WE TOOK THE INVERTED FE² AND AMPLIFIED IT

The Inverted Fe² A.I. Core was designed to outperform and help you execute every shot. This medium-high RG and differential infusion will provide a smooth and predictable shape at the end of the lane better than any ball that’s come before it. A.I. Core technology is now offered across all weights so the benefit of “Amplified Inertia” can be experienced no matter what weight you use.



THE VERSATILITY YOU DEMAND IS HERE

When we joined R2S™ with NeX™ in the lab, the results exceeded our expectations. In our testing, we discovered that the NeX foundation produced a similar backend and entry angle numbers because the chemical porosity of R2S is slightly more compact than NeX. We left nothing to chance with this one. Thus, ReX a.k.a. “Reactor Extreme” was born.

The Road Ball Review
I drilled my THE ROAD pin up fairly strong with a 4.5 x 3.5 x 2 VLS layout. I have touched the surface up a couple of times with a 1500 and 2000 pad.

This is a good ball to get thru the fronts when you bigger balls start to read too quickly. I compared it with a couple of my other medium pieces in the SUMMIT PEAK and LIGHTNING BLACKOUT (LIBO). THE ROAD is much earlier read than the LIBO. Where my PEAK is slower off the spot for me, THE ROAD has a little more giddy up in the back end.

When there are dryer fronts and I need later read, then THE ROAD is the go-to piece out of my bag. Drill this one up if you need later read on medium to dryer patterns.

My Savior!
Big fan of this ball in my bag -- so much as I have drilled two of them. 5x5x2 and 5x5x3. Both have complimented each other nicely most recently as I competed in the USBC Queens. We bowled on a 40 foot, 30 mils pattern and this ball allowed me to play in the track area and control the pocket. The higher RG and Differential matches well to my game and with adding surface to the covers, these shaped nicely for what the pattern this week was asking of me. Great piece in your bag!

Storm’s new The Road is a Hybrid Symmetric Piece. This piece is good for Medium-Light Volume Patterns. PAP is 5 5/16 R 1 3/16 Up. Rev Rate: 400. Speed: 16.5. Drilled this piece with the Pin Up between the Fingers and the CG kicked out 1 1/2” from the palm. Burned up 43’ house pattern, Out of Box ball motion was clean through the fronts, with a controllable backend reaction. I compared this piece to the original Hy-Road (2-2 Right). The Road looked like it was a little sharper on the backend than the Hy-Road. This piece fits between the Original Hyroad and the Hy-Road Pearl. And It smells good too. This is a Versatile piece that fits all styles of bowlers.
