Storm Phaze II Pearl - Master Line Coverstock: TX-25 Pearl - Power Edge Core: Velocity RG: 2.48 Differential: .051 (15 lbs) Fragrance: Frosted Cinnamon Roll Layout: 5 x 5 x 2.75 PAP: 6" Right, 1 3/8" Up Axis Tilt: 16° Rotation: 51° Rev Rate: 450-500 Speed: 17-18 mph Location: Vista Lanes - Yorkville, NY Pattern: Kegel Carbon (Terrain Conditioner) Lane Surface: Anvilane The wait is OVER…Phaze II Pearl has arrived! The Phaze II Pearl has been specifically designed to fit between the Phaze II Solid and !Q Tour series. It features the new TX-25 pearl cover with a Power Edge finish and the proven Velocity core. Unlike the Phaze AI, the Phaze II Pearl does not have AI to ensure ball motion that mimics the Phaze II Solid. The cover has also been upgraded to maximize performance. The cover/core combination will generate a balance of control and power that is expected from the Phaze series. The Phaze II Pearl gave me a great look sliding on 27, looking 16 at the arrows with my breakpoint around 7-8. When compared to the IQ Tour AI, the Phaze II Pearl is stronger and makes a quicker change in direction off the end of the pattern. When your Phaze II Solid or symmetric solid starts to pick up too early, it will be the perfect ball to go to in league or tournament play. Within my bag, the Phaze II Pearl will be a step down from the Rockstar, but above IQ Tour AI. Stop by your local Storm VIP pro shop to check it out!

TESTING ENVIRONMENT Type: Lakes Bowl House Shot BALL: Storm Phaze ll Pearl Coverstock: TX-25 Pearl Core: : Velocity Core Finish: Power Edge RG: 2.53 (14 Pounds) Differential: 0.050 (14 Pounds) MB/PSA: NA (14 Pounds) ME: Right-Handed Tweener Speed: 14-15 mph Rev Rate: 220 PAP: 5 7/16 Right 1/8 Down Ball Layout: 50x4¼x40 The Phaze II Pearl is what bowlers worldwide have been asking for — a versatile, responsive complement to our lineup. For nearly 10 years, the premier choice for symmetric performance on medium to heavy oil has undoubtedly been the Phaze II. The Phaze II Pearl broadens the spectrum of performance within the Master line by bridging the gap between the original Phaze II Solid and !Q Tour series. Fragrance: Frosted Cinnamon Roll Release Date: 11/28/25.” The Phaze line and I over the past five releases haven't really seen eye to eye. I threw the Phaze lll after joining the team and instantly fell in love with that ball. So naturally when the Phaze 4 was released I was very eager to get holes in it and see it go do the lane. Shortly after this ball was released the USBC added this and other balls to the “Storm 6” that was deemed not usable and the Phaze 5 was the replacement and I never got them to roll very well for me. When the Phaze AI was released I was on the fence about it because of the 4 & 5 not rolling well for me. I ordered it and put holes in it and even with the AI in this ball again it didn’t roll very well for me. So now we have the Phaze ll Pearl and sadly the same results. I threw it on fresh and it never saw the lane and skidded down the lane. I hit it with a 2000 pad and it shaped a little more but when oil got back on the ball it just went back to skidding down the lane again. I felt as if to make this ball look good my release had to be perfect and only one release made this ball shape. So in preparation for this review I looked back at why the Phaze 3 worked well for me and the 4,5,AI, and P2P did not work so well. All of these balls have the same Velocity Core, but the difference is on the Phaze 3 it is R3S Hybrid, the 4 & 5 had the R2S Pearl, the AI has the TX-16 Pearl and the P2P has the TX-25 Pearl, So with my style it looks like the Velocity Core with a pearl cover isn’t very well for my style of play.

The Storm Phaze 2 Pearl takes the trusted Velocity core from the original Phaze II and wraps it in a new pearlized TX-25 Pearl Reactive coverstock, finished with a polished 1500-grit factory shine. That combo gives you a cleaner look through the front part of the lane than the solid Phaze II, but with that same strong, continuous core motion that made the original so popular. Compared to the Phaze II solid, the Pearl version pushes a few feet further before making its move and is quicker off the spot, giving you more shape and angle when the mids start to go away. Compared to the Roto Grip Rockstar Amped, the Phaze 2 Pearl is smoother in the midlane and not as sharp off friction, offering a more rounded and controllable motion while still providing plenty of pop downlane.

The long-awaited Storm Phaze II Pearl delivers exactly what fans of the original Phaze II were hoping for—a true companion piece that preserves the core motion while adding extra length and pop downlane. Built with the TX-25 Pearl coverstock wrapped around the iconic Velocity Core, this ball provides a familiar read with a noticeably cleaner footprint through the front part of the lane. I drilled mine 4 × 2, matching the layout on my fresh Phaze II, and the relationship between the two is immediately clear. The motion is very similar, but the Phaze II Pearl gets through the midlane with less effort and responds with a sharper, more dynamic move at the breakpoint. Where the Phaze II digs in earlier and rolls heavier, the Pearl version retains that signature control while offering a more angular finish. For bowlers who love the Phaze II—and there are many—this pairing creates an ideal 1–2 punch. Start with the benchmark Phaze II, then transition seamlessly into the Phaze II Pearl as the fronts go and you need added length and recovery without losing the shape you trust. An excellent evolution of a fan favorite, and one that will fit naturally into a wide range of arsenals.

The layout is 4 1/2 x 3 5/8 x 3 7/8 (40 x 4 1/2 x 65 using the dual angle layout) Although this is a pin down layout, it still provides good length, great response to the friction (or dry) while being continuous through the pins. I chose this layout to give me good balance of skid, hook and roll from a pearl coverstock. This TX-25 coverstock makes this Phaze II Pearl compliment the TX-16 coverstock of the orginal Phaze II, which is more earlier and has a more rounder shape. The Phaze II Pearl will definitely cover more boards down lane than the original Phaze II. Having both will complement each other very well. The Phaze II Pearl will be a good league/tournament ball to have in my arsenal, and I can trust what it will do on the lanes. Make sure to grab you one… OR TWO!

The Storm Phaze II Pearl is easily the most anticipated ball release we’ve seen in years, and you can feel that the moment you hit the lanes with it. Bowlers have been begging for a pearl version of the legendary Phaze II for almost a decade, and Storm finally delivered with the TX-25 Pearl cover wrapped around the same trusted Velocity core. What you get is that signature early-revving, stable motion the Phaze II line is famous for, but now with a cleaner look through the fronts and a sharper, more responsive move downlane that still feels incredibly controllable. Honestly, it lives up to the hype — this ball gives me the same confidence I’ve relied on from the solid, but with added length and versatility that fills a hole in the lineup we've all been waiting for Storm to address.
