My Optimus Vid
« on: June 14, 2014, 09:13:04 PM »
Hi everyone!

Put together a vid with the new Optimus.
This is going to be a winner for me. I was a big fan of the Marvel Pearl and this gives me a similar look with more continuation.

That Optimus looks like a great match for your game.  It sort of reminds me of my Critical Theory with the fact that the ball is very continuous in the back except the Optimus is smoother.  As usual, another good video.

Ball reaction  looks great but not a big fan of the color . They should of just did red and white.

This video is the first one I've seen of this ball that makes me want one. I haven't seen it react this well coming out of anyone else's hand. Great video, and thanks.

Plus one on that. I think I will stick with the Marvel Pearl.

It probably just matches up better more stylistically with her. I'm sure Storm is gonna have chances for people to Demo the ball at some point. Or at least wait until you see someone locally throwing it before it's deemed a bust.

We had the Storm rep out here (Omaha) doing a demo of new stuff 2 weeks ago.  Really liked the roll on the Optimus - looking forward to picking this one up.

At my league the past few weeks I've seen an influx of bowlers using the Optimus. Especially some of the older bowlers and almost all have been using the ball to great success. Haven't heard anything but praise about this ball. I guess that is a testament to the products that Storm is putting out.

I'll say it.  I dont like it. 

Ball just pukes down lane.  I had to crush it with 4k abralon to get it to come off the spot at all.  I'll be listing mine for sale in the near future.

Just from what I've seen, this ball needs to have a pin position that makes it transition harder. This is the only pin down that I've seen that doesn't look half bad.
