Storm Virtual Energy Video Ball Review

Since the release of the Virtual Gravity™, Storm has been inundated with positive feedback and inquires of future designs. The combination of the Gravity Shift™ and Virtual Gravity™
gave bowlers a look that they had never seen before on heavier oil; mid-lane control with explosive back-end reactions. One of the greatest features is their adaptability on changing back-end motion depending on the layout chosen.

Our intent with the Virtual Energy™ is to utilize the early revving motion and explosive back-end characteristics of the Shape-Lock™ HD core, along with the performance proven R2X™ coverstock. The coverstock is the key element to this equation and engineering the right blend of solids and pearls to create the perfect compliment to its predecessors.

Overview:

The testing phase brought several factors into play. We tested several coverstock combinations with the profilometer, as well as, on-lane C.A.T.S. testing. Our goal was to develop a ball that utilizes the best characteristics of its predecessors as well as creating its own unique performance.

Our final product is the R2X™ Hybrid. The combination of the two pearls and a solid reactive delivers the perfect fit within our product line. The solid generates just enough mid-lane read on the heavier volume patterns, while the two pearlized parts deliver the strong motion on the back-end.

The Virtual Energy™ is the perfect complement to Storm’s Premier line of bowling balls.

Columbia 300 Cool Noize Video Bowling Ball Review

The Cool NoiZe is positioned between The NoiZe and the Loud NoiZe in terms of total hook. This ball should give any bowler an eye-popping reaction on medium lane conditions. This ball, which features our TI Boss II core design, is surrounded by our 300 Reactive Pearl shell, making this ball as ‘Cool’ as they come.

The One Pearl from Ebonite Video Ball Review

Take The ONE from Ebonite, add on some extra muscle and what do you get? The ONE Pearl–a stronger, more aggressive version of The ONE. So, what exactly makes The ONE Pearl stronger? By pearlizing the GB 10.7 coverstock, we’ve added even more power to The ONE, giving The ONE Pearl more length and an even sharper approach to the pins, resulting in increased pin carry.

Ebonite Complete NV Ball Review

Here are the detailed specs on the Ebonite Complete NV Ball:

Coverstock: Traxion Reactive 0.45
Weight Block: Spike Symmetric Mass Bias Version 1B
Ball Color: Purple/Blue/Silver Pearl
Mass Bias Rating: 0.022
Length: 23
Hook: 48
RG Differential: 0.043 (Medium) on a scale of .000-.080 Low Flare-High Flare
RG Average: 2.51 (Low) on a scale of 2.43-2.80 Very Low-High Break Point
Recommended Lane Conditions: Medium to Heavy Oil Conditions
Description: It’s Complete NV. And no wonder. This ball performs even in high oil conditions. That’s because its new Traxion Reactive coverstock and Spike Core, Version 1B work in tandem to bring better performance in the backend. So get one. Have it drilled to your specs and watch it perform. Then check out the looks you get.

Here are some user reviews we found on the Complete NV:

I know that no one is supposed to have this ball but our distributor had their seminar and handed them out anyway to some of use after the reps left. Worldwide release, what are they releasing, a Harry Potter book. Anyway, I drilled the Complete NV up like my other NV’s so I could compare them against each other. Don’t look for too much of a difference. It’s just OK. It looks like they just turned out another ball, you would be much better off just buying something a little less expensive. The price of the ball also is going up a few dollars, why, I guess because they think they can. See ya Ebonite. You need to “read” the handwriting on the wall.

I got this ball drilled going out on a limb because I haven’t liked or had success with good ol’Ebonite since the TPC Warrior, but this thing out hooks any pearl I have ever thrown. I got the recommended long n’ strong layout and that is exactly what it does. I bowled with it after my 3 game league was over and could barely keep it in the pocket, it wants to HOOK. I would recommend this ball to anyone as long as they want it to go really long and take a huge turn towards the pocket. My Resurgence has a similar drilling and close to the same surface (shined up close to the nv)and this complete nv out hooks it by feet, not boards..I’ve only shot 3 games with it and its ball motion alone may get ebonite more of my business in the future.
