STORM Drive

"One can talk about being innovative or one can beinnovative. We choose the latter.” – Jason Belmonte

DRIVEN TO SUCCEED
When you think about the word ‘DRIVE’ a few Different concepts come to mind. One meaning refers to the actual navigation of a motor vehicle. To determine the path on which it’s moving and the speed chosen to get there. To be behind the wheel or ‘in the captain’s chair’ so to speak. Another meaning relates to a level of motivation one has to succeed, what’s insideof them that pushes them to the limits. When one is willing to put in the extra time and effort to practice their craft, trade or sport, success is imminent. With the new STORM Drive in your hand, your success, too, is imminent.

RELENTLESS DRIVE

Jason Belmonte is one of the most accomplished and talented playersto ever lace up. And when he does so, know that every ounce of Grit and determination goes into each and every shot. No one reaches the pinnacle of their sport without a commitment of astronomical levels to be the best, to compete at a level that makes their opponents stand in awe and offer up their congratulations at the end of the event. This determination is inside of Jason Belmonte and it’s also inside of the STORM brand. This Drive is what fueled the engineering of the unique Dual-Drive Weightblock, which you might recall was an industry first.

To complement the original Timeless, we developed a new R2S Nano Hybrid shell which adds traction to better handle more Oil, both in the heads and at the end of the pattern. In testing, we saw an increased midlane of more than 5%, meaning that it gave us predictability in the part of the lane that matters the most! And, due to the unique dynamics and characteristics of the Dual-Drive Weightblock, we did not sacrifice entry angle while doing so. It actually created MORE entry angle, a key to striking even on off-pocket hits. STORM is a company of bowlers, working hard to design and develop the finest bowling balls on the planet for bowlers like you. That’s why we are “The Bowler’s Company.”

AN INDUSTRY FIRST
The inception of the Dual-Drive was born of a sprawling development process that has spanned years. This could not be achieved without placing a Weightblock of specific size and shape inside of another Weightblock. The outer Weightblock incorporates strategically placed geometric shapes that, in conjunction with the inner Weightblock, establishes a new standard in bowling ball motion – faster revving action with a higher level of energy transfer at the pins.

OMETHING NEW. SOMETHING AWESOME
R2S Nano bridges the gap between two of STORM's primary Coverstocks: R2S and NRG Reactive materials. It actually created more entry angle, a key to striking even on off-pocket hits.
