I have a storm trifecta which I rarely use (less than 10 games) and it has a small crack in the bridge. Is it something to worry about, or as long as it doesn't get worse, not an issue?

I have an X-Factor Ace with a cracked bridge going on a year and a half or so, no problems(meaning it hasn't gotten progressively worse). Recently shot a sanctioned 802 with this ball, so I would say as long it is isn't getting worse you shouldn't have to worry about it.

I agree with what Pat said...

...However, if you are really worried about it your local pro shop should be able to place a small amount of super glue into the crack and cure it with accelerator.

Shouldn't be a problem. I have two balls ( no pun intended) that have cracked bridges.
Neither one has suffered any performance issues, and if they crack out, you can plug with CLEAR and re-drill. The reason I emphasize clear plugging is that would still leave them legal for any regional P.B.A. tournaments or qualifiers, if you wanted to shoot in one. ( At least this is what I've been told)
