The Typhoon is the latest release in the Hot Line and it was designed for light to medium oil conditions. It has been a while since we have seen a ball in the Hot Line and the Typhoon does not disappoint. I was a huge fan of the Tropical Heat and that’s where Storm found the inspiration to design the Atmos A.I. core which has been combined with the Reactor Pearl cover. The Typhoon provides length through the front part of the lane with a controlled and consistent back end reaction that can help bowlers of all styles. The Typhoon gave me a good look sliding on 22, looking 13 at the arrows with my breakpoint around 6-7. I was able to move further left by decreasing my ball speed and it continued to look great. When compared to The Road Warrior, the Typhoon was a couple boards weaker and had a smoother back end reaction. The Typhoon may not be the first ball out of my bag for league or tournaments, but I can see it being very useful for lower speed players or high rev players later in blocks or when the lanes are really hooking. Stop by your local Storm VIP pro shop to check it out! Available on April 18th.
