New From 900 Global - The Vengeance™

900 Global Vengeance™

800 Series

MY Information Date: 1/9 (That's today in case you're not keeping track.)

MY Street Date: 1/30

 

MY Coverstock: RB 91™ Solid Reactive
MY Core: Blast™ A.I. Core

Yes, it’s new. Yes, it’s strong.
This core and cover pairing exists for one reason: heavy oil that thinks it’s in charge. 

Spoiler Alert: It’s not. 

 

The single-density shape gives you a clear, confident midlane read, then saves energy for the back end...because overreacting isn’t the move.

Next Ball Up from Storm the New NeXt Factor™

 

The NeXt Factor™ brings one of Storm’s most iconic ball lines into the modern era. First introduced in 2002, the X-Factor quickly became synonymous with explosive backend motion and the unmistakable skid-flip reaction that defined an entire generation of Storm performance. Now, more than twenty years later, the Storm  Innovation Team—led by CTO Hank Boomershine—has reimagined that legacy for today’s game.

This new iteration blends Storm’s high-tech heritage with the advancements 

bowlers expect from their strongest modern releases. Clean through the front, dynamic at the breakpoint, and relentless through the pins, the Next Factor™ is 

built for when you’re ready to open up your angles and let your ball do the 

talking. It’s a revival with purpose—honoring the past while pushing performance into the future.

Storm to Introduce The Phaze II Pearl™

 

Phaze II Pearl™ Master Line INFORMATION DATE: 11/14 STREET DATE: 11/28   Key Features: The Phaze II Pearl is a pearl symmetric option that is designed for medium to heavy oil conditions. The ball is finished with Power Edge.  Core: Velocity™ Core Coverstock: TX-25™ Pearl Reactive - Through extensive testing, it was obvious the pearl cover needed to be upgraded to maximize performance. The exact same colors in the Phaze II have been used in the Phaze II Pearl. The only difference is they are in a pearl form. The Phaze II Pearl broadens the spectrum of performance within the Master line by bridging the gap between the original Phaze II Solid and IQ Tour series.

900 Global VIKING™ Hybrid

 

The new Global Viking, featuring the Strobe AI core, is the most responsive hybrid asymmetric design in the Global line. Cleaner than the original Origin and stronger on the backend, it’s the ideal go-to ball when lanes transition and you need more shape off the spot. 

GLOBAL VIKING™

INFORMATION DATE: 10/31

STREET DATE: 11/21

 Key Features:

• The Viking is a hybrid coverstock that designed for medium-heavy conditions.
• Core: Strobe™ A.I. Core
• Coverstock: RB 90™ Hybrid Reactive
• Finish: Power Edge
• With a raised RG, the Strobe A.I. Core's single density weight block uniquely reads the midlane while still providing a very strong backend shape.
• RB 90 Hybrid was designed specifically to bring a balanced reaction. The solid component of the cover will give you the proper amount of traction while the pearl aspects will optimize responsiveness. 

Storm Bowling Introduces the Rockstar™ Amped

 

From Storm: "This isn't just a ball; it's a mosh pit of power, precision, and pure rock and roll rebellion, engineered to make every shot a chart-topping performance. 

 

This new release features the NEW – NanoStar™ Pearl Reactive cover that contains a medium load of nanoparticles blended throughout. Meaning, while it clears the fronts with ease, it provides a little more traction in the midlane than our nano-free pearl covers, but it is not as grippy in oil as our fully loaded nano pearl covers. Clean and responsive, but not sideways off of friction down lane."

ROCKSTAR AMPED

INFORMATION DATE: 10/3

STREET DATE: 10/24

 

Key Features:

• The RockStar Amped is a pearl symmetric option that designed for medium to medium/heavy oil conditions.
• The ball is finished with Power Edge™. 
• Core: Rocker™ + A.I. Core
• Coverstock: NanoStar™ - The revolutionary new NanoStar Pearl coverstock steals the show again thanks to the medium load of nanoparticles blended throughout.
• The Rocker Core provides the raw, untamed power, generating a high revving, aggressive motion that pushes through the pins.

Plays Well When:

• When stronger asymmetrical balls are just too strong in the midlane causing them to not go through the pins the right way, and you need something that still picks up in the midlane but continues and has some response to friction.
• When weaker balls are not strong enough and you need a ball that picks up and continues without being overly aggressive.
• Can be used to blend fresh overacting house our tournament conditions, as well as blend out over-under conditions just like its solid predecessor the original ROCKSTAR™.
