What do you miss most?
« on: February 20, 2015, 02:04:44 PM »
I really miss Monsoon, one of my favorite covers of all time, and it didn't get put on much.  Super Charge one of my all time favorites, and yes, I even liked the Fear Factor.

If Storm kept that cover, they'd be the Ebonite of bowling right now, irrelevant. Monsoon literally had a lane life of 25 games.

I remember the Fear Factor not being popular and had a reputation for rapid degradation, but the Super Charge was a really good ball that lasted forever.  Maybe the cover got tweaked by the time the Fear Factor was released?

As cool as the Brunswick legends as been, I think it would be cool if Storm issued a retro offering from time to time.  X Factor or X-IT would be cool.

Haha I realize that . . but I really loved the Super Charge.  The Depth Charge I loved too, but it had Pro-Thane on it.  I loved the Fear Factor after it died lol.

I miss the days when I could just about get the high diff Storm balls to flare back to the holes.  Father time is cruel.

They need to bring the rad back.  Forget this other mumbo jumbo they keep throwing together... The code line would sell well here! Code red, black, green etc.  Rad4 looks sweet!

I miss the ace! And triple x factor!

Someone was getting the thumb plugged on a Domination in our shop the other day. If it wasn't a 14, I probably would have offered to buy it off the guy.
RAD with R2S and it would sell a lot.

I was always interested in the Secret Agent and original Agent too

I could do that with my Super Charge, I could get it to flare all the way around and start rolling over my thumb just before it hit the pins. 

I miss the days when I could just about get the high diff Storm balls to flare back to the holes.  Father time is cruel.
