Anyways since we kinda know the name and color of the ball. Anyone speculating as to what core? Cover is another story....(But it appears polished)
I feel we're bringing back a master line core from the past.
Is it the
Agent line core -EMC
Marvel line core -centripetal
Dimension line -Continuum core
Something new
Something else not mentioned
We know it's a "timeless" core lol but
WHAT DO YOU THINK IT IS?
MY VOTE IS CONTINUUM!
CANT SEE RESULTS UNTIL YOU VOTE!
-
It's a La Nina!
-
I only just saw teaser video yesterday (guess I don't follow storm activity that closely). With the way they are setting it up, it would be a joke if it was a resurrection of an old core.

I guess. I'm fine with a new one. But I don't dig alot of the new stuff.
-
is the Hy-Road 300 the Belmo ball, or just another new piece?

His new ball is the timeless
-
What color did they choose because I just saw the vote for it last night on facebook. They say the vote just started. I forgot when voting end. Belmo also said it was the perfect ball for two handers(gimmick to sell).
-
I saw that Storm/Belmonte will be doing a live broadcast on FB today at 3pm eastern. Maybe more info on this ball?
-
For what it's worth everyone on Facebook is claiming it won't be the timeless.....still think it probably will be but at least this has my interest
-
If you want to see timeless in action, watch the YouTube 2016 Storm Domino Pizza SBS Korea Bowling Cup. Both Belmo and Danielle are throwing. Also their competitors are throwing Star Locks.
-
It's a new core. I saw the picture of it and the specs last night.
-
if u saw specs is it the timeless?
-
It's the timeless....r2s hybrid with a core labeled dual-drive

Correct

Already up on their website.
-
timeless and torrent so im guessing sure lock is overseas too this overseas stuff is ticking me off
-
Timeless = Hy-Road with more diff.
Torrent = Blend between RocketShip and Phaze II.
Probably getting one of them.
-
The inception of the Dual-Drive was born of a sprawling development process that has spanned years. This could not be achieved without placing a weight block of specific size and shape inside of another weight block. The outer weight block incorporates strategically placed geometric shapes that, in conjunction with the inner weight block, establishes a new standard in bowling ball motion – faster revving action with a higher level of energy transfer at the pins.
Hmm... kind of interesting.

Before I seen the pic of the core I was like, they hid the Hy-Road weight block inside "another core" and released the same ball in a different color lol.
-
This also marks the start of their new Signature Line. Has Belmo on the ball...
-
I have to give credit where credit is due. No other company has the ability to create the leg humping, over promotion and meaningless drivel that Storm generates when they release a new ball.

I agree ... You got that right Milo...,

I agree. Got to give credit. Storm seems so oversaturated right now. Look at the thunder line now: HyRoad, HyRoad Pearl, Fight, Street Fight, Rocket Ship, and Torrent.
Hell you can group the Timeless in with those also. 7 balls that fit in a similar spot of their lineup

That Timeless will be Premier level pricing I bet.
-
So much R2S, so little market space left to cram it in...
-

I was telling my buddy the whole purpose of creating a "signature" line was to charge more. I told him it'd be premier level price and sure enough bowling ball.com has pre-order price of $169
-
So I guess everyone wants more Syncs, Zero Gravities, Fights, Phazes (OG), IQ regular, etc. Personally, I'd rather have good stuff instead of new crap.
-
For $170 I'll pass....considering I could find something along the same shape for a lot less
-
So the upshot here is yet another attempt to replace the hyroad? Only with a slightly higher diff, a mechanical signature and a higher price tag.

Pretty much. This is why I've gone away from Storm
-

But it's a completely new shape!
;D
I'm still kind of intrigued about the ball having and inner core and an outer core (not filler). Will be interesting to see if it catches on. That is actually something new. I think.
-
Though, there are those bowlers who will have a boner after seeing this......

I will admit that the color scheme is great to me and I think it could be a great ball, but is it worth it at that price?

how much is it?
-
Pre order prices are showing the same as premier line (Lock/Snap Lock) @ $169

but does it come with a free 3 ball tote?!?!?!?
-
Was just thinking this lol.

Hey now, that promotion was just extended until the end of March. :)
If Storm did something like that with this ball they might run out of 3-ball totes.
-
The whole whoring of BelMonte and the logo on the ball is weak to me. That alone will ensure I won't get this ball. Just seems cheesy, like engraving your initials or having colored grips in your ball. Just screams dork. Like showing up with two single ball rollers.

I have to agree with that...very disappointed.
-
I resemble the colored inserts *angry face* !!! Pink inserts have meaning to me. ;)
-
I have bright green inserts in my stuff because it helps me see which ball is mine on the rack without picking up everyone else's equipment. And I certainly don't want to stick my thumb in someone's ball that I don't know. After knowing a guy with a reoccurring hand fungus that dries and cracks his hands...

I love putting double dual angle layouts on balls. Some would call this the quad angle layout. But it just doesn't have the same ring to it.

Can I still vote?

nothing is ever free!

I beg to differ!!! Brunswick is throwing in a FREE 3 ball bag with the purchase of the Quantum's. But the ball itself does cost more than any other ball on the market. And if anyone has noticed, all Brunswick family high ends are costing the same or more than Motiv, which is still made in Michigan. ;)
