I have shot more 300's and 800's with the Reload than any of the Storm balls, I have drilled up 6 of them and have at least 10 honor scores with them. All drilled identical and sold them the day after an honor was shot.

I never liked the eraser line up as it was too skip flippy for me, for those it worked for they really loved the reaction. I know nothing of your track or span or pitches or axis to give any advise on a layout.



Have fun with it however you lay it out.

Because I never want it to be one particular ball or the feel of one ball, when you buy them at my cost it is easy to sell them for $120 after an honor score or 2 weeks later.

I'll take my Flash Point, not the most loved ball out there, but for me, it's my #1. Razor Wire a close second.

the x-factor until the core went blah, for lighter oil my flash point is controllable I woulda had a 800 in a tourney if not for two solid 8s in the whole.  For heavier oil currently I like my depth charge its just a monster of a ball...more so than my fear factor...

Highest scores I've shot with my Hot Wire, but probably my favorite Storm ball would be the El Nino Wrath.

My original X-Factor drilled 5.75 X 4 high pin (Pin X RAD)
It is by far the most versatile ball I have ever rolled.

If you get caught in the Storm Track beware it could be a Typhoon or Monsoon with Rolling Thunder and Lightning Flashes that when Unleashed may send splintered Wood flying everywhere.

i agree with azguy...it is by far got to be the flash point for me. i just dont get why yall all haten on the ball. need to just go get one and put it on the lane and watch that avg shoot up.

I know this is not a "Flash Point" thread, but I just don't understand why there is so little out there about the Flash Point. I realize each house is different, nights that lanes are way different, but for me, and I'm so not a pro, the Flash Point is a very controllable, forgiving ball.
I'll be quiet now...my 2 cents are up.

Two favorites in my arsenal:

Original Trauma, for GREAT pin carry (Accu Tread pearl coverstock)

Eraser Particle Pearl, being THE ball for short patterns with a clean backend
