Title: Hy-Road
Post by: VideoBallReviews on October 26, 2008, 11:14:30 AM
So after seeing Norm make the lanes look stupid easy with this piece, who else is chomping at the bit to throw this?

I know i LOVED both my t-road solid and pearl...

Congrats to Norm on Back to Back to Back majors!

Not getting this ball but it looked like an awesome piece, I thought it was dulled T-Road pearl the whole show it looks so close cannot tell the difference.

This might be my first Storm ball ever owned! Duke sure was money today. All Duke had to do was stay behind it and let the ball do the rest.

While watching TV, I was trying to figure out what the ball Duke was throwing.  When I found out it was the Hy-Road, I was impressed.  Very controllable and strong reaction.  It will definitely be on my list of bowling balls to buy.

Norm Duke really likes mid-priced equipment!  On occasion you will see him roll the high end equipment but a majority of the time it's mid-priced balls that seem to work the best for him.

Missed it, darn.  Had family stuff & forgot to dvr it.  Will catch it today on Classic.  Yeah, I've noticed that Norm likes both the high end & mid priced stuff & makes them all look high end, LOL.  Congrats to him & Storm.  Good to see him/them start off w/a bang.  A Major.  Now 3 in a row for Norm.

Duke is sooooooooooooooo good that I think he could roll a rock down the lane and strike.

As soon as I win a free ball from Jeff Carter's Club 300, this is what I will be trying.

I saw one in action last night thrown by Ole Rerack of Buddies. Very, very impressive. Gamebreakers, Twisted Furys (both), Cells (both), Momentum Swings, Hammer products, etc. all carried questionable on a broken down house shot, Hyroad was awesome. Ole Rerack makes most everything look good but this one looked special. I haven't had a Storm ball since original Thunder Road, will be looking into this one.

Norm is just the midget king pimp with a bowling ball! He won with the AMF Triumph a few years back when no one touched the ball. He make Storm look sicker than others. Norm is just filthy.

 Yeah, I hate STORM ( it just doesn't fit what I do. And yes, I've had plenty of them), but Duke made it look so good, even I almost wanted one.

I just pre-ordered mine.  I figure I am allowed one new bowling ball this season, so why not try a Storm?

Does anyone know if this ball has a MB marking, or is it just the pin and cg?

It's a symmetrical core, therefore just pin and CG.
