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. |
