We have had an amazing growth during the 1st quarter of 2008 due to our most recent ball release. Hank Boomershine, VP of Sales for Storm Products, Inc. and head of Product Development designed an amazing product, the CELL. It was time to team up with a top name player to represent Roto Grip and Wes is it!"
Malott has been a member of the PBA since 2001 and has nearly $500,000 in career earnings. He has won 9 regional PBA titles and collected over $70,000 in regional winnings. Malott is known as the "The Big Nasty" because he stands 6'5" and has a "Nasty" high rev rate when he throws the bowling ball.

"I'm extremely honored to be asked to represent the fastest growing brand in the bowling industry," said 3-time PBA National Champion Wes Malott. "Roto Grip's release of the CELL really took the spotlight on tour last season for bowling equipment. Now that I'm on board with Roto Grip I'm looking forward to seeing the equipment that will be released in the future to compliment the CELL. I'm excited to begin a long term relationship with Roto Grip that will excel both myself and the company to the top of our competition" Malott added.
