Hi everyone!
Got a vid up of the Zero Gravity. For some reason it only works for about half of mobile users not sure why.
Anyways hope you enjoy and as always feed back is welcome :)

Ball looks like it rolls really well for you. Also...LOVE the music choice!
-
Nice! I am very interested in this ball. How does it compare to other balls for you?
-
The Zero is an absolute must have. I have a similar layout (higher revs, different PAP) but those pin down positions seem to make the Zero roll and hit beautifully!

I remain unbelieving that anyone could throw the ZG that straight without a TON of oil on the lanes.

And you'd be wrong.

FYI a "belief", by definition, cannot be wrong. It's the part of the basis of why we have freedom of religion in the US. But it may not yet be based on a total understanding of all the facts .... :)

Straight is relative. All I know for fact is that this ball allows you to get left on a medium pattern, not burn up in the fronts and still provide a very strong controllable reaction on the back end where a ball like the Hyper Cell would likely begin to lose energy on the back.

Saw the vid before reading comments, and I agree, lanes gotta be juiced somewhat...
-
The Zero is cleaner than most would be believe...it's more of a medium strong ball than like a Vertual Gravity...
-
Unlike traditional higher end solid, asymetrical balls this ball lets you chase it in and still has recovery. From an overall "strength" perspective, its not very strong and you dont need a "TON" of volume to use it.

I understand its specs (highish RG and lower RG differential) make it appropriate for medium to medium-heavy oil, but the ones I have seen still seem to hook a good deal.

Hi everyone!
Thanks a bunch for those of you that gave complements those are always appreciated!
As far as the lanes for the video went. they actually had some burn on them after 3 games of league play (4 man teams) although they were far from fried.
However the burn was to the left of where I was playing which is why I was playing further right then I would have liked for the vid.
I also backed down on "hitting" the ball some and also picked up my speed.
Its also one of the reasons I love this ball its very versatile. It gets down lane with ease before making the turn. Its one very useful solid cover for me :)
Hope everyone is having a great weekend!

So, On the Storm site, the comparison ball motion for the Zero Gravity looks very similar to the IQ Fusion.
Does anyone know how these 2 balls compare in real life? Thanks!
-
Fusion much faster or later response and less overall reaction...fusion creates wider angles
-
can you compare this to other solid releases?
Hyper Cell
Sync
Vivid
Marvel-S
Virtual Gravity Nano
Virtual Gravity
Theory
I really want this ball...how is it different? I assume its just a numbers as all of the above are typically used on the same conditions.. I have all of these, why should I buy this one?
I assume cover wise it is probably most similar to a R2X VG type reaction but what will the low diff bring that is different, and what condition will it shine on?

Hi BillDozer,
For me the Zero is later than the Marvel-s and more off the spot. More of a clean skid snap reaction but seems to do all the right things when you need a solid.
Compared to my Sync its just a whole diff ball. Sync is much earlier and very smooth rolls like you would expect out of a HP solid. The Zero is just a different reaction. Later, stronger down lane, You can keep it in your hands longer before it starts to loose energy.
Others will reply also im sure, but that's what I see compared to the two other solids I take with me :)
For me the ball just blends out patterns when its time to put the big strong early rollers away but knowing that you would get a over/under reaction with a polished cover. I can grab this one and get it down the lane but still get the hook of a solid.
As you can see in the vid even on used lanes just backing off some and picking up the speed allows this ball to still be useable.

Hey Christina! Very solid game, Nice Video! I just started making videos, check out my video of me throwing the Zero Gravity - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mv3S8VtJ2sE

Aviation Alley - I really like your video, especially since I am also a lefty. I think I am going to have to get a Zero Gravity!

Thank you -todvan- you will Love the Zero Gravity! Gets through the heads soo clean and makes a hard smooth turn on the back-end. Hit's hard and very versatile, just an all around great ball.
