Title: Purple Vibe vs. Tropical Storm
Post by: tvphotog on February 22, 2007, 02:33:32 AM
I trying to figure out the difference in the two. I know they are close in reaction. My brother is looking at the Tropical Storm for dry/Flying backends and I have a Purple Vibe I could ship him. Would the Purple Vibe do the same without buying a Tropical Storm? Mine is drilled pin above the fingers, just simple label drilling.

as for the TS.......i dont have one but alot of guys on my monday night league throw them. it seems to be slightly stronger than my vibe but then again everyone is a little different.

IMO.
The Tropical Storm is stronger than the purple vibe. The vibe is a
much better dry lane ball.

The VIBE is a much better ball.  It has a better core than the tropical.

The Purple Vibe is a much better bowling ball. It would do the same thing as the Tropical Storm. And it looks good too!

Trust me, the Purple Vibe is so much better. I used to have a Tropical Storm and got rid of it because the thing curved more than my Doom and they were drilled pretty much the same.
