Storm Euro 2
« on: May 06, 2010, 02:31:11 PM »
I picked one of these up 15lb nib from a distributor I deal with and it didn't come with the usual info sheet as to weightblock  and coverstock. The ball is polished black/pink with Euro 2 on the side. Has anybody used this ball or saw anybody use it. The serial number indicates it was made in 2003! Thanks, Bruce

Euro STORM 2

Coverstock ACCU-Tread (solid)
Weight Block Modified Inverted 2-Piece
Ball Color Black/Pink
Ball Finish 1,500-grit Polish
Radius of Gyration 2.55 (Low)
Differential .060 (High)
Durometer 76-78 Rex D-Scale
Track Flare High (14cm Plus)

Was run for overseas 2002-3, and sold VERY cheap around here. Pro shops, ebay, lanes were flooded with them, but they did not look good in action. Could have been the users, though, because everyone seemed to have one (except for me...). Was a medium condition piece, today I'd put it in the Fast/Furious range, maybe more arcing.

I drilled one to fit under a Virtual Energy for one of my bowlers and he loves it. To me, it looks a lot like a Tropical Storm save for maybe a touch stronger and smoother. Drill it strong for all but the slowest ball speeds, that's my advice.
