Got a chance to throw Storm's new release the Virtual Energy tonight.
See layouts here
http://www.videoballreviews.com/virtualenergy.htmlI threw both VE's in practice, and decided to go with the 4.5 x 4.5 x 2 VE because i liked the way it was going through the pins
This ball comes off the dry with some authority. It is everything i thought it would be and more. Cleaner through the front than a virtual gravity...good midlane read, and it absolutely unleashes a ton of energy (pun intended) coming off the back of the pattern. This ball fits right in between the Virtual Gravity and the Gravity Shift as far as reaction goes.
Comparing to a Hy-Road, its exactly what i wanted to see...same midlane read with a more agressive, more angular move in the back...this ball and the hy-road will make a hell of a 1-2 combo.
Shot 236 with a flagged 10 pin, 299 with a ring 10, it was there...and 185 with 3 opens, Should of switched and/or got deeper, but i got new ball syndrome
IN MY OPINION - this ball will match up just as well if not better than the Virtual gravity for all styles of bowlers. It will give everyone an option when their Virtual Gravity starts to hook early or lose too much energy.
It will give casual and tournament bowlers alike the motion they love to see. Length, midlane read, powerful continuous backend move.
i am very anxious to try some surface changes with this ball and see what it can do with more surface. If this ball takes to surface changes as well as the Hy-Road, and proves to be just as versatile, it will be a MUST HAVE for all bowlers.
