About the Bowler

The 900 Global Boost Hybrid. I was really impressed with this ball for it being an entry performance product. The S43 Hybrid Cover and Launch core allows me to play right on drier lane conditions and allows me to open up the lane when the lane becomes fried. For anyone who needs a ball for dry lane conditions, this is the ball for you. Get yourself a 900 Global Boost Hybrid today.

DREAM ON! DREAM ON! DREAM ON, as Steven Tyler would sing. The 900 Global Dream On is INCREDIBLE. This ball has the 74 Response Hybrid Reactive Cover and Identity Asymmetric core. The Dream On is clean through the middle part of the lane and very angular on the backend. This is a ball I'll have for a long while. Get your 900 Global Dream On today.

About the Bowler

Words can't describe the 900 Global Respect, insanely good is how I describe it. This ball is wrapped with the 79 Alert Hybrid Reactive and has the Tetra Symmetric Core, which provides a skid flip motion and excellent continuation on the backend. For me, I find myself using this ball on medium-medium heavy lane conditions and and is a ball that never leaves my bag at any time because of its versatility. If you don't have a 900 Global Respect, your missing out.

About the Bowler

The Bad Intentions Hybrid is the second Bad Intentions in Hammer's High Performance line and successor to the original Bad Intentions. The NEW Bad Intentions Hybrid features the same core as the original, but with a brand new coverstock, the Juiced Extreme Hybrid. Engineered for medium-heavy oil, this ball is really smooth through the middle part of the lane and offers a strong backend. I intend on bringing bad intentions to my league and tournament opponents, will you? Make sure to get yourself one of these great looking orange black and purple Bad Intentions Hybrid today.

Pyramid Blueprint Pearl Project 1.618 RETIRED LTD OFFER

Reviewed by Nick Pollak on 4/23/2016

About the Bowler

The Blueprint Pearl...CRAZY GOOD! The Blueprint I went with on this ball was the Triangle drilling, where I get six different layouts on one ball. The pin down layout is the most aggressive and earliest rolling of the six layouts, and the pin up is very long and strong rolling. The 8-9 layout gives me a longer and sharper reaction of the six layouts, and the 10-11 has to be my favorite layout, it is so smooth and the continuation on the backend and through the pin deck is insane. 1-2 layout rolls very well and the 3-4 layout allows me to play the lanes straighter. So for my next league night, I have my Blueprint set. Do you? Get your Blueprint Pearl today.

About the Bowler

The Chosen One. WOW WOW WOW! Probably the most versatile asymmetrical ball I've ever thrown. I went with the Triangle drilling on this ball, where I get six different layouts on one ball. The pin up and pin down layouts are the most aggressive of the six, where they read up earlier and the continuation on the backend is awesome. The 8-9 and 10-11 layouts are the smoothest of the six, smooth through the mid lane and continuous off the backend. The 1-2 layout allows me to control the wet/dry on a house/sport pattern well, and the 3-4 layout is the weakest layout of the six, but allows me to play straighter on the lane which works well when I bowl on a short pattern. Are you the Chosen One? Find out by getting one today.

Pyramid Path Rising Blue/Dark Blue Pearl

2 of 3 people found this review helpful

Reviewed by Nick Pollak on 4/24/2016

About the Bowler

The Pyramid Path Rising...WOW! I think I'm on the path rising towards strikes with this ball. I went with the Triangle drilling on this ball, which gives me six different layouts on one ball. The pin up layout gave me the longest and hardest backend of the six layouts. The pin down was the weakest layout of the six, and the 8-9 layout allowed me to have my angles very direct at the pocket, as well as the 1-2 layout. The 10-11 layout has to be my favorite of the six, to where I'm able to play right, swing the ball right and have excellent continuation on the backend and through the pin deck that has my jaw dropping, and the 3-4 layout went the longest and was the most smoothest reaction of the six. Six drillings on one ball, all that are beneficial on medium-dry patterns, I'm definitely on the Path Rising to the top at my next tournament. If the Blue/Dark Blue color isn't for you, don't worry, you can get the same ball motions with the Black/Silver, Purple/Steel Blue, Black/Hot Pink, and Orange/Lime Green, whichever color you choose, I can guarantee you'll be on the Path Rising to success. Make sure to get one today.

My first thoughts of the Pathogen were WOW, that ball is very lime green. When I threw this ball, I was amazed at how great it rolls. I went with the Triangle drilling on this ball, where I receive six different layouts on this ball. The pin up and pin down layouts were the most aggressive layouts, my favorite layouts were the 8-9 and 10-11 layouts, they were smooth through the mid lane, and the continuation on the backend and through the pin deck is UNREAL. This is a controllable ball with a great benchmark reaction that is for sure going to be the first ball out of my bag in league night. Get yours today. I HIGHLY recommend it.

About the Bowler

The Cell series has been known as one of the greatest series ever in the Roto Grip lineup. And the Eternal Cell continued on the Cell Series legacy. For me, this ball is great with it's 75M Solid Reactive Coverstock read great in the middle part of the lane and with it's 1500 Grit Polished the Eternal Cell smoothed out on the backend and gave great continuation through the pin deck. You can use this ball mostly on medium- medium heavy lane conditions. Go get your Eternal Cell today and see why the Cell Series is one of Roto Grip's most legendary series EVER.

About the Bowler

The Storm Alpha Crux. All I can say is WOW! I didn't know what to expect from this new powerful beast at first, but once I got this ball in my hands I was amazed. Engineered for heavy oil, the Alpha Crux reads the middle part of the lane and has a vicious move on the backend with it's 2000 Grit Abralon and it's NEW GI-16 Solid Reactive Cover. So if you are a low rev player and looking through to keep your angles straighter on league night, this ball is for you. If you are a high rev player and wanna open up the lane right away at league night, this ball is for you. So get yourself an Alpha Crux today. Dominate the lanes your next league night with a NEW Alpha Crux.

About the Bowler

Are you ready to Fight?

The new Fight from Storm Bowling features the R4S Solid Reactive Coverstock and the Iron Cross Core. First thing that came to mind when I saw this ball was wow the weight block is HUGE. It's insane. But the ball motion that the core gives is a ball motion that we haven't seen from Storm in awhile. It's different from anything they have in their lineup right now. This ball is really clean through the front part of the lane, smooth through the mid lane, and has amazing continuation on the back end and through the pin deck. Storm has another winner. Join the Fight by ordering one today.

The Storm HyRoad. WOW! There's a reason why Storm has had this ball in their Thunder Line for 7 Years because WOW. It is just THAT GOOD! This ball offers great length and great continuation on the backend. I've had so much success with this ball over the past few years and won my first King of the Hill event with this ball on Scorpion last summer. This ball works on medium-heavy oil lane conditions and is a very versatile piece. If you don't have one of these HyRoad's, well, you're missing out. Get one today!

About the Bowler

As soon as I heard of the 30th Anniversary ball, I was psyched. To find out the 30th Anniversary ball was going to be of the IQ Tour Pearl, my jaw dropped. I found that the new IQ Tour 30 offered great length, great angularity and excellent continuation on the backend and through the pin deck. If you loved the original pearl, you'll love the 30. This ball greatly complements the IQ Tour when you need to go to a ball to go longer for you and finish a lot harder, this IQ Tour 30 is the ball to choose. Make sure to get yourself one today.

About the Bowler

When I heard about the Phaze, I was excited to get this ball in my hands. The Master line has always been one of my favorites from Storm, and the Phaze is another winner. With the brand new AX-16 Pearl Reactive Coverstock and new velocity core, you will see the ball be very clean through the front part, gave great mid lane read and excellent continuation on the backend and through the pin deck. This ball is meant for medium-heavy oil and is very versatile and will complement any and all styles. I highly recommend drilling one today.

Storm Pitch Blue

Reviewed by Nick Pollak on 3/6/2016

About the Bowler

The Pitch Blue, so many words to describe this ball. INCREDIBLE, is one that comes to mind. I expected this ball to go longer than the Pitch Black because of the Controll Plus Pearl Coverstock but still have the same down lane reaction, and that's exactly what I got from it. For me, urethane is my best friend when I'm on short patterns since I am a two handed bowler, and I can even get away with this ball on medium patterns as well. So if your a huge fan of urethane, or just need a ball that you can use on medium-dry lane conditions, then the Pitch Blue is the ball for you. Storm has and always will be the Bowlers Company, and add this ball to your arsenal today.
