In the last 5 years or so, what is your favorite storm ball and why?
Post by: stormdamage on February 27, 2012, 10:52:54 PM
The Paradigm Domination. It's a BEAST!! Reads, rolls and carrys great. Also destroys the rack even on a bad Brooklyn shot. Would love a new one in the box but that's not gonna happen.

If I had to pick just one, I'd have to say the El Nino X-It. The ball just fit my style, it seemed like I could throw that ball on anything. But the Nano Pearl is in the same ballpark, I've already thrown a 300 and a lot of high series with it.

The HyRoad was my favorite, but I shot my highest scores with the Gravity Shift.

Virtual Energy hands down most versatile
Balls in the bag and order they come out:
#1/2 Nano and Anarchy #3/4- Virtual Energy/Polished VG #5-Big Hit (spare and really dry) #6- Gravity Shift
#7- Teal Rhino Pro (oldie but a goodie)

Those that can do. Those that can't complain. Pimpin ain't easy, but it's mandatory.
Most things we like, we don't need. Most things we need, we don't like. Don't confuse your likes with your needs.

VG NANO Solid.........
Best Storm ball I have ever owned and to think I obtained it by accident.

The natural has been very predictable on short and some lighter medium patterns playing down the boards. The t-road pearl is the same way, predictable.
I haven't thrown one yet but I have seen the modern marvel in action and it has a nice roll.

Nano. Ball is a beast. Second choice would be Virtual Energy.
Arsenal:
VG Nano Solid
VG Nano Pearl
Virtual Energy
Frantic
Tropical Heat Solid

Seeing as how I've only owned 2 Storm balls within the last 5 years, it's either my Team Storm spare ball, or my Crossroad. My favorite Storm piece of all-time was the Bolt Pro, though the Crossroad may take over that spot, eventually.

I'm liking my Reign a lot as well...

Hy-Road Hands down!
Love the roll of this ball. Very smooth and handles a variety of conditions. Plus I have rolled my highest series ever with it, so got to give it props for that, lol.

Toss up between the T-Road Solid and Secret Agent.
Both equally amazing!

2- Shift
3- Anarchy
4- Reign Supreme
5- Hyroad
My new Storm Tropical Breeze is really gaining my affection. Incredible ball, especially at the price point.

I am the one weirdo here but I really liked the Attitude Shift. I had mine cleaned regularly and even had it de-oiled a couple of times and this ball still rolled amazing for me. I could shine it by pad, lane shine it, or scuff it and have a ball that would get good length and good hit.
For me I think it is the core as I liked the Shift, Gravity Shift, Virtual Energy, and the original Virtual Gravity. The Nano and Nano Pearl were not my cup of tea as the covers were a lot different in my hands.
"You know Cup, I once played in this Pro-Am with some arse-hole, loud mouth movie star and he shot an 82. So tell me Cup, how does a great ball striker like you shoot an 83? Well, I lipped out this 4 footer on 18......"
