Storm Furious Bowling Balls

Furious Specs
Our Hot Line Performance Series has always been and always will be the most hook for the money in the industry. We had great success with our Street Rod Series of bowling balls and the Turbine weight block. With today's changing oils and conditioners, we felt it was time to upgrade the tire that touches the lane
The Fast and the Furious will feature the R2S coverstock. This second generation of Reactor coverstock has amplified the hook potential of the original: so in translation, we have continued our tradition of value & performance.
Now is the time to step on that pedal to the RIGHT!
The Perfect Scale™: Helping Bowlers Make Better Decisions. Because each manufacturer uses a different method for indicating a ball's hook potential, bowlingball.com developed a way for the consumer to compare bowling balls across all manufacturers.

The SRS has the pin half in and half above my ring finger. The cg is kicked to strong position (halfway between ball track and VAL). The Furious shares the same drill angle, only with the pin below my ring, and a shorter pin to cg (2" pin out compared to a 3.5" pin). Both have the box finish of 2000 abralon, and both have a 3/4 balance hole on val (SRS on PAP, Furious 1" below PAP). Using my favorite release, I was able to get the SRS to the pocket playing 15 to 5 on a fresh house shot. The reaction was very close to my Fast (please see review of the fast compared to the Street Rod Pearl) even with the strong surface prep and drilling. The over all roll was about the same I only needed to move in one board. When rolling the Furious off this line, it hooked early and quit, yielding a seven ten split. Once I used the Furious for a few more frames, and got some oil on the cover, the Furious started to wake up and over hook. Obviously not the right ball to use on this line. After moving in 2 and 1, the Furious started to roll even better. It now had more oil up front, to get it to the breakpoint, and was coming off the spot very aggressively. The SRS would not read the fronts as well, and would dart and dive on me.
I then changed my release to increase the spin through the fronts, and moved another 2 and 1 right. The SRS would skid flip back to the pocket, with inconsistent carry. The Furious just rolled great with 10 back on every shot. now that I was in the most oil in the heads, the Furious was at home. It had a very hard "kick" at the breakpoint, with a great command of the front part of the lane. This is an unbelievable amount of hook at this price point. The Furious will handle more oil than the SRS, and will get through carrydown much easier.
The last thing I would like to mention about both the Fast and the Furious, is that they do not over or under read the fronts the way the reactor cover did on the Street Rods. The Street Rods where great for less thick oil , as well as less volumes of oil, but the Fast and the Furious will have more pattern coverage, and allow you to play in the same zone longer, because they are more predictable through the front part of the lane.

FURIOUS: First let me say, I am big fan of the Grape fragrance. I wish I could just stock pile Furious and Rapid Fire balls in my office area at home so I could have that scent around there. Jokingly saying, the Furious has three features of two of my favorite bowling balls. A similar color scheme to that of the Special Agent, the same fragrance as the Rapid Fire, and the R2S Solid Reactive cover. This ball has to be good right?!?!? Darn Right it is!
LAYOUT: I used a 4 ¼ inch pin to PAP x 3 3/4 inch CG to PAP with no hole. I left the surface as is at 2000 abralon. Very close to the layout on my Special Agent.
REVIEW: Like I described the fresh shot of Colonial Lanes above, there’s a lot of friction up front. So I wanted to test the teeth on the FURIOUS. What I saw was very surprising. The ball cleared the front of the lane very clean. Much cleaner than my Rapid Fire or Special Agent when comparing the same cover stocks. The motion in the middle and back end was very even for me. Where my Special Agent has been wanting to give up on me and hit flat, the Furious charged hard for me through the pin deck. I really had to hit up on the ball to get over reaction out of it, which meant I had to go way outside of how I normally release the ball. So I don’t have to worry about that LOL..

Layout 1

- Locate the mass bias by drawing a line from the pin through the CG. Find the location 6-¾" from the pin along this line, and mark it with "MB". This is the location of the mass bias or the secondary pin.
- Place the major pin 5" from the player's PAP and place the "MB" on the player's ball track next to the thumb hole
- Use this layout for length with a medium backend reaction.
- This layout is great for medium to light oil. Also works well for players with higher rev rates.
Layout 2

- Locate the mass bias and mark it with "MB"
- Place the major pin 4-¼" from the player's PAP and locate the mass bias (MB) along the player's PAL
- This layout will most often require an extra hole, so place this hole on the PAP and remove excess side weight to "0".
- This layout works well to produce medium length and heavy midlane roll. Usually works well on medium to heavy oil, especially longer oil patterns.
Layout 3

- Locate the mass bias and mark the spot with an "MB". Remember, the mass bias is a fine tuning device used by advanced players.
- Place the major pin 3-3/8" from the PAP and locate the mass bias halfway between the player's ball track and PAL
- Place the extra hole, if necessary, on the player's PAP, removing excess side weight to less than 1 oz.
Note: This is a "High Flare" layout that should only be used by low rev players seeking maximum ball reaction!
Layout 4

- Place the major pin 1-½" from the PAP. Remember to keep the pin along the line located between the PAP and the player's finger holes.
- Place the mass bias in the player's ball track.
- Check side weight to see if an extra hole is necessary. If so, place the hole on the PAP.
- This layout will produce heavy roll with a controllable backend reaction. Players with extensive side roll or high rev players will love this layout to help control dry, short oil patterns with very dry backends
