Today I want to spend a little time comparing these 3 pearl asyms. They are very different and very similar at the same time. The Roto Grip Nuclear Cell comes out of the box shiny. It’s clean through the mids and waits until the end of the pattern to really pop. With the shiny surface … Continue reading Roto Grip Nuclear Cell vs Storm Omega Crux vs Storm Snap Lock

I frequently mention that I typically like to “crack the factory polish” on many out of the box polished balls. This is not an exclusive thing to Storm just to be clear. With this ball, it is long and crazy sideways with the factory polish. The downlane angle is impressive to be completely honest but … Continue reading Storm Phaze III Surface Adjustment

It’s more to call out the unique characteristics that might make one ball more conducive to a certain … Continue reading Storm Pro-Motion vs Motiv Tank Blitz
