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

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.

I would recommend you Motiv SR2 - not an asymmetric core but good length, snappy backend reaction and good pin carry.

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.

this would be a pretty close match to the original paradigm

this would be a pretty close match to the original paradigm
I have an Xtacy (R2S pearl), Xtacy Tour (R2X pearl) and a Super Domination (R2X solid + EMT). All are stronger downlane than the domestic pieces with the same covers. The RAD+ is Storms strongest asymmetrical achieved by multiple density pucks.
I believe this causes the ball to be even stronger than the blocks that use shape to achieve asymmetry. Jmo though.
The Xtacy will give a very close motion to the original Paradigm. Domestically released Domination would be close too.

You sure it's not for you???? 15 Lbs for a woman is a big ball to be chucking.... I'm not saying, just sayin...

Thank you for your concern though.

I am guessing the guys questioning the weight ask for a 14 or 15 when they buy a new piece.

The future birthday girl talking here- 15lbs is very comfortable for me... lol even girls can throw the heavier balls! He let me in on the surprise to specifically ask me about the weight. I honestly don''''t see it being very long before I''''ll be in need of a 16 pounder, but this was my dream-ball so I can''''t ask any more of him
Ha ha, happy birthday.
As you can see by the emoticons at the end of my reply, I was kidding around & suggesting your husband (Gecko) might be wanting to borrow your ball once in awhile. My Aunt bowls & she used to throw the heavier balls. She''''s in her 70''''s now, so when she bowls she throws lighter weight. Good luck w/the Paradigm. That''''s a great birthday gift!
Mr. Straightball, relax. My post was in jest. Thought that was obvious. I haven''''t gone down to 14Lbs yet. I have inquired about them to see if anyone has lost hitting power or carry. I have carpel tunnel in wrist & arthritis starting up in fingers that have been dislocated & jammed. I still throw a 16lb spareball & once in awhile bring out my 16lb Shift. So, please, don''''t make a bigger issue out of this & keep those panties "straight".
