from storm or do you want a ball from any company? I have to tell you, the storm XXX factor has the same numbers as the origional X factor. It has the new tripple disk weight block and a stronger cover, but i would choose that. But, the new fired up seems as though it has a nice move to the pocket, its cheaper and i think that it might give you the same look as the X-factor with mots of money to spare.

X factor.  Thought I saw one on Ebay used with a nice drilling.

AND I just got one!  Not for sale.

El Nino Wrath is in between X factor and Triple X in my opinion.

Yes I just got my second one of those coming!

One of the guys in our tricky house is still shooting lots of 7s with his El Nino Wrath 5 years after release!

PS Wrath is still a very popular ball in our area!

I thought about the Tripple X but appears that it would be a little stronger compared to the X Factor?

The XXX is stronger, and not as smooth.  I've been trying to replace mine for a while now.  My boss at the shop says the Hot Rod Hybrid has the same reaction shape to it.  I had a Recharge, and that acts a lot like the X did too.  I'm drilling a Fired Up here pretty soon, so I'll see what that does and let you know.

kj300 r u crazy???? $150 for a ball that is discontinued, but can still be found?  Besides, that ball was never even that high at cost.  Is your X-Factor made by Lane #1?

I hated the X Factor, but I LOVE my Triple X. The Triple X matches up to me very well where as the X Factor didn't.

It's a case of supply and demand. The ball will be worth that much once the NIB balls are gone.
