Ultra Hot - ACCU-tread, or Curelyon?
« on: April 20, 2004, 10:42:50 AM »
I keep reading conflicting information on the coverstock of this ball.  Storm's website says it is Curelyon, the sheet that came with the ball says ACCU-tread.  This website has both coverstocks in the description.  Could someone that represents Storm let me know which it is?

Actually Jeff I have noticed that there are quite a few listings in Storm's new archived list that are contradicting with what are on other sites like here and from information of what I pulled personally from Storm's web site way back when the ball was first released.

I am just about 99.9% sure that I can state that the Ultra Hot has and ACCU-Tread Reactive coverstock with that Ultra-Fleck additive.

This is the very reason that I'm asking someone that represents Storm to shed some light on my inquiry.

The Too Hot is Curelyon pearl, so it makes sense that the Ultra Hot is Curelyon solid.

That's kinda what I was thinking Jeff.  Haven't seen a post from him in quite some time.

That's too easy, though I guess I'll try it.  I'm not one for doing things the easy way.  Besides, I think I learn more when I ask questions here anyhow.  If anything I learn a little more about the BR.com members.

J_Mac,

The Hot series had been strictly Curelyon until the Hot Wire.
Blue Hot, Red Hot, Hot Shot, Hot Rod, Too Hot are/were all Curelyon.

The current Storm Archive says the Ultra Hot is Curelyon:

Ultra Hot had the cover from the El Nino Gold.  Monster ball at the price.

Thanks for your question. The material used on the Ultra Hot is Curelyon. I apologize if there are any errors indicating otherwise.

Best of luck,
