Storm losing its touch?
« on: June 21, 2017, 01:46:21 PM »
So I know I am in the storm section. Being that i own 6 storm balls. But does anyone feel like storm is starting to losing some ground? More and more I am starting to see Motiv around everywhere. This weekend i felt like i was the only one throwing storm in an entire house. Now dont get me wrong i love storm and my next purchase will be timeless or a Code Red but i just want to get some opinions out there and see if anyone is noticing the same.
In bag: Jackal Rising, Venom Shock, Tank Rampage

Want: Venom Shock Pearl and Villan (both will be ordered)

Retired: Storm 😔

It seems like some tmof the best benchmarks that come uo, I'm fortunate to still have around. Luckily I have come to the conclusion of keeping my older pieces for rainy days that can't be replaced by these 'new guns'.

The Rocket is still going strong for me.

Perhaps I'm the only one that feels this way, but I feel like the CrossRoad was a little ahead of its time. The Hy-Road wasn't quite for Medium-Heavy anymore by the time this ball came out, but it was still very versatile and read rather well on anything medium. For me at this point, the Hy-Road is money on medium-medium light (tslking about mostly higher surfaces). Storm has used stronger cores on weaker covers in the Code series and some find that to be enough for them. I feel like the stronger cores allow the ball to read better to be thrown at higher surfaces for the clean hard arc we have become accustomed to. I didn't have the opportunity to see the Rockets used much (except the Rocketship) so I can't really provide much there.
