Storm Adds to The Marvel series with The Marvel - S and to the Road series with the Hy-Road Pearl

The new Storm Marvel-S has several powerful features. When considering a ball for heavier oil, you need to consider the new Marvel-S. Nanotechnology has proven itself in the Storm  Premier™ Line as the very best coverstock material when it comes to creating friction in oil. Science has proven that the texture of the NRG™ coverstock has higher surface roughness due to its expanded peaks and deep valleys. If you want an aggressive shell, this is it.

Prepped with a textured 3000-grit finishing pad, the Marvel-S’ Aqua/Green/Black NRG coverstock handles heavy oil like a beast, yet allows you the versatility to adjust the finish as you see fit. For the slickest conditions, grab a 500-grit pad or 1000-grit pad and you’ll be amazed with the performance. But maybe the laydown area in your center is a less than smooth. Just a few dabs of Xtra-Shine™ and you’ll be able to skid the Marvel-S through the heads, but you will still see ample midlane and backend reaction as well. Fragrance: Spearmint

The new Hy-Road Pearl is wrapped in the R2S™ pearl reactive, helping the new Hy-Road shell to float easily through the front, maintaining ball speed as much as possible, waiting to really cut loose on the backends.

The popular Hy-Road shares it's Inverted Fe²™ Technology weight block with the new Hy-Road Pearl. Pairing the R2S Pearl reactive coverstock with the dynamic Fe² weight block ensures that your favorite layouts in your previous Road series balls will be just as effective in the new Hy-Road Pearl.

Don’t forget that the thicker shell of the Hy-Road series makes a difference, too. The amount of energy transferred to the pins at impact is greater, translating to unmatched power at the pocket. It’s part of what makes the Hy-Road one of the most special balls in the history of bowling. Fragrance: Grape Punch.

The new Storm balls will be available in mid July, introduction has been pushed back to July 16th.

Storm Adds New Balls For Fall

The new Storm Fire Road™ contains the proven Inverted Fe3 Technology weight block first introduced in the Victory Road™. The advancements made in Fe³ allowed Storm to utilize a larger mass to increase the dynamics, upping the differential approximately 15%.

But ball reaction is the product of both core and coverstock. And while the Victory Roads and Crossroad™ all utilize the proven R2S™ coverstock, Storm is encasing the Fire Road weight block with an R2X™ blend that has previously been reserved for the biggest hitters like the Virtual Gravity™. With a smoothly polished 1500-grit finish and pearl blend, the new Fire Road is sure to fire up the pins and the pocket. Release Date: July 10, 2012

The new IQ and IQ Tour Editionwere designed to continue the Master Line predictability and reliability. The IQ Tour Edition (blue cover) is sure to become your new benchmark ball. The C3 - Centripetal™ Control Core is engineered to yield ample midlane roll while smoothing out the transition. This fast-revving symmetrical shape is unique in its mass distribution and is the brains behind it all.

The new Storm IQ (Red/Blue) is a ball for heavier oil. With an amped up new PFT™ (Progressive Friction Technology) coverstock and dynamic Centripetal™ core (from the Marvel series), the IQ is sure to turn some heads. The Centripetal™ core's symmetrical shape provides countless drilling options. This fast-revving core produces 6” or more of flare and is designed to benefit players of all skill levels. Prepped with a textured 3000-grit Abralon® finish, the IQ’s PFT coverstock emphasizes the break point angle as it grips the dry boards like no other. Release Date: July 10, 2012
