For the new Frantic, we wanted a reliable, proven coverstock that would provide a clean glide through the heads and attack the drier boards on the backend. R2S™, the second generation of Reactor™ coverstock material, is the perfect choice as it does just that. With a pearl and a solid version available in the line, we prepared a hybrid version to see if it blended both power and control. Armed with the exact same coverstock as the Hy-Road™, it proved itself quickly during the testing process and moved on to the next phase, surface preparation. With a 1500-grit polished finish, the new Frantic was impressive during C.A.T.S.® testing as it created three times the entry angle of the 2Furious. Looking under the hood, you’ll find the innovative N.O.S. Core. When compared with the Turbine™ Core, we created an increase of flare potential by more than 15% with this higher volume core. Wrap this core with the same coverstock as the Hy-Road and it’s easy to see why the bowling world is sure to be frantic over this new masterpiece!

Review- Storm Frantic Nick C. BowlerX staff member Weight- 16lbs Surface- 2000 abralon Recommended lane condition- medium-heavy oil house shot Pin Placement- 4-5 I drilled my Frantic with the cg on the center of my grip and the pin to the top right of the ring finger. I left the frantic surface out of the box initially and will say I was very surprised at how strong this ball is.. I was thinking it was going to be one of the weakest in my line but turned out to be one of the biggest hookers I had. I found that out of the box shine caused the ball to be very "flippy" ... as soon as it touched the dry it was "dead left" as some may say. Since the abralon pad this ball is amazing just gives the ball enough of an early roll to make it controllable and predictable. I will also say this is one of the hardest hitting balls there is... when a good shot is made, this ball absolutely destroys the pins. If you are looking for a ball that is in my opinion one of the best values in bowling then I suggest the frantic from storm. this ball offers a wide array of options and tons of carry power for a very small price.
