The Virtual Energy™ from Storm® Products, Inc. was named the 2009 Ball of the Year by Bowlers Journal International magazine. This is the third consecutive year that Storm or Roto Grip® has received the Ball of the Year honors. In 2008 the Roto Grip Cell™ took home the top prize and in 2007 the Storm T-Road Solid™ was the winner.
In the January 2010 staff writer Joe Cerar announced the results of a national survey sent to over 200 pro shops. They were asked to rate the 2009 releases from all bowling ball manufactures.
