What is Storm missing?
« on: March 15, 2009, 10:54:39 PM »
In my opinion, Storm has one of the most complete product lines from top to bottom.  As a fun little poll, what do you guys want to see next, and/or what do you think is missing from the current line up?

Super Domination! It is an overseas ball with the RAD weight block, solid r2x with ETM!
Also, on the other end of the spectrum, a weaker covered ball than the Tropicals and the Street Rods would be nice, something similar to 900G Creature Pearl and Link.


Is the Super Domination really good ?

I think storm needs to release an updated Hot Rod, with a stronger coverstock but still with no core. Maybe R2S or Reactor to give the same motion as a Rayzr for drier lanes so the ball can push further down the lane in later games.

It is a new Japanese release. If you look on Storm's site, they seem to have about 6 different Dominations, using about every current cover on that weight block, including SOLID R2X with ETM, a cover that has not been used here yet. I just particularly like the RAD weight block.

A tame ball for lighter conditions would be nice, as an alternative to the higher RG Reactor Tropical Storms. An urethane cover (there are overseas balls...) with a lower RG core would be nice, or a ball with an older Cureylon coverstock with a true core, say a Street Rod with such a weaker cover.

Besides, I still dream of an Accu Tread revival - a pearl ball with the Twin-V core would be nice

A ball like the AMF Mega Friction, THAT IS HILARIOUS! "Dust" a Virtual Gravity with 1000 grit so it's as dusty as that Mega Friction and see if you feel the same way.

yeah.... the mega friction still out hooks the virtual. The virtual is a decent ball though. I had mine at 1000, and there was still no comparison.

Hmm..Lets see what I have in this bag...some magic, some hot sauce, and a saw.. how can I loose....Dynamo and Liberator on the way.....

i wish i bowled where all of you bowl becuase ive had my virtual for almost 4 months and have a total of about 15 gmaes on it.  I can't throw it anywhere it hooks too much.  I wish people would realize that hook isnt alway the answer.  Too many people dont know the difference between hook and roll out.  Whats wrong with some milder pieces that offer control and are more consistant than just a hook monster

IMO, Storm needs something to compare to a Vibe...bit weaker cover with easy length and hit.  The Street Rod balls are very good, but the pearl is a bit too aggressive in the midlane to be used on burnt up stuff, and the Tropicals hook a bit too much as well.

Personally, I think if they made T-Road pearls & HyRoads forever, I doubt most Storm fans would complain

I also agree with the idea of the remake of the ER one of my all time favorite ball and with the S2x solid cover would be awesome and I dont think buying a case would be good enough. If we are going to go on these things I would like to see the xfactor core with the r2s or r2x pearl cover would be awesome.
