Storm Reign....
« on: April 24, 2009, 01:56:07 AM »
Does anybody know what this ball is?  Pearl or ???  I read in a different thread it's going to be in the Thunder line, but it didn't say what it is.  Looks like a pearl but can't tell if it's hybrid or not.

I thought on Buddies it said Pearl?

If it's a Pearl I hope it doesn't replace the T-Road Pearl becuase i love that ball.  If so, it better be better than the T-Road Pearl, that's all i gotta say.

It wouldn't make sense to be a hybrid as they have the successful Hy-Road.


Better than the T-Road Pearl or not, everything in that line other than the Hy-Road is gone.

The ball has some bling. With that name I am surprised it wasn't released in the Roto Grip Relm If you had just shown me the picture and said it was made in Utah I would have guessed it was the new Sword Line ball. Perhaps it replaces the Rapid Fire in the Fire line?

Like I posted in another thread, reverse the order of the names and you get "Reign Storm (rainstorm)." Now it fits perfectly, like the old Thunder Storm and Lightning Storm balls.

Yep, I picked up on that - but what will the other new ball in this line be called? You have rain = Reign, sleet = ?, snow = ?, wind = ?, and hail = Hail.

I am having trouble thinking of a storm sounding name that can be spelled several ways. Since they have a Fire line of balls Storm has to be careful not to blur ball line image.

Hail would seem to be the best bet since it has more than one meaning - JMO

Maybe they aren't making a play on the word "Reign" but using the words meaning literally. A literal use is fitting considering the year they had on tour.

Reign = Surpreme power dominance

This thread is starting to look like the "Uranus" thread on the Roto forum!

So, if I may summarize all these posts, basically, no one knows squat, except the picture on Buddies' web site.

I thought it was an interesting looking ball, but I was surprised that Buddies had no info on it except the picture.

Now, there's all this guessing to little or no effect except to, I suscept, raise the level of interest in it. I figured someone would know something and leave a small hint, which can only be to Storm's benefit, but, I got down to reply #47 and ...  bupkis.

FWIW - I might get a few tidbits of info on this ball tomorrow.  Hard to say though since the release date is still more than 3 months away.
