RAD+ core.

Don't if any will get you the reaction that you are looking for but they may be worth looking at.

Although I had 2 Paradigms and both "died" after a short time I would buy me another one. It reminded me on my Storm X-Factor reloaded (awesome beast).
I would recommend you Motiv SR2 - not an asymmetric core but good length, snappy backend reaction and good pin carry.

The Paradigm is for a birthday present to my girl and I already tried the different ball but same reaction plea, but its the colors and smell of the Paradigm that she loves. So I'm trying, with the help of you all to find the Paradigm or the next best ball for her style of bowling. Which involves a great deal of back end movement the way she throws it.

And to think, you could be reading something important instead of this.

Closest ball in the current Storm lineup to a Paradigm is a Virtual Energy - hands down.  Ball roll will be similar but the VE will hook a few boards more than a Paradigm.

If you want to take this a bit further I'd suggest you follow pin-smasher's advice.  Any of the overseas Domination balls has the same core as the Paradigm but with variations of R2X wrapped around it.
