Asymmetric STORM BAlls
« on: August 23, 2008, 12:44:32 PM »
Greetings STORMERS

  Which STORM balls are asymmetrical? just wondering I've been throwing the "Dimension" and the "Rapid Fire" and I think these have a symmetrical core,

anyway, I am loving these STORM balls they really fit my style!

Peace

The Paradigms and Shifts are asymmetric.  Storm's had a few milder asymmetrics in the last few years with the Charge line and the Banshees but those are now discontinued.  The Tropical Storm is very mildly asymmetric, to the point that it's not even treated as one.

Thanks guys, I am thinking of trying out a "Gravity Shift" but I'll have to wait until the new season starts to see if they will but some freaking oil

Archived balls on the Storm Web Site do not say whether they are Asym. or not.

Current lineup the Premier balls (shift, gr. shift, and attitude) are Asym., and the Tropicals are barely Asym.

Previous gen. balls were the paradigms, x-factors, and super/depth charge.  Before that if you can find it go for it!

Gravity Shift would be great choice, great ball handles some oil and produces outstanding entry angle for me.
