The Storm !Q Tour A.I. takes the beloved performance of the original !Q Tour and pushes it to the next level with A.I. Core Technology. Retaining the proven R2S Hybrid Coverstock, this ball delivers the same legendary control and versatility that have made the !Q Tour a staple in arsenals worldwide. However, with the integration of A.I. Core Technology, it optimizes energy transfer at impact, expanding the strike window and enhancing pin carry for unmatched consistency and power. At the heart of this innovation is the upgraded C3 A.I. Core, refining the trusted low RG, medium differential design with an advanced outer core that maximizes energy efficiency. The result? Effortless revs, a smoother transition at the breakpoint, and a more effective release of stored energy—giving you greater predictability and a stronger finish on the lanes. The R2S Hybrid coverstock, a fan favorite from the !Q Tour Fusion, ensures a clean path through the heads while delivering a controlled yet powerful backend reaction. To top it off, the Power Edge Polishing Compound enhances surface longevity and performance, offering a perfect blend of traction and responsiveness. Whether you're a tournament bowler looking for a reliable benchmark reaction or a league player seeking an edge in consistency, the !Q Tour A.I. is built to elevate your game—shot after shot.

The iQ Tour is the newest addition to receive the cutting-edge AI outer core upgrade. Storm recently retired the Ruby iQ Tour, introducing the iQ Tour AI as its successor—this time swapping out the pearl coverstock for the dynamic R2S Hybrid. Fans of the Hy-Road, a standout since 2008 and one of my personal favorites, will recognize this same R2S Hybrid coverstock. With the AI-enhanced C3 Core, the ball now boasts a slightly lower RG and a boosted differential. Paired with the hybrid coverstock and the Power Edge finish, the iQ Tour AI picks up the lane a touch earlier while delivering a smooth, powerful continuation through the back end. Whether I’m playing straight on fresh oil or swinging deeper as the lanes transition, this ball performs with impressive consistency and versatility.

Storm IQ Tour AI Ball Review
Layout-VLS 4.5x4x2
Surface-Poweredge
RG-2.48
Diff-.031
Symmetrical Core
Storm IQ Tour AI features the C3 core with AI Technology wrapped with the R2S Hybrid coverstock.The C3 weight block has been used on all the IQ Tour series balls.So we have an IQ Tour Fusion with storm's modern technology.
Iq Tour AI will be a great ball to handle lane transistion but still have that IQ legendary control.
For me the IQ Tour AI will fit between the Phaze AI and the Road Warrior.It will be longer than Phaze AI but not as long as the Road Warrior but with a good contination on the backend.
The IQ Tour AI will be a great compliment to the OG IQ Tour Solid with more length and a sharper backend.
IQ Tour AI will be available on March 21st!!!!!!!!!!!
