The new Storm Dark Code brings back the Rad 4 Core from the original Code Series balls but with a new enhanced pearl coverstock the REX.  The REX Coverstock is a combo of the NEX and R2S coverstocks to form a new reaction that gives you the strong midlane read of the NEX cover with the angular backend of the R2S cover.  This coverstock and Core combination give quite a unique reaction in the Storm Lineup.  Not only can this ball handle oil, but it still gives you the backend you expect from a Storm Pearl ball.  For me, I would use this ball on heavier oil house patterns or on high volume sport patterns of various lengths.  This ball is a good step down from the Proton Physix or Incite which will give longer length and more angle in the back end.  If you have/had a Code Black, you will see a stronger midlane motion in the dark code while still giving that same angular backend motion.  Compared to the Parallax Effect, the Dark Code will again give you an earlier read on the lane while providing a slightly more angular back end motion.
