The Roto Grip All Out Show Off is a hybrid from the original Show Off. The All Out Show Off is much cleaner in the front part of the lane and is much weaker overall. The original Show Off at times is a little too strong for the ball reaction I like to see with the lower end/higher RG bowling balls. That is where the All Out Show Off comes into play! Its a great progression down from the original Show Off. These gals are going to a be great 1-2 punch!

The new Roto Grip Critical might just be my Number 1 go to ball now! The Roto Grip Critical Theory made a couple years back was one of the top balls Roto Grip has ever made and now, ITS BACK!
The Roto Grip Critical is easily the most predictable asymmetrical ball i have ever thrown down a lane. The Critical has such a strong, smooth, and continuous roll that everyone loves to see in a bowling ball.
It is great for heavier/longer oil patterns because it is such a strong ball, but dont be afraid to throw it later in the day as well. The Roto Grip Critcal is a MUST HAVE in your bag so get one as soon as possible!

The Roto Grip Daredevil is exactly what they were missing in the lineup, a low rg pearl ball. The pearl cover gets the ball through the fronts, but the strong low RG core gets the ball into a strong midlane roll with continuous backend. I am a big fan of lower rg bowling balls like the Haywire and Hywire because they are smoother rolling and more predictable. At times they roll too early and I cant get a ball through the fronts. The daredevil solves that problem. The Dare Devil is a must have for fans of the Haywire, HyWire who want a similar motion, but just further down the lane.

The Roto Grip Daredevil Danger is just what I needed to compliment my original Daredevil and Daredevil Trick! The Daredevil Danger is earlier than my original Daredevil and has a bigger motion down lane than my Daredevil Trick. The Daredevil Danger fits right in the middle on the three ball family with the Daredevil Danger being the strongest of the three. The Danger is a similar motion to the Hywire but more predictable for me. The Daredevil Danger will be a bench mark ball for many.

I am very impressed with the new Roto Grip Devour. I am a big fan of all the balls in the HP2 line and the Devour fits right in with them. The Devour has such a controlled roll which everyone loves to see out of a ball. Compared to the Roto Grip Outcry, the Devour gets down lane cleaner with the similar smooth heavy roll down lane. This ball is great for all conditions, but is really effective late in the day on a more burnt up condition. When there is a bunch of friction this ball just blends it all out. A recommend the Roto Grip Devour to everyone who wants a smooth, clean, and predictable rolling ball.

The new Roto Grip Enteral Cell is yet another amazing asymmetrical ball made in the Cell line. The new Solid coverstock really keeps this ball being smooth but not burning up to quick as some asymmetrical tend to do.
Compared to the regular Roto Grip Hyper Cell the Eternal Cell is cleaner in the front part of the lane, with a much stronger motion down lane. The ball allows you to open up your angles and go around a pattern if needed.
The Eternal Cell is going to be a ball you see a lot of in the future! It goes up there at the top of my go to asymmetrical balls.

The new Roto Grip Haywire is one of the strongest balls on the market today! The main problem I had with the hyper cell was it was too strong in the fronts, and never kept a roll down lane. Even though it is an earlier rolling ball, it still continuous its strong roll down lane too. This ball is great for sport conditions and heavy oil. Best ball for its price point so you can’t go wrong with a Roto Grip Haywire.

The new Roto Grip Hectic is one smooth Pearl bowling ball. The Hectic is everything good about the Roto Grip Devour and even better! The Hectic retains so much energy to go through the pins its unreal.
Most pearl bowling balls are very sharp down lane and off of the dry, but not the Hectic. It has all the hook you want down lane, but it the good way. The Roto Grip Hectic should be your top choice for a ball at its price point!

The Hot Cell is a urethane ball I’ve been waiting for and its finally here. The Hot Cell is the strongest urethane ball Storm or Roto Grip have ever made. It has a strong solid urethane cover with a strong asymmetrical core that was used in the old Cell series bowling balls. At times, my Pitch Black would sometimes have a hard time getting corners out, but the Hot Cell is a great fix for that. It is much stronger than the Pitch Black with that smooth urethane roll still. This ball is a game changer in the urethane world!

The Roto Grip Hustle Ink is my favorite of the Hustle series. Im a big fan of solid covers and unlike the previous Hustles released the Hustle Ink is the strongest Hustle ever. The Hustle Ink is pretty clean through the front part of the lane and has a smooth strong backend. It reminds me a lot of a little bit weaker IQ Tour Solid. It definitely is weaker than the IQ Tour Solid, but it the overall reaction and versatility is very similar. The Hustle Ink is a surprising great ball for the price point. It will definitely have a spot in my bag for a long time!

The Hustle POW and Hustle RIG are the new pearl versions of the Hustle series. When compared the Hustle SAY/PRO, the POW/RIG are much cleaner and backend quite a bit more. They are super clean in the fronts and really go sideways off the dry! If you loved your Hustle SAY/PRO but wanted something just a little cleaner with more recovery, look no further than the Hustle POW/RIG!

The Roto Grip Hustle PRO is bringing a new weapon to Roto Grips HP1 Line. The Hustle is a step up from the previous HP1 ball the Locos and hooks like no other low end ball on the market. The Hustle PRO gets into a great mid lane roll and continuous through the pins. Sometimes the lower end balls never seem to want to read the pattern but the Hustles have no problem with that! The Hustle PRO is a great ball for its price range.

The Roto Grip Hywire is definitely one of my "Go To" bowling balls in my bag! This ball really is something special with that one part solid,
two parts pearl 62M Coverstock. The Hywire is very clean in the front part of the lane for a 2.50 RG ball while still reving up in the mid lane
and having a ton of backend motion downlane. This ball hooks in all the right ways! The Hywire compliments the Haywire very well as its cleaner
in the fronts but still the same amount of hook potential overall. When my Haywire is just a little too early rolling, the Hywire comes right into
play!

The new Roto Grip Menace is easily the cleanest and smoothest asymmetrical ball I have ever thrown! Even though it’s an asymmetrical ball, it rolls nothing like one! Compared to the Roto Grip Sinister, which has a much truer asymmetrical roll, the Menace gets down lane much cleaner. The Sinister is by far earlier and stronger off the spot down lane. I was somewhat iffy about the 2.52 RG as I haven’t had much success with mid RG balls like this but the Menace is definitely a perfect fit in anyone’s arsenal. You won’t be disappointed with the Roto Grip Menace!

The Roto Grip No Rules is a hooking machine. The new HP4 ball replaced the Roto Grip Hyper Cell but in my opinion the No Rules is much cleaner in the front part of the lane than the Hyper Cell. The No Rules is going to be a very versatile asymmetrical ball which is hard to come by these days. The No Rules hooks on oil and blends on friction. This is a great ball to add to the arsenal.

The No Rules Exist fits right in with the Dare Devil Trick and the No Rules Pearl. The No Rules Exist has the same cover as the Dare Devil Trick, so it’s weaker than the original No Rules. The No Rules Exist has the same cover as the No Rules Pearl, but it stronger because the Exist is a solid cover and the Pearl is obviously a Pearl. For me, the No Rules Exist is a touch cleaner in the fronts and is more on the back than the Dare Devil Trick, and the Exist is earlier than the Pearl and doesn’t back quite as much.

The Roto Grip No Rules Pearl is one versatile bowling ball! Compared to the original No Rules, the pearl is much cleaner in the front part of the lane. That allows you to throw it on much more conditions. The No Rules Pearl has a great amount of downlane motion which is also very controllable. The Roto Grip No Rules Pearl is a benchmark ball to start any event with!

The Roto Grip Show Off is unlike any other bowling ball we have seen. The Show Off has same cover as the original No Rules and the new Hotshot core. The Show off is unlike anything else because of the core/cover combo. The Show Off is very strong, but is still clean enough to produce a smooth strong continuous backend. It’s hard to describe honestly. It’s for oil, but it backends a bunch and you can use it later in the day too. The Show Off is a very unique ball that has a place in everyone’s arsenal.

The Root Grip Wreck-it and the Wreck-Em are amazing lower end bowling balls. Compared to the Wreck-it, the Wreck-em goes longer and snaps a bunch more. The Wreck-it rolls pretty early and is extremely smooth on the back. When the lanes get really burned up, The Wreck-Em is the perfect progression from the Wreck-it because it creates a much stronger backend motion. I can see starting with a Wreck-it and then going to Wreck-Em for the rest of the block when I need something to get the corners out late. This is a must have in your bag!

The Roto Grip Wreck-It is everything you could want in a hybrid Wrecker. At times the Wrecker was just too snappy off the spot down lane, but not with the Wreck-It! The Wreck-It has just about the same amount of hook overall as the Wrecker but is much earlier and smoother. It really blends out the friction and continuous like crazy down lane! Bowlers will be able to throw the Wreck-It on a numerous amount of conditions since it clears the front part of the lane so well while always getting into a strong yet smooth roll. You can throw it on heavy oil or late in the day when the lanes start to hook. You cant go wrong with the Roto Grip Wreck-It in your bag!

The Storm Alpha Crux is yet another great piece in the ever popular Crux lineup! Like the Original Crux, the new Alpha is very
early and strong. The Alpha is much smoother than any other Crux in the lineup. The Alpha Crux is great for longer-heavier oil patterns
because of how strong the ball is. I throw it more often on more blended oil patterns. I recommend it to anyone who likes strong
early rolling balls or to those who bowl on a lot of sport patterns.

The Storm Code Black is easily one of my favorite asymmetrical bowling balls I have ever thrown because it is not your typical rolling asymmetrical. This ball is very clean in the front part of the lane, revs up in the mids really well, and has a ton of backend reaction downlane. With your typical asymmetrical reaction, you see a “hook stop” reaction. The Code Black is not the case. This ball continues through the pins very well!

The Storm Fight is unlike any bowling ball we have ever seen before! With that brand new core it gives you a shape that
no ball can mimic. The Fight is very clean in the front part of the lane and picks up a very heavy and continuous roll down lane.
Because the Fight hooks so much it can be used early on the "fresh" or very late in the day on the "burn". I recommend the Storm Fight
to anyone who likes long/smooth/continuous bowling balls.

The Storm Hyroad Nano is a ball motion that I have loved in the past and this one tops them all. The Storm Hyroad Solid would be a little too early at times and just couldn’t get around the corner downline. The Hyroad Nano has no problem with that! The original Hyroad and Hyroad Pearl are easily the cleanest balls storm makes and the Hyroad Nano fits right in the gap they were missing. Its still clean in the fronts but earlier than the other Hyroads and much smoother. This ball is going to be around for a long time!

The Intense is a great progression from the Code Red and Code Black. The Code series balls are must have bowling balls, but sometimes aren’t quite strong enough for heavier oil conditions. The Storm Intense fits right in to solve that problem. It rolls earlier and has a strong midlane roll than the Codes. It has a continuous backend, but isn’t too sharp downlane. The Intense looks a lot like the No Rules Pearl, and it comparison has a similar motion. The Intense is just enough stronger than the No Rules Pearl. Compared to the Storm Snap Lock the Intense is a touch cleaner through the front and a little slower on the backend.

The new Storm IQ Tour 30 is everything you loved about the IQ Pearl and then some! Compared to the IQ Pearl the new IQ 30 is stronger/sharper down lane.
With that pearl coverstock this ball retains all the engery you need downlane, but still getting into a roll at the same time. This balls versatility is going to be unmatched on the market.
The low RG this ball has will allow you to throw it on the Fresh, but with that coverstock you can also throw it on the burn/late in the day. The new Storm IQ Tour 30 is a MUST HAVE in your bags for both league and tournament play. 5 out of 5 ratings!

The new Storm Joy Ride is exactly what you would expect from a pearl Ride. It is so clean through the front part and still retains energy down lane to keep a roll. Being a weaker bowling ball it allows you to play much straighter than you could with most other bowling balls but you can also slow up some and hook it. The Joy Ride will actually get into a roll which will allow you to hook it some late in the day in a tournament. The Joy Ride compliments the Ride extremely well. They make for a great 1-2 punch in your arsenal.

The Storm Match Solid is one of the most versatile bowling balls on the market today! The Match hooks in oil and tames down any friction on the lanes. The Match is very clean through the front part of the lane with a smooth, strong, and continuous roll down lane. The new Stinger Core with the Reactor Solid Reactive coverstock reminds me a lot of the Tropical Heats but on steroids and more up to date to the game today! This piece by Storm is a homerun for a “Lower End” bowling ball! It really is a Match for any condition!

The Match Up Hybrid fits into the perfect progression between the Match Up Solid/Pearl. It’s rolls earlier than the pearl and hooks more downlane than the Solid. Weaker cover bowling balls come in play a lot for longer tournaments late in the day and these balls are unreal. The Match Up Hybrid is a versatile bowling ball for all styles in bowling. Cant go without it!

The Storm “Optimus Solid” is one, if not, the strongest ball I have in my bag. The original “Optimus” was amazing, but my only issue with it was it was very snappy off the friction. I needed something very similar, yet earlier and smoother. Well the “Optimus Solid” is exactly that! It has a very strong early roll, with a smooth down lane reaction. Great for playing straight on long patterns or even late in the day where there is a lot of friction. If you like very strong, early, and smooth bowling balls, you can’t go wrong with the Storm “Optimus Solid”.

The Storm Phaze might just be one of my favorite bowling balls in the bag now! The Shape that the Storm Phaze gives me really
isnt like anything else ive ever had. It is clean in the fronts while still getting into a roll, its not super jumpy off of the dry
and it allows me to play a lot straighter than i can with any other ball. When the lanes get dry and tricky this ball is perfect
since it doesnt over hook off the dry. Great ball to have in your bag!

The Phaze II is a piece like no other out! It is nothing like the original Phaze. The Phaze II gets into a strong early roll and backends a ton downlane. On a light oil pattern I have to move way right to hold the pocket. The Phaze II reminds me a lot of the Marvel S, except the Phaze II is stronger with more backend. If you’re looking for a strong symmetrical for heavy oil, the Phaze II is the ball! Don’t miss out on the new Phaze!

The Storm Pitch Blue is absolutely amazing for a urethane ball! Anybody that knows me knows im not a fan of urethane, but the new Pitch Blue
is something special. It is much cleaner in the front part of the lane from the Pitch Black with a little more backend down lane. Being a high
rev bowler the Pitch Black hooked so early it would force me too deep and i would get in trouble but not the Pitch Blue! It allows me to play much
straighter with a true urethane roll! This is a fantastic ball!

The Storm “Ride” is the best of both worlds with the smooth roll of a lower end ball and the power of a higher end ball. What I love most about this ball is it gets into an earlier roll than the Breezes and Lights Out which really blends out friction. The Ride is easily the most versatile “Low End” ball I have ever had in my bag. I can throw it on the fresh, transition, and burn late in the day. No matter how deep I get with it, the ball stills keeps its smooth roll. My Storm “Ride” is drilled pin up in between my fingers with the cg stacked directly under my fingers. This way is retains some energy and allows me to play many angles. I rate it a 10 out of 10!

The Storm Rocket Ship is by far my favorite ball between the three bowling balls in the “Rocket” line. The original Rocket was very strong off the spot and the Sky Rocket was too weak at times. The Rocket Ship is the perfect blend of smooth and continuous. The Rocket Ship gets into a nice heavy midlane roll and just keeps on going through the pins. It’s a very versatile ball for any conditions from light/dry patterns to heavier volume patterns. This is a great piece to have in the bag and a go to ball for many.

The Storm “Sky Rocket” is a very similar shape to the very popular Storm “HyRoad” but earlier and smoother. This ball gets down lane so clean and just has a smooth strong roll down lane. It is such a versatile ball to have in your bag. It can be used for the fresh and for the burn late in the day. Compared to the original “Rocket” is has a much smoother yet stronger reaction off of the friction, which gives you a controlled roll down lane.

The ball is a great compliment to the "Rocket" and "Hyroad" Series. You are missing out if you haven't drilled up a "Sky Rocket"!

The Storm Snaplock is everything you could want from a pearl Lock. Compared to the original Lock, the Snaplock is much cleaner in the front part of the lane with a very similar shape down lane as the Lock. The original Lock is stronger/earlier in the front part of the lane. At times the original Lock is just too much ball in the front part of the lane but that’s when the Snaplock comes into play. With the Snaplock being a pearl, it makes the ball much more versatile for an asymmetrical while still giving you that asymmetrical roll people love to see!

The Street Fight is the latest ball in the Fight series. It’s a overall a little weaker than the original Fight, which makes it perfect ball down from it. The original Fight, in my opinion, had too strong of a cover. The Street Fight is not the case and solves that problem. It clears the fronts, backends a bunch and has strong continuation. It’s the perfect ball for those that might not have a lot of ball speed or for those who need a ball that will backend and keep going.
