Is this ball even out yet?  It isn't on Storm's site.

It is... in the international section: http://www.stormbowling.com/intl/ball3.asp?sid=60

Pretty, but for Asian markets.

Hang on.. This is an international ball??

If so, why is Storm sending information on it to US pro shops??

The international ball is not the same as the US one though...  If you look at the bowling.com site the US one is more of a blue pearl color and the logo looks entirely different.

The US Ice Storm I thought was supposed to come out with the Attitude Shift but my pro shop was saying that they haven't seen it yet.  I am guessing there is some kind of delay in getting it out.

If my eyes didn't deceive me, a "representative" of cheapbowlingballs.com used the Ice Storm in a tournament Sunday on a burnt Cheetah pattern and made the ball look pretty good.

We got our VIP ball in last week...definately a nice looking ball, but bright.  I still wish that they would bring back the old Spare Storms.
