As anticipated.  Lucid cover with the Sync Core @ 1500+polish.  Hopefully is a US release.

Some international balls have a scent.  It makes more sense for it to be international, at least for right now as the Lucid continues to have a lot of sales and a lot of success.  Nano pearl has been discontinued, and won't be missed.

And as expected, the freakn frantic is the fringe is the 2fast reborn.

Speed road is nothing more than a rehashed Victory Road Solid.

Cheech

Yeah I know. But storm did something similar in the marvel series. Plus the speed road would be using the federal 3 inverted

I love the oil pattern overlay on the video.  You can really see it grab when it comes to the end of the pattern.

I have to say, if I was bowling PBA stuff, or 900 Global went under, I would jump on the Storm bandwagon like nobody's business. I wasn't a fan of the way the Vivid and Lucid (Although, IMO, the Lucid was much better than the Vivid) rolled in other people's hands. The Sync is something special. Looks to me like it rolls like a Bank SRC core. I could probably get away with 6, and cover almost everything, but I know I wouldn't stop at 6 lol.

What is interesting to me is that you don't see the Sync on TV, other than Terrell Owens.  You are seeing the Defiant Souls, Lucids, Disturbeds, IQ Tours. I suspect it is the sticky NRG cover. When they actually do release an ERG version, then maybe we will see more of them.

Well, I like the motion. Once everyone burns up the track area, I could see going to the IQ series, or something weaker, no doubt.

The last time i saw a nrg/micro bite ball on tour was belmo from years ago. Vg nano. I personally think the defiant soul rolls so well because of the pure reactive cover. I would have thought that storm would make a hybrid cover polished before another pearl. An nrg/erg would be very unique. 3 colors with two of them being pearl. This hasn't been used since the infinite theory/virtual energy(assymetric).

Since the sync pearl isn't coming here, it still leaves room for a hybrid later this year.

I'm not convinced it's only an International release.

Here's two more videos for those interested. These two asian dudes have a little bit some more hand than that other guy.

Thank you for finding about this!
I've been trying to decide between Sync and Brutal Nightmare but now I'm thinking about Sync Pearl and BN...

Did anyone notice on the video it says 50,000 Yen....... for Sync Pearl  :o

Which again, makes sense when given the high success of the Lucid.

Lame.  Hopefully...they make a different pearl one?

Well, they only have three balls in their Premier line right now, the Sync, Lucid and Vivid. So, something is coming between now and September. With a pearl and two solids in the current lineup, a hybrid maybe?

That's too bad that this is only an international release. 

Does anyone have info on where you could buy one of these balls?  Cliff Barnes pro shop is a good place to go for Ebonite Intl and Dynothane international stuff.  Is there a similar site for Storm stuff?
