Next Ball?
« on: July 09, 2008, 12:29:33 PM »
Ok I'm only 12 years old. And I have a bet with my mom that if i bowl 250+ I get a new ball. I really like Storm and imp looking at the Rapid Fire Pearl. The main reason would be is that I have a Solid a Hybrid and I want a Pearl. Watch my videos that are in my signature and then look at the current arsenal I have. Keep in mind that I have been bowling for 2 years. Give me some ideas on other Storm Bowling Balls that will fit me best.

MY CURRENT ARSENAL  
  • STORM SPECIAL AGENT  
  • STORM SECRET AGENT
  • STORM ICE STORM  

BOWL UP A STORM The ball used in the video is a Secret Agent

Rapid Fire Pearl would probably work fine for you.

At 12/13 lbs all that really matters is the ball cover - not the core.  You have a solid R2S, hybrid particle R2S so far.  I don't think you can go wrong with an R2S pearl.  Get either a Rapid Fire Pearl or a T-Road Pearl.  They will be almost exactly the same at that weight.  Decide between the two by price or color.

I think it can be a good choice. Keep in mind that the reaction you get will be a real skid//snap movement. Very agressive in the backend. Make sure this is what you want/need.

Your other equipment are more control balls, with a more even reaction. If you like this, maybe it's also good to look at the Streetrod Pearl. From what i've heard, this is a little smoother.

Also, the Streetrod is one of the few storm balls that has the same weightblock for 13 LBS as for it's 14-16 pound brothers.

The best is make your own opinion and pick the best out of everybodies tips.
Then discuss it with your proshop, because they know more about your game( if it's right). Video reviews are a good way to get a first opinion on a ball.

Good luck,
