    Sam Cooper. Roto Grip Amateur Staffer. The new 900 Global Sublime Focus features the 804 blend Solid cover with the Immersed AI core. In my opinion this ball is cleaner than the Roto Grip Optimum Idol but rolls earlier than a Storm Phase 2. I think it fits that gap perfectly. The ball reaction is not as smooth as the Optimum Idol but not as quick off the spot as the Phase 2. To me this would be a very good ball for tougher conditions with its reaction characteristics. The Focus does not seem to read the spot too early or do anything too much on the down lane. It does need some oil on the lanes to be utilized properly. The shelf appeal of this ball is nice as well. If you are looking for a strong option that gets down lane this would be a good option. I did drill the Focus with a weaker pin to pap distance of 5.5”(up). I wanted to see if it would be usable or versatile in different scenarios. One night in burn league we were on a tighter pair felt like there was a lot of oil down lane. I decided to try the focus and man was I impressed. Not only was I impressed how it reacted on a house shot. I was also impressed at how well it went through the pin deck. It did not seem to deflect much at all and drove into the 8 pin(as long as the operator threw it correctly that is). The strong yet smooth reaction gives this ball life in multiple situations. I tested the Focus on a 38 ft sport pattern, and you could see how much cleaner it was than an Optimum Idol read the spot well. For the house pattern I left it slightly lane shined and for the sport pattern I used a 2000 pad. This ball will help you remain Focused on the lanes for sure.

    The Sublime Focus is a strong, consistent symmetrical ball that provides a control option that is earlier than the likes of the Phaze 2 or Optimum Idol. As a result, this ball slots in the top of the symmetrical solids in the SPI lineup. As an earlier, slower step up from the rest of the line, this ball is great for calming down sparking backends on flatter patterns, blending out over/under, and generally controlling the lane front to back whether the conditions are flat, cliffed, or anywhere in between. The Sublime Focus is a great option for speed dominant players for whom the Phaze 2 and Optimum Idol are too clean/long. If you need a new big control symmetrical ball, this is the one!

    The Sublime Focus bowling ball shouldn’t be overlooked – there is a lot of consistent performance in this ball. The Sublime Focus features a Reserve Blend 804 Solid Reactive coverstock and the Immersed Symmetric A.I. Core. As of recent, this bowling ball has quickly become one of my favorite strong symmetrical balls. I drilled my Sublime Focus with my standard pin-up layout that I normally use on stronger symmetrical bowling balls: 60 x 5 x 30. Such layout and core combination results in this bowling ball flaring quite a lot. The coverstock of the Sublime Focus seems to be very strong and with out of the box surface, the bowling ball feels very early, strong and forward down the lane. Once the surface of the Sublime Focus shined itself up a bit, I saw a very controllable ball motion with a lot of mid-lane reaction. I was very pleased how this bowling ball rolled on several medium patterns. The strength of this coverstock is very noticeable as I felt like I needed to make an adjustment nearly every other shot. I am quite impressed with the Sublime Focus and I believe lots of players would have great success with this bowling ball. I think this ball fits great between strong asymmetrical bowling balls like Harsh Reality and cleaner symmetrical bowling balls like Summit Ascent. I think those bowlers who are looking for strong symmetrical bowling ball will really enjoy throwing the Sublime Focus. Also, bowlers who tend to throw it faster, will find this bowling ball to give them a very good mid-lane reaction. In my opinion, this ball will work best on fresh, heavier volume medium patterns where you need to have a little more control in the back part of the pattern. Finally, because of the strength of this coverstock, I believe the Sublime Focus will work great on majority of house patterns.

From my first release on the lanes, I found the combination of the Immersed Symmetric A.I. and Reserve Blend 804 Solid coverstock to bring consistent, predictable, and powerful results to my Sublime Focus. And as a straighter player, I couldn’t ask for a better symmetrical solid combination. So, let’s take a closer look at what makes the Sublime Focus the ball to add to your arsenal! The Immersed Symmetric A.I. Core brings a dual combination of precision and intensity to the Sublime Focus. The inner Immersed Symmetric Core is a large barbell-shaped core. And because of that shape and size, it allows us slower rev players to build the momentum we need at the pins without the ball running out of gas and leaving a flat ten. Further, unlike small, quicker rev’ing symmetric cores, I liked how its rev’ing motion was predictable, consistent, and, most importantly -where I wanted to see it! Straighter players like me will be more confident in their shot with the Immersed Symmetric Core. Further, when you add the A.I. Technology to the Immersed Symmetric Core, you have the intensity at the pins we straighter players love to see, especially from a symmetrical ball. I loved how the Immersed A.I. Symmetric crushes at the pins. And with the added A.I. technology, I could count on the Sublime Focus to carry my weakest and light off my hand shots! So, if you’re a straighter, low-rev player like me, the Immersed Symmetric A.I. Core can be your best friend. The Reserve Blend (R.B.) 804 Solid Coverstock is another example of 900 Global’s ingenuity in the modern game. The RB 804 is an excellent solid mixture that works well in many different types of conditions. Yes, it is a solid, so of course, it works well on fresh THS conditions. However, what I liked most about the RB 804 Solid was its ability to easily blend the many different types of challenging conditions. In particular, when straighter players like me are up against high-rev urethane bowlers, navigating around them can be difficult, and finding a line that will score - is quite frustrating. However, with the RB 804, I liked how the RB 804 blended the over-under and erratic conditions urethane leaves behind. I enjoyed staying in my comfort zone and still having room to create a motion that keeps me in the pocket. So, if you are a straighter player like me, you can count on the Reserve Blend 804 Solid to get you through some of those rough conditions and keep you in the match. In closing, 900 Global has done an outstanding job releasing the Sublime Focus, and the Sublime Focus is certainly not a choice you want to overlook. The Sublime Focus for any straighter player like me is strong, predictable, and reliable, and it will be an excellent choice to add to your arsenal. So, stop into your local Storm VIP Pro Shop today and have your Sublime Focus ready for tonight’s league! It is well worth it!

    Ball Specs: Global Sublime Focus Cover Stock 804 Solid Reactive Immersed Symmetric A.I Core Finish 2000 Grit Abralon Layout 4 x 4 x 2” Pin Buffer Bowler Specs: Right Hand. PAP 5” Over 1/2 up Rev Rate 300. Tilt 20. Rotation 50. Speed at release 17 Review: I have not seen the Sublime Focus rolled much around here. The ball has just been released and based on the success I have had with the Original Sublime I felt this would be a good ball. I can say The Sublime Focus was better than expected. This ball hits hard! I feel this is one that the A.I. core difference in hit really shows. The Focus even has a different, harder sound as it hits the pins. The Sublime Focus Hooks plenty but is still versatile. The Sublime Focus was forgiving when I was not very solid with my release or targeting. I feel this ball will cover a wide range of oil patterns and was very good on our slicker house shot. I could keep the ball on a tighter path in the oil or swing it to the friction with good results. The motion of this ball is pretty clean for a solid and seems to rev up nicely on the back end. The Sublime Focus should be a very good ball for a large segment of bowlers so I hope it does not get overlooked in the lineup. Hopefully bowlers can get to a Storm Match Maker Demo to roll and appreciate this ball. I would put this ball under the Ion Max and but above the Phase 2 in total hook. I think this one will be in the bag for league next week. Summary: The Sublime Focus has a nice predictable move. The roll and continuation through the pins is excellent. This ball should fit a wide range of styles and lane conditions.

    Ball Reviews: Ion Max: Asymmetric, strong and designed for heavy oil conditions. The Ion Max with its strong engine will combat the heaviest of oil. Built for the fresh to play on top of it early and slowly migrating in as the transition begins, the Ion Max will be the strongest ball out the bag. This ball can be used with a lot of volume, tighter oil conditions and/or longer oil patterns. Sublime Focus: Symmetric and strong. What I like about this ball is the ability to keep my angles tight and up the lane when there is more oil or they are tighter and the stronger asymmetric's are too much ball. For comparison purposes against the other symmetric solids, this will be earlier than a Phaze 2 and provide a heavier roll smoother roll. Phaze AI: The Phaze AI is a throwback to those cleaner angular Storm bowling balls. This ball reminds me of what the UC2 provided with discernible backend motion. This ball will be usable for when the lanes begin to transition, open up and left to right (for righties/reverse for lefties) is needed without losing angle and continuation down lane. This is a great option to have when the solids become too smooth. Video Review: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DwBg2kS4_vg

  • Sublime Focus- Solid Symmetrical

    Posted by Darren Wong on Oct 17th 2024

    The Sublime Focus is the Sublime with a solid reactive coverstock. I love the original Sublime (just read my review of it), so putting the Solid 804 Blend cover on the Sublime was intriguing. Sure enough, the solid cover made it read the front part of the lane noticeably earlier than the original Sublime. The lower RG rolls quicker to ensure it doesn’t miss the midlane. The higher differential means it still had enough track flare potential to create good downlane motion. The Sublime Focus is a good choice if you are looking for a symmetrical ball on medium to heavy volume oil patterns. It won’t overskid and you can go up the lane with it or circle it if need be. I drilled mine pin up, 4 ½ from my PAP.

  • Rolls so good

    Posted by Todd Pawlak on Oct 13th 2024

    Mine is pin up, and one of my most hooking balls in my bag. Rolls so well, I liked it a lot better when it got a little lane shine on it. The more it rolls, so far, the better its getting for the lanes I'm bowling on. If I go 1st ball out on the lanes, this ball features the new Reserve Blend 804™ Solid Reactive cover stock matched with its Immersed™ Symmetric A.I. Core, this ball meets the odds for sure. Out of the box it comes at 2000. It reacts great mid lane, then it likes the back end as well. In testing, A.I. Core Technology has been seen to strike more on the light pocket hits due to the increased energy distribution, so hopefully I wont leave as many 10 pins lol!

    900 Global Sublime Focus Core: Immersed Symmetric Cover: Reserved Blend 804 solid reactive Layout: 4 x 4 x 2 Using on Pro-Lane panels with THS for 44ft. Hi everyone, I hope all is going well in the first half of the fall bowling season! I decided to “try” to replace my current benchmark ball that I have used in league since last year. The Roto Grip Hustle X-Ray. Don’t get me wrong, I LOVE my 2 X-Rays but was looking to see if there was a “better” ball. I have drilled other balls from the three brands, and I have liked or loved them, but nothing has been so “steady” for me like the Hustle X- Ray. My first few rolls were better than I anticipated, I was able to start 5 boards right of my normal starting spot on the approach, but still use my target right between the 2 tracer boards down lane. I was able to stay in that area for about 40 consistent shots. Which with the X-Ray or the Ion Pro, I would have been adjusting after about 25-30 shots. My strike percentage increased by 12% over the Ion Pro and X-Ray in the same 40 consistent shots. Where I would leave blow out 10’s with the Ion Pro and weak 7’s with the X-Ray, the Sublime Focus gave me a little extra kick when carrying the corner pins. After I completed these 40 shots, I started working with the Focus by closing and opening my launch angles I was able to work with the Focus across the whole lane. Where my other 2 choices would have been a little harder to cover all the same territory on the lane, the Sublime Focus covered it all. Watching clients using them during Matchmaker events, I must encourage them to try it because they see all the hype on the Ion Pro and Ion Max, that once they try it, they lean towards the Sublime Focus. My honest opinion is that the Sublime Focus is the BEST 900 Global since they introduced the original Zen several years ago. Please DO NOT lose FOCUS on this ball. See your local Pro Shop Operator and check out what the hype is all about. My link to my YouTube video is: 900 Global Sublime Focus by Roto Grip Rick - YouTube

    Welcome back as we have a great one for you from 900 Global! I want to thank you for watching and reading these reviews and hope it gives you some information to take back when looking to get your next bowling ball. TESTING ENVIRONMENT Length:42 Type (THS, Sport Pattern etc): House Shot BALL: 900 Globall Sublime Focus Coverstock: Reserve Blend 804 Solid Coverstock Core: : Immersed™ Symmetric A.I. Core Finish: 2000 Grit RG: 2.49 (14 Pounds) Differential: 0.050 (14 Pounds) MB/PSA: NA (14 Pounds) ME: Right-Handed Tweener Speed: 14-15 mph Rev Rate: 210 PAP: 4 7/8 right 5/8 up Ball Layout: 4x4x4 The Sublime Focus is a much bigger and stronger version of the original Sublime. Now we have a Sublime for the fresh or a longer pattern. I found this ball to be very strong on a fresh as my first shot to see what we had was standing on 20 and looking at the 2nd arrow and after this one shot I knew we had to move left. It looked to really want to dig into the lane and off the pattern it broke loose. I moved 5 boards with my feet and started to target 12 and that ball seemed to get dialed in. I threw a few shots from there and then kept moving left to see how far I can go and after a few shots I just couldn't get the ball to stay on line and found that the Ion Max was a better choice from this zone. So if you are in the market for a bigger and stronger ball this would be a great option for league and tournament players alike.

The Focus features the same Immersed Core with A.I. technology in the original Sublime, this time wrapped in the 804 Reserve Blend solid cover. This is one of the most powerful Symmetric cores ever. For me the original Sublime was remarkably early for a polished ball. I tested the Sublime Focus for the first time in league. I was concerned about having as much oil as possible for this ball and it seemed like waiting for a fresh lane condition was smartest. I was shocked to find that if anything I had an easier time getting the Sublime Focus down-lane compared to the original Sublime. The Focus still gave me the strong consistent mid-lane read but it didn't stand up as sharply when it saw friction. The more drawn out transition in the back of the lane makes this ball more continous. It was plenty of ball to handle the fresh oil, but I was blown away with how well it continued to carry as the lane forced me left. I think this ball will match up to a wide variety of bowling styles. It's getting to be almost cliche to compare a ball to the Phaze II, but this ball really makes me think of the Phaze II's versatility. It is no doubt a stronger hooking ball overall, but this ball responds so well to hand position changes, and surface changes that it's standing out to me as a must for your tournament bag and an easy staple for league play.

  • Rolls Well

    Posted by Thomas Szczepaniak on Oct 4th 2024

    The Sublime Focus has a very smooth and predictable roll for myself. I have actually been switching to this ball during transition around game 2 and it gets the corners out. I am also able to move in a little with this ball and due to it rolling up quicker it sets up and drives through the pins unlike any other solid I have used in the past. This ball is a great ball for tournaments where the lanes can be challenging.

  • Sublime Focus Review

    Posted by Adam Chase on Oct 2nd 2024

    Layout: 4 1/2 x x 3 1/2 x 4 Surface: 2000 Abralon The sublime Focus brings back the Immersed AI core paired with the new Reserve Blend 804 Solid coverstock. Sources have told me that this coverstock has nano particles in it to give that added traction in the heavier oil conditions. I drilled this one pin down to give me the ability to play straighter angles through the front of the lane while still giving me that strong midlane read. This sublime not only gets through the front well, but has great continuation. On my 44ft house shot, it was great on the fresh as expected. The solid coverstock blended the lane really well and had great pin carry. It also provided a lot of control which is what is needed on the fresh. When the front part of the lane broke down, I was able to move in more with my feet but to keep up with the pin carry, I needed to slow my ball speed down. This is pretty typical for a strong solid coverstock bowling ball. Balling down to the original sublime after the focus would be the most ideal situation for this ball once the focus becomes too smooth down lane. The most ideal conditions for the focus are the fresh for a typical house pattern or medium to longer sport patterns where there is a lot of oil volume. This would be a great step up and smoother option than the original sublime. Compared to the Harsh Reality Solid, the focus will be about 4 boards weaker overall and have a little better continuation. Adam Chase Storm Staff

  • Sublime Focus!

    Posted by Joshua L. Shoemaker on Oct 1st 2024

    The Sublime Focus features the same Immersed Symmetric AI core found in the original Sublime but is now wrapped in 804 Reserve Blend Solid. I personally was not a huge fan of the original Sublime. It was heavy rolling for a cleaner piece but too quick for me to play straighter with it. The Sublime Focus with the substantially stronger and slower cover offers a much more consistent shape for my eyes. The Sublime Focus is the perfect one ball for my league bag or a two ball in most tournament bags. The Sublime Focus is now available for purchase from any Storm VIP Pro Shop!

    The 900 Global Sublime Focus, featuring the Reserve Blend 804 Solid cover and Immersed™ Symmetric A.I. core, is a fantastic addition to any bowler's arsenal. Drilled 5 x 5 x 3, it starts up a bit earlier than the Optimum Idol but maintains a similar backend reaction to the original Sublime, providing a great balance of control and power. I've found it strikes consistently from various angles, making it my go-to league ball. If you're looking for reliability and performance, the Sublime Focus is a must-have—don’t miss out!

    Posted by Tobias M on Sep 26th 2024

    The 900 Global Sublime Focus feature the Reserve Blend 804 Solid Reactive Cover, Immersed Symmetric AI Core, and comes at 2000-grit. The Focus is the second ball in the Sublime and includes the new reserve blend 804. First off, this thing is a hook monster. I was expecting it to be strong but it was much stronger than I thought. For me, it was too much for a house shot and even on a challenge pattern that I filmed on, it just didn’t match up for me. Too be honest, I don’t match up with solid syms very well regardless. I compared it to the Optimum Idol and the OI feels a touch earlier and more round. The Focus was a bit longer but a lot more shape down lane. I think this ball will be in between the OI and P2 as far as front to back hook but I think the overall strength puts this ball above them both. This ball will need oil and be great for the heavier volumes. This is going to be another great release from 900 Global!

    I drilled the new 900 Global Sublime Focus 5x5x1 using the vls system. This particular layout gives me more flare out of the ball down lane. My first reaction to the Sublime Focus was super smooth and controllable. This ball reminds me of the Phaze 2 but a touch earlier. The new 804 Blend cover stock gives you almost a "benchmark" shape. Although i think this ball is a little strong to be considered a Benchmark ball, its still very close reaction wise. This ball would fit the 2 spot in a 6 ball tournament bag for me. I will definitely be drilling more of these in the future. Highly recommend!

    The new Sublime focus is the latest addition to the 900 Global product line. Following the success of the original Sublime the new Sublime Focus features the 804 blend solid cover and using AI technology. I used the layout 45x4.5x50 this ball needs some oil. This ball out of the box is 2,000 grit really wants to rev up and see the mid lane and is very smooth and the new benchmark for 900 global.

  • Oil monster

    Posted by P-Luc Larouche on Sep 23rd 2024

    Wow The Sublime Focus is a oil monster ! For sur, the strongest ball in my bag. Like to the original Sublime, the Focus offering a smooth and predictable motion but on more oiled conditions. She gives me a clean reaction on the fronts with a smooth, controlled move downlane, it's perfect on big oiled conditions. If you want a ball for helping you for heavier oil, the Sublime Focus makes a great choice or also for the bowlers that not have big rotation, she will help you to give you the help to go on the pocket. The sublime Focus is now my first choice to put in my bag on the tournament road when I know that I will need some rugh surface.

    The Sublime Focus gives me a clean look through the fronts with a smooth, controlled move downlane, making it perfect for medium to lighter oil conditions. It blends the pattern well without being too sharp or jumpy at the breakpoint, which is what I really like about it. Compared to the original Sublime, the Focus is more predictable, offering a smoother, more manageable motion when lanes start to break down. If you’ve got a ball like the Phase 2 for heavier oil, the Sublime Focus makes a great compliment when you need something that will still finish strong but won’t overreact when the lanes start to dry up. It's versatile and reliable, offering a nice balance of control and continuation.
