Storm Fringe Bowling Ball

Hello all, thanks for reading. As always the link to our video review is here : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-eemoysfXw8&feature=BFa&list=UUUdapKcbpNzp3PGwdo7P6GQ The Storm Fringe is a natural follow up for the Frantic and the Manic. This ball easily glides through the front part of the lane and maintains its energy until a strong angular move on the backend. After seeing a few go down the lane I decided to use a fairly low RG layout to help relieve some of the angularity. I used 50 x 4 3/4 x 65 for a layout helping this ball be usable for my game. I am able to use this ball on high friction surface patterns such as wood and HPL during league or during medium to longer sport patterns such as the scorpion or the shark. As the fronts break down I can use the Fringe longer while maintaining a straighter initial angle through the front part of the lane. The Angular move at the back part of the lane shreds pins apart. Don't underestimate the hook potential or hitting power for this piece. Its a hit for sure.

COVERSTOCK R2S™ Pearl Reactive WEIGHT BLOCK: N.O.S.™ Core LIGHT WEIGHT BLOCK: Modified Centripetal™ Core FACTORY FINISH: 1500-grit Polished BALL COLOR: Ruby/Yellow DUROMETER: 74-76 Rex D-scale FLARE POTENTIAL: 4” - 5” (Medium-High) FRAGRANCE: Pina Colada WEIGHTS: 10-16 lbs. SKU: TFG My layout: 65 x 4 1/4" x 30 My PAP: 4 3/4" over 1 5/8 up The Fringe from Storm is a straight pearl ball that comes out of the box 1500 polished. I have been using this ball on a 39ft pattern that has been hooking more then usual. I throw the ball fairly straight, so in the past I had no trouble using aggressive balls on this condition. I was having trouble getting the ball down the lane lately, so I had to play more left then I wanted, which compromised my angle to the pocket as well as carry. I switched to the Fringe and the lane and pocket opened right up for me. I didn’t have to work at all to get the ball through the heads. The ball stores energy very well and hits the pocket extremely hard for me. I have also used the ball on a long house shot with heavier oil. I was still impressed with the ball’s reaction and the way it still hot the pocket with power. I also really like the fact that even though the ball stores a lot of energy, it never gets skid/flippy, therefore I control the ball pretty easily. This ball will make a great addition to anyone’s tournament bag.

The FRINGE ball details are here: http://www.stormbowling.com/products/balls/fringe I drilled a 3 inch pin out up 4 inches from PAP and CG 3/4 of an inch right of center line, basically Storm's 4 x 5 x 2. On typical house shots this ball is a great value for product given. I put into use when the Manic is grabbing the lane to early or losing energy off the spot. You may need to alter the versatile cover with abralon on polish based on individual needs. Would recommend FRANTIC and MANIC for a 1-2-3 arsenal punch!
