The Parallax is the newest piece from Storm. It has an all new weight block that has a hollowed out section which aims to produce consistent reaction of off the breakpoint. My initial impression is that this ball is different from what Storm has made in the past. This ball is smooth for a hybrid covered ball. Hybrids in the past have been strong down lane but the Parallax has a strong midlane read. Another thing I noticed is how fast the Parallax revs up in front of the pins. I'm no scientist so I'm not sure if this is visual or mathematical but it does seem to increase the pin carry. This ball will be good on the house patterns and the medium/heavy oil patterns.
