The Storm Summit Ascent comes with the R2S Solid Reactive, Centripetal™ HD -A.I. Core, and 4000-grit surface. This is the newest ball in the Summit line. This Summit is the cleanest of the three so far and gets down the lane with plenty of pop. This ball reminds me of a symmetrical Absolute Power or in that area as I see it. I think this is the weakest of the 3 summits as the original summit and peak are a bit stronger. I compared it to both the Power and Peak and felt like a ball just below the Power/Peak. The Ascent seems to be a stronger IO Tour Solid due to the core being stronger with a bit more midlane. I am already liking this ball and it's going to be another home run from Storm!

Review
The Summit Ascent is the latest addition to Storm’s Master line. The Summit Ascent has combined the Centripetal HD core with R2S Solid Reactive cover stock. This combination gives the Summit Ascent a cleaner read in the midlane for a ball with a solid cover stock, which allows for versatility on house and tournament lane conditions. I tested the Summit Ascent on a 43 feet house pattern. For a mid to low rev player, I was able to play track area out to the first arrow with great success. The R2S solid cover allowed Summit Ascent to get to its break point and store a lot of energy on the backend for a continuous motion through the pins. This is a great ball for all levels of bowlers. Order one from your local pro shop today! My ball review videos are posted on YouTube channel Stanley Waite.

This ball seems like it could replace a sensor solid and have the added benefit of adding more surface to it for an earlier read. Good ball to have in the bag for tournaments
