Virtual Gravity Nano
« on: January 17, 2011, 07:43:44 AM »
 
- Coverstock: NRG - Nano Reactive Genesis 
- Weight Block: Shape-Lock HD (High Density) (14-16 pounds) 
- Ball Color: Orange/ Navy/ Cobalt All colors do vary somewhat from the picture shown. 
- Ball Finish: 4000-grit Abralon 
- RG Differential: 16#-.048, 15#-.052, 14#-.050 
- RG Average: 16#-2.48, 15#-2.48, 14#-2.53 
- Flare Potential: 6" Plus (High) 
- Recommended Lane Conditions: Heavy Oil 
- A few tiny pit holes in the cover stock of the ball are normal 
- Description: Storm is known for producing the best high performance balls on the market. When the Virtual Gravity was released in 2008, it not only turned heads but gave bowlers of all skill levels an unprecedented amount of hook on even the oiliest lanes imaginable. The new Virtual Gravity Nano is intended to create a similar yet stronger ball motion built specifically for heavy oil. This can be accomplished with either a stronger coverstock (texture) or more aggressive weight block (lower radius of gyration or increased differential). As the original Virtual Gravity quickly became Storm‟s all-time best seller, the new Nano is sure to follow in its footsteps...and yes, those are big shoes to fill! Looking at the original Virtual Gravity, the Shape-Lock HD weight block/core system produced a fast-revving action that especially helped bowlers looking for a stronger change of direction usually privy to only those with big rev rates! The Shape-Lock HD motor will continue to power the Nano as well. A breakthrough in coverstock technology rarely happens due to the complex nature of chemistry and polymer science. But Storm's research and development team is committed to maintaining the "pole position" in bowling innovation, so it's no surprise that we are changing the game yet again with the new NRG cover. With Nanotechnology, NRG will give bowlers increased oil traction due to the micro-dynamic enhancements of the surface. Just looking at the surface of the new NRG material shows you the increased surface texture between the peaks and valleys, as well as the more aggressive edges on the top of the peaks! We're continuing to push the envelope; we just hope you are ready for it.

The reason it's $160.00 is on Feb 1st Storm is raising the prices on all internet shops just like Ebonite did a few months ago.

From what I've heard, no particle in the NANO ... and it is awesome. Looks like I'm gonna have to find a way to get my ball speed past "geezer" :D

All I care about, is I hope above all other hopes there's a pearl version of this ball.  I LOVE the Gravity Shift like a brother, and if they release a newer version of that ball I am going to buy multiple cases of that ball.
