    Cover: Reactor Hybrid Weightblock: Circuit Core Finish: 1500 polish RG: 2.51 Differential: 0.030 Me: Right-Handed Tweener Speed: 12-13 mph Rev Rate: 315 Ball Layout: Pin over Ring 4.5 Pin to PAP 2 Inch Pin Buffer The new Storm Electrify is the newest "Hot" line release and was designed to be a bit of a power upgrade from the Match and Match Up lines. The Hybrid version is a clean but smooth rolling ball that gives you plenty of hook for your money! The Circuit core is a lower RG offering that helps the ball get into a roll and maintain a great controllable reaction. The Stinger 2.0 that was featured in the Match Ups had an RG of 2.57 in 15. The Circuit is a noticeable lower 2.51. You see the difference right away on the lane as the Electrify gets rolling earlier. The polished finish on the reactor cover helps the ball easily clear the front and the combination of the two makes this ball a fantastic benchmark reaction at an entry level price point. I had a chance to test the Electrify Hybrid where I most hoped to use it, on a broken down lane condition. I was pretty surprised at how quickly it picked its roll up in the friction. I definitely had to be further left with it than I was used to being with the Match Up. It still does a great job of retaining energy so that move left is fine with me. I makes it a pretty seamless move when I'm getting out of the more agressive balls as I can often not have to change much more than the ball.

    Storm's new addition to the Hot Line is the new Electrify Hybrid! This features the Reactor Hybrid Reactive Coverstock wrapped around the Circuit Core! This ball with give you a lot of bang for your buck and with it being a hybrid it will be smoother than the Electrify Pearl! My Electrify Hybrid is drilled a little bit different than normal with the pin in my ring finger with the cg kicked out! This ball because of how I drilled and the ball itself really sees the midlane very well for a weaker ball and have a good punch down lane when it hits the pins! I can see this complementing a Hyroad, Hyroad X, balls that are similar to those! Head over to your local Storm VIP Pro Shop and get yours today!

    The Electrify hybrid is the second part of Storm's new low end line. It features the all new Circuit Core and is wrapped with the Reactor Hybrid cover. It is hard not to compare the Electrify Hybrid to the Electrify Pearl since they both are being released at the same time. The Electrify Hybrid forced me a few boards further left with my feet from where I was standing with the Electrify Pearl. To me, the Hybrid is everything the Pearl is not. The Electrify Hybrid has a sleek look to it with the Black/Silver and Neon Red colors where the Pearl has the bright pink and blue. It is a pinch smoother overall because of the Hybrid coverstock. This will be a ball for players that want a cleaner motion, but don't want that uncontrollable downlane reaction. I think the Electrify Hybrid bridges the gap nicely between an Electrify Pearl and say any of the !Qs. I'm not afraid to say that if you cracked the shell with a 1000 or 2000 pad, this ball could handle a lot more oil. If left at box finish or near box, it will be perfect for drier house shots and will get a ton of play at the end of a long tournament block. Much like the Electrify Pearl, the Electrify Hybrid will be friendly to players with higher rev rates on the drier conditions along with players who are looking to stay to the outside of the rest of the field. I didn't mention this in the first video but upon reflection, I think this line of balls will be perfect for people who are looking to learn how to hook a ball or want that step above plastic/entry level. You really get a Big Bang for your buck here.

    Introducing Storm's new low end hybrid, the Electrify Hybrid. The Electrify Hybrid has the new Circuit Core wrapped with the Reactor Hybrid Coverstock. With a RG of 2.51 and a differential of .030, this ball is a great piece for when you need a ball that is very clean and angular downlane. When you find your lower end balls like the hyroad being too early, this ball is a great step down because its still going to give you the length you see from the hyroad but it'll be smoother and not as violent in the backend. The Electrify Hybrid and Electrify Pearl are an awesome 1-2 punch so make sure you get both in your arsenal! This ball is best used for very dry lane conditions or older surfaces. This ball strikes a ton and is a steal for the price point that it is at! Get yours at your local Storm VIP Pro Shop! Nate Garcia PBA Regional Champion

    My Electrify Hybrid is drilled with my normal symmetric layout which is 7/8 pin off center line and CG 2 inch from center line. With this ball having the hybrid cover its earlier than the pearl version, but with the core numbers being 2.51 rg and .30 cg (15lbs) it has some more backend, but eariler than a Surge or Electrify Pearl. The ball works great for me because I like to stand far left and throw up the gutter, but allows me to also move in slighty without giving away the pocket with an earlier motion. Definetly not the first ball out of the bag, but will be good for dry lanes of shorter patterns where the break point is outside.
