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?

I would love to see something WEAKER along the lines of a BIG HIT Pearl, BLUE HOT Flame, or RED HOT Flame for drier conditions!

Basically something that goes LONGER (and with slightly LESS Backend) than Roto Grip's NEPTUNE... and still has the ability to hit & carry.

ROTO GRIP actually already has such a ball in the EARTH. But the EARTH is an overseas ball and I haven't ever been able to find one here in the U.S. The EARTH, from what I have heard, is the Big Hit's CORE with the Neptune's COVER. Which would seem like a perfect step down from the Neptune, since it has the same COVER with just a weaker CORE.

So basically it would be a weaker type of ball like this that I would like to see either from STORM or ROTO GRIP. I know that I would buy a Case or 2 of them!

Two more T-Roads...

One particle the other pearl urethane.
With those two added you could have a arsenal of T-Roads that could handle just about any lane condition.

I would like to see something like the neptune in storms line up, something like a replacement for the thunder flash would be awesome for thoes really tricky patterns. Having a ball again like the tour power would be awesome so everyone can have a great bench mark ball.

ALso I would like to see a replacement for the xfactor. THere is the super domination that they have overseas.

Something to compete with AMF's Mega Friction...a splinter-throwing hook monster with little concern for length.

A Particle Pearl, like the X Factor Ace. Or something for lighter oil, like plastic with a core, and a new clear Plastic ball with the lightning bolt inside.

Pearl/Particle R2X on Shape Lock HD.  Or in the fire line.  I love the Shift.

all they need to do is bring back a couple of balls

Tour Power- enough said

Thunder Flash- todays conditions hook to much with all these hook monets make something controlable and that hits

Meteor Flash-  Low flare and hit

I agree. I was also going to suggest a pure urethane, but the above post beat me to it. Also a particle T-Road would be sweet.

In addition, I'd like to see the El Nino line return.

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.

How about the original Black Thunder?  I would like that.  It might bring me back to try a storm ball again.
