Title: Shock Trauma Problems
Post by: supernoodle on March 07, 2004, 07:34:36 PM
I'm currently bowling with a shock Trauma ( Supposedly heavy oil ball ) and I'm having a lot of problems with it.It is basically doing nothing and moving about half as much as my Super power (Which is polished) is this normal?

Also unlike the Pic of the ball on here mine is almost black is this normal or have I been sold a duff/blem ball?

I also did not find the Shock Trauma to be very good for heavy juice. That particular ball was very inconsistent for me. Perhaps it's burning up on you. Make sure that you're throwing it on truly heavy juice if that's what you've got it drilled and prepped for. As for the color, most balls don't look much like the pictures that Storm puts out. I doubt that you've got a blem. My shock Trauma was also nearly black. I've heard that it looks cool if you shine it up. Just a thought.

Bowling is without a doubt the dumbest, most pointless, most idiotic excuse for a game that has ever been invented. So, what time are we bowling tomorrow?

My shock trauma experience was appalling.  It was ridiculously inconsistent, no matter what I did to the ball (surface prep, hand positions) and it still was a bad reaction.  But on the plus side, the color scheme was nice, and it looked (and smelled) especially good when polished.  However, all the scents and looks in the world couldn't have helped this ball.  But that's just me, i'm definitely sure there's others that have liked theirs.
