Storm EUROMANIA
« on: June 05, 2008, 03:14:24 AM »
I've just found one that's for sales.... Anybody tried them before? What's the feedback? Hit like a truck ?

Seriously, what's it like?

I haven't had a storm since the X-Factor days.... so been out of touch with their recent stuff.

Thanks!

This ball is only for the european market - sorry for the totaly different european bowling lanes?!?.
Nothing special, boring blue without any smell. No great movement to the pocket, no big hook. Nothing more to say, sorry.

IMO a very underrated and misunderstood ball. It doesn't hook like crazy but has enough power to turn the corner on most conditions. I would call it Storm's Gamebreaker . All players I have drilled it for have been very satisfied. And most of them say it's the first ball out of the bag.

And all I have drilled have smelled like licorice

Thanks for the feedback. I do like the colour and logo though.

It is a very good piece, stronger than one would expect. Some of these popped up last year and I was about to get one because they went cheap. I have seen some in action, and they looked good whoever used them on medium-dry or more oil except for a flood.

Reactor solid coverstock with a strong and rolly core - OOB it is a very good ball for medium to oily lanes. Not snappy, rather with a powerful arc, even when drilled strong. I think it will be close to the T-Road Solid, probably even with slightly more hook and back end potential.

Looks wacky, esp. the logo, but a good piece!
