spitfire vs. thunderstruck solid vs. paradigm
« on: December 04, 2006, 02:55:10 AM »
i was thinking of getting these three to add to my vapor zone and scorchin to make a five ball arensal. from what i have heard, the spitfire will be longer and weaker than the other two, and the t-stuck solid and paradigm having similar hook potential, just different reaction shapes (paradigm more angular, thunderstuck smoother).  i was just wondering for those who have all three of these or two of them how do they compare to each other in hook potential and reaction shape. and also how do they perform on sport/pba conditions (this is what i bowl on most of the time). thanks, im new to storm, going to try them out after being brunswick for a while.

I would get the Domination over the standard Paradigm...  I believe it is way more consistent, and keeps the pins much lower, which is better for carry....

If im adding 3 I would do the Paradigm/Purple Thunderstruck and a Jolt.
Paradigm=Strong Pearl VERY versatile as far as the paradigms go.Much stronger than the thunderstuck line.
SpitFire=Probably strong as the domination its a strong pearl piece

Thunderstruck=The purple is probably the smoothest breakpoint shape in the storm line this year.

Jolts=A good step down from the thunderstuck line weaker ball/weaker cover
Pearl Is longer and more angular than the solid.But both are weaker than the thunder series


If your looking for an angular ball I would do a domination or a Troad pearl they both come off the spot pretty hard.

Beware I have the Domination In my Bag So now Its time for me to dominate!

I have to disagree here...I have both and I think the original paradigm is more consistent and more versatile. The domination is very angular and for that reason it makes it much more condition specific and can be over/under on the wrong shot. It's a great ball, don't get me wrong, but I think the original paradigm is a much better all-around ball.

thanks for the input, you really think that the spitfire is as strong as the original paradigm?
