I like that color scheme. Looks like a new solid cover too. Will be interesting to see how it compares to the Alpha Crux.

The Catalyst core is coming back? Did the agreement with Mo end?

I just decided this past week to replace my Alpha Crux as it was just too used to be a top end ball anymore, and with this coming out I think I'm set.

I wanted to say it was fine and ok since the alpha. The issue was between the pearl and the alpha release....hence the longer gap. Now you're just appeasing the pba pros many prefer this core over the lock and halo balls I'm sure... We're due for a solid hyper cell again... 😂😂😂

WTF?  I was hoping for another ball with the Physix core. ..... a pearl perhaps.

Yeah aside from the text actually saying, this screams PBA gear for the start of this jam packed 2019 season. I won’t personally see conditions I can use it on enough to warrant its purchase.
Current Rotation:
PhysiX
Code X
Code Black
Axiom Pearl
Phaze III
Trend

"The design almost every Storm PBA tour player was demanding to be brought back."
Rarely has a ball company been so honest about the intended market segment  ;D

So glad! I saw Alpha's everywhere the last 2.5 years. And the pros have them for all the big tournaments on tour.

Would this ball be stronger than the Surelock or a step below or its equal ? I missed out on the Alpha Crux and the Crux so I don't want to let this one slid by if it could be all that. Thx

Don't know yet. The SPEC coverstock is brand new. Maybe Luke has some insight. Otherwise it's wait-and-see. My guess is that it won't be an Alpha Crux clone even though that's what most actually want.
