I drilled my STORM SUMMIT PEAK at a 4.5 x 4 x 2. I left it mainly shined but did lightly hit it with a 3000 Tru Cut pad to get the glaze off. I have thrown it about 10 games since I hit the cover so probably due for another 3000 Tru Cut touch up. I have thrown this on league conditions. In the center I bowl on Mondays at, it just seemed like it needed the lanes to be a touch more dryer to carry better. It would glide thru the fronts easily but not get thru the pins hard enough to carry out tens for me. My RG ATTENTION STAR was more bowling ball and worked much better there. My Tuesday night league gets more blown up in the track area and this ball was golden when they got to that shot. I would use the RG ATTENTION STAR until it got to forward and then step down to the SUMMIT PEAK to take over. When the PEAK was starting to get too forward or flat, then my 900 GLOBAL XPONENT PEARL was in play. The motion was smooth like the original SUMMIT, but the pearl cover got it down the lane quite a bit further than the original.

I am higher speed, rev challenged 220-250ish, high tilt, high rotation, and super low track player. I drilled my Summit Peak 5 x 3 x 2 using Storm VLS. My axis point is 3 1/4 over and 7/8 up. The Summit Peak is a welcomed addition to my arsenal it revs up early and keeps shaping down lane. I generally use this ball game 2 - 3 of league or when there is friction right. The Summit Peak by Storm definitely does not disappoint and the Apple Kiwi Pie scent is amazing! My YouTube video of the ball can be found at: https://youtu.be/pgrr_RXCSt8?si=RRrHkqaM9O_hBCLK

Cover Stock: TX-23 Pearl Reactive Finish: Reacta Gloss Core: Centripetal HD RG: 2.46 Differential: 0.056 The latest addition to Storms Master line is the new Summit Peak. Combining the Centripetal HD with A.I Technology with the Flippy TX-23 Pearl Cover and you have a perfect compliment to the early rolling Summit. The Original summit picked up a roll very quick with a very smooth backend reaction which was great on fresh heavier oil conditions, but when you had to start moving a left, it would tend to lay off on the backend and the Summit Peak is perfect go to ball. The Peak picks up a roll earlier than most pearl balls so you can still throw it on those medium to medium to heavy oil shots, but where it really shines is the backend reaction. When the Summit Peak hits the friction, it wants to pick up go, and rolls very heavy through the pins. For me it is good step down from the Attention Star for me, when I am having trouble getting it through the fronts.

The TX-23 pearl cover stock seems slightly weaker than the TX-16 pearl that is featured on the Journey. The A.I. Tech in the core gives me the same mid lane reaction as the Summit but pearl cover adds some length from front to back. The layout featured on this ball gives me the length and quicker motion off the dry that I need on the lower volume house shots in my area. This layout also allows me to stay to the right during the transition of the house shot during league. I can start with the Journey in the track area then when it becomes too early I can change to the Summit Peak and have more length and sharper back end motion off the end of the pattern. I have not changed the surface on this piece at all. I just let the amount of games remove the polish. I have not used this ball on any PBA 50 patterns yet as the 2024 PBA 50 Tour season has just begun. Pete Dohan Storm Bowling Amateur Staff #StormNation

The new ball in the Storm Master line is the Summit Peak. This is pearl version of the popular Summit. I drilled mine the same as the original 4 1/2 x 4 x 1 3/4 pin up. I was a big fan of the original Summit. But with our league pattern the summit can start to bog down a little late in 2nd game. So perfect time for the summit peak. The Summit peak still has that strong mid lane roll but just a cleaner cover with added length. Personally I think the Peak is a great league ball! I have used the peak with good success on the medium sport patterns. Very versatile ball, as I have drilled several in the shop for all styles. Plus I have noticed with the A.I. Core Technology I seem to carry the light and off hits more. Good looking ball with great shelf appeal. I have the Summit Peak a ball down from the Summit, Phaze II, or the bigger Asymmetricals. Stronger than the IQ's, Hustle lines.

Layout: 55 x 4 5/8 x 30 The Storm Summit Peak combines a flippy coverstock with a quick-revving core, and the end result is a lot of ball motion. Due to it's shiny coverstock prep, it is still best on medium oil lane conditions, but the overall amount of downlane motion is quite impressive. The original Summit is one of my favorite sanded symmetrical balls that Storm has released in quite some time; it can handle a good bit of oil, but is versatile enough to still be quite usable on medium conditions. The Summit Peak takes the reaction of the Summit and moves it 3-4 feet further down then lane, making them a perfect 1-2 punch. With it's out of box surface, the Summit Peak is at home on any medium to medium-dry lane condition.

The new Storm Summit Peak is the latest release in the Summit line. This ball uses the TK-23 Pearl cover an A I Technology. 35x3.5x60 This layout Allows the Summit Peak to shape more in the mid lane and more shape off of the break point. This ball is a great option when you need that big pearl move in and open up your angel.

Ben Lapointe PAP: 4 7/8 over and 1 1/4 up Layout 5.25 x 4.25 x 3 The Summit Peak from Storm is, in my opinion a much needed addition to the Storm family. With the recent discontinuation of the 900 Global Zen, the Summit Peak fits this gap in the bag very well. For it being a shinier ball, it has excellent mid lane read, paired with a nice strong move off the back end of the pattern. Highly recommended!

Ball Specs: Storm Summit Peak TX-23™ Pearl Reactive Weight Block: Centripetal™ HD -A.I. (Symmetrical) Color: Goldenrod/Mint/Iridium Review: The pearl version of the summit was the one we were waiting for. We love the tech and cover SPI blended with the original summit bowling ball. For us it was one of the strongest symmetrical bowling balls we have thrown. Before drilling we really expected this ball was going to be very clean and hook a lot off the spot. We drilled this ball with our normal layout: tweener, 350-375 revs, 16.5mph, layout of choice is 4x4x2 (pin is above bridge). As we expected this ball is very angular. On the fresh this ball is probably too clean for us. If we had to make it work we would probably need to knock the polish off with some surface, probably 2-3k. Because we want this type of shape later in the block we will leave the cover out of box. This ball is a perfect ball down from the original summit, or maybe a solid asymmetrical piece of equipment. We see it blending perfectly in that late game 2 to games 3-4 range. Something in between a first out of bag to say a hustle. Overall we love the look, smell, and logo. This ball has great shelf appeal and if you love to see that clean look down lane with a big snap you will not be disappointed in this piece.

Storm Summit Peak Coverstock: TX-23 Pearl Reactive Finish: Reacta Gloss Core: Centripetal HD – A.I. RG: 2.46, Diff: 0.056 (15 lb.) VLS Layout: 4-1/2 x 5-3/4 x 2 Dual Angle Layout: 75 x 4-1/2 x 30 PAP: 5 3/16” right x 5/8” up Rev rate: 400 rpm Average speed: 16.5 mph Location: Prairie Lanes, Sun Prairie WI Pattern: Medium volume THS The Summit Peak is Storm’s follow-up in the master line to the original Summit. The new Summit Peak features the same Centripetal HD core paired with the Amplified Inertia (A.I.) outer core. However, the difference between these two balls is in the cover – the Peak features the pearl version of the TX-23 coverstock, which is a modernized variation of the TX-16 cover found on the Phaze II. This new core/cover combo creates a fast-revving ball designed to produce a clean and responsive backend motion compared to the original Summit. I’ve had the Summit Peak in my bag for a couple of months now, and it has become my go-to symmetric pearl when I’m in need of a medium-strong ball that easily clears the front part of the lane but maintains a strong roll with a defined backend reaction. The Peak is much cleaner than the original Summit and would be a great ball to switch to after the lanes start to transition. In some ways, the Summit Peak reminds me of another Storm symmetric pearl ball from yesteryear – the Axiom Pearl. Even though the core and cover of the Peak and Axiom Pearl are very different, the overall reaction shape feels similar to me. On the fresh or starting out the league night, the Summit Peak may be a little too clean and angular to be the first ball out-of-the-bag. However, I think the Peak will shine as a transition ball for most bowlers after a couple games of play from balls like the DNA, Summit and Phaze II. Storm has done it again and released a great follow-up to the original as the Summit Peak is a fantastic compliment to the Summit. Chris Pollentier Storm Products Pro Shop Staff #StormNation

Length: 41' Type (THS, Sport Pattern): THS The Storm Summit Peak bowling ball is a game-changer, seamlessly blending power with precision. As its responsiveness is unparalleled with every roll, the angularity of its motion is simply effortlessly slicing through the pins with a calculated ferocity. But what truly sets the Summit Peak apart is its energized performance. Summit Peak features the Centripetal AI core technology found in the Summit but uses the new TX-23 Pearl cover. RG 2.46, Diff 0.056 makes this the early rolling, highest flaring pearl to date. My layout:5 1/4 x 1 1/2 VLS Puts the pin in a versatile position easily manipulated by hand and cover changes. Tested on a higher volume THS the Peak eased into a smooth roll and hard arcing backend motion. Being a lower rev, speed matched it allows me to keep my angles closed and control the fronts. Being this responsive and angular I need to chase the oil in order to use for multiple games in league. Great step down from the Summit Hybrid on blended conditions. Summit Peak is my first or second ball in my league arsenal. Whether you're a seasoned pro or a casual bowler, the Storm Summit Peak will elevate your game to new heights.

Orientation: Right Handed Rev Rate: 400 RPM Speed: 16-17 MPH PAP: 4 ½ over and 1 1/8 up Location: Enterprise Park Lanes, Springfield MO Pattern: High Volume THS VLS Layout: Layout 1: 4 5/8 x 4 x 2 ½ (pin above bridge) Layout 2: 4 1/4 x 4 x 4 1/8 (pin below bridge) The Summit Peak is a brand new Pearl symmetrical. It features an AI Core with a new pearl cover. This makes the Peak cleaner, smooth and continuous which isn’t typical of a sym pearl. Usually they’re more skid snappy but the Peak holds its axis much longer. This allows me to use the Peak to get the ball through the fronts but still be controlled downlane. Much like all the AI balls, the Peak is a unique shape!

The summit peak is THE 1-2 Punch with the Summit. Where the summit is early and wants to pick up in the midlane and be very forward not angular. The summit peak is the super angular compliment. It maintains all the strength of the Summit itself. If your looking for something to play in the sludge with but be super angular off the pattern. This is the ball for you.

Layout: 5 x 4 x 2 1/2 VLS The Summit Peak is the pearl version of the original Summit that was released in the Summer of 2023 and quickly jumped to my ball of the year for 2023. The original Summit definitely hit a wall when the heads started to dry up, so I was really looking forward to a pearl version to get a familiar shape, but get further down the lane and the Summit Peak didn’t disappoint. I was surprised to see how much more angular the Summit Peak was compared to the original. It’s been a great ball down from the original Summit when it starts hooking a bit too early.

One of the newest additions to the Master line at Storm is the Summit Peak. After drilling a few of the original Summit’s and having success with it, I was excited to see the brains in Utah create a pearl version. Not only does the Summit Peak smell like Apple Pie, but it rolls great too. Using the pearl TX-23 coverstock and the A.I. core technology, the Summit Peak has been extremely successful on multiple surfaces from multiple angles. I’ve drilled one so far and really like it. It’s mapped out as 6 x 4.5 x 2. This puts the pin above my middle finger with a good-sized shift of the CG. I’ve left the surface alone since, for me, the goal for the Peak is to be a ball to use after my Eternity-Pi, Gem, or Absolute Power start to see the front of the lane too much and I need something to fly through the front but still pick up the mid-lane and run over the 8-pin. No doubt about it, this ball is strong, so you could probably get away with drilling it a little weaker than expected. The response time is quick and this ball has been really good on multiple occasions. It compliments the line extremely well and I look forward to having more success with it. #StormNation

The Summit Peak features the Centripetal HD core (A.I Technology) wrapped with TX-23 Pearl cover. It’s a great compliment to the original Summit. The Summit has one of the strongest covers so it tends to burn out if not enough oil. The Peak will still store energy while keeping a similar shape. Don’t get me wrong the Peak still needs oil it’s not a traditional long and flippy pearl it still digs earlier but once it makes its move it doesn’t stop! This is a ball I like to use when they are cliffed or longer patterns when they breakdown. Higher speed lower rev players will love this ball! Andrew Smith Storm staff LH Rev rate 420+ Speed 16.5

The Storm Summit Peak features the same Centripetal HD inside the A.I. core as the original Summit, however the Peak is wrapped in the TX-23 pearl reactive coverstock. At 15 pounds the rg is a very low 2.46 with a .056 differential. I drilled mine at 5x4x2 which puts the pin above my middle finger. Don’t let the pearl coverstock fool you, this ball hooks. The low rg core gets the Summit Peak revving very quickly out of the bowler’s hand. This helps the Summit Peak from “missing the spot” at the end of the pattern. Compared to the original Summit, the Peak is about three to five feet longer with a similar total amount of hook. However, the shapes of the two ball reactions are very different. When this ball sees friction, it responds very quickly. The Peak has a very strong, sharp backend motion, and the A.I. core sends pins flying! This ball is great for fresher conditions where there is a defined hook zone. The Summit Peak is a ball where you can throw it to the dry and watch the ball make a left or right turn back to the pocket!

This thing is really fun to throw and it smells AMAZING. Summit Peak HOOKS. This ball right here never misses the spot. This thing sees the midlane and is very strong down lane. When the original Summit came out, It was billed as the strongest symmetrical Storm ball, to date. When you pair the centripetal HD core with the TX-23 cover, you get a hook monster. I need to use this ball on the fresh because that’s when it gives me the most room to miss. Once the pattern gets more defined, I have to ball down to something that doesn’t see the friction so hard. Don’t get it wrong, just because this is a “Symmetrical Pearl” doesn’t mean that it shouldn’t be the first ball out of the bag. This one is one that I push a lot of people to check out. Not to mention the scent is perfect, Apple Kiwi Pie!

The Storm Summit Peak features an early rolling Centripetal HD A.I. Core and the pearl version of the TX-23 coverstock. This is an interesting combination as the low RG core wants to start up early, but the clean coverstock forces the bowling ball to skid further. I have not thrown the original Summit, but I do like what I see out of the Summit Peak. I drilled my Summit Peak with my usual pin-up layout: 65 x 5 x 30. The bowling ball does flare quite a bit and certainly revs up quick. Since the core does feel early, the backend reaction is very rounded. I do like the smooth, controllable backend reaction with a cleaner coverstock as it allows me to stay a little straighter through the front part of the pattern, especially on worn lane surfaces. I do think this Summit Peak will work great on medium patterns that don’t require too much launch angle. I think this will be a great ball when patterns go through their first transition, a little more friction appears, and the stronger asymmetrical bowling balls become too strong. For my higher ball speed, I put a little bit of surface on my Summit Peak and that created an even more predictable and rounded ball motion.

Summit Peak Cover Stock: TX-23 Pearl Reactive Finish: Reacta Gloss Core: Symmetric Fragrance: Apple, Kiwi Pie Review: The Summit Peak is the latest addition to the Summit line and the new generation of AI core technology. With the pearl cover stock, the Summit Peak likes to get through the front part of the lane and create a sharp backend motion that many players are looking for in a ball. I tend to switch to this ball when equipment like my Absolute Power or Harsh Reality becomes too much and I need something that will clear the front parts of the lanes that are fried. When bowling in my league this is generally the first ball out of my bag, being that house shots can be less volume than a tournament shot. Besides the performance of this ball, the appearance of this ball is stunning and will stand out on the lanes. Will Tefft Storm Staff Member will@parklanes.net www.strombowling.com #Stromnation

And with combining the proven Centripetal HD-A.I. Core with the TX-23 Pearl Reactive Coverstock Storm has created a fantastic rolling ball that belongs in any straighter player's arsenal! So, let's take a closer look at what makes the Summit Peak – all that good! The Centripetal HD-A.I. Core was developed in the original Summit and is a symmetrical powerhouse. As a straighter player, I love how the Centripetal HD-A.I. revs with a brisk and well-defined motion in the mid-lane without being overly aggressive. And what I find most appealing about the Centripetal HD-A.I. core is how it responds off the pattern. The Centripetal HD-A.I. is smooth and clean, coming off the spot like you would expect with a symmetrical core. However, the difference is Centripetal HD-A.I. creates a strong angular motion we straighter players love to see. And with its relentless continuation through the pin deck, the Centripetal HD-A.I. makes the Summit Peak an excellent choice for straighter players like me. The TX-23 Pearl coverstock serves the Summit Peak quite well. With its crisp and responsive nature, the TX-23 is an excellent choice for straighter players. However, I struggle with Reacta-Gloss, so I took my Summit peak to 2000 grit-Abralon to start my review. And if you want to talk about being energized, my Summit Peak came alive and performed exceptionally well. I found the Tx-23 Pearl grips in the front part of the lane without sacrificing energy as it progresses through the mid-lane. And if you are a straighter player, you will enjoy how the TX-23 briskly responds to friction without being overly jumpy or squirrelly! And lastly, late at night, when the heads are burnt up, and the backends are full of carry-down and spotty conditions, I loved how the TX-23 Pearl blended the conditions and still provided me with a smooth and predictable motion I could count on all night. So, in conclusion, the Summit Peak is an excellent new release by Storm. With the combination of the Centripetal HD-A.I. core and the TX-23 Pearl Reactive coverstock, the Summit Peak makes an excellent choice for any straighter player like me! And with the correct surface adjustment for your game, you can expect the Summit Peak to deliver results you can count on. So, stop into your local Storm VIP Pro Shop today and have your Summit Peak ready to roll for tonight's league. It is well worth it!

Ball Specs: Storm Summit Peak TX-23 Pearl Reactive A.I. Symmetric Core Finish Reacta Gloss Polished Layout 4.5 x4 with 1.5 Pin Buffer Bowler Specs: Right Hand. PAP 5” Over 1/2 up Rev Rate 300. Tilt 20. Rotation 50. Speed at release 17 Review: The Summit Peak is another very strong pearl ball by Storm. The original Summit was smooth and predictable, the Peak is different. The Summit Peak is very responsive to friction and this creates a very powerful angular shape. This ball hooks almost as much as my Exotic Gem but more than my Zen Gold Label. Even though this is a symmetric core, the ball has a very strong mid lane grab that does not quit. The hit and carry of the Summit Peak are excellent and I am getting extra messengers even with my lower rev rate. The look of this ball gives it great shelf appeal. The Apple Kiwi Pie is a nice scent but is a little faint compared to some of the other scented balls. This ball hooks a lot but does not quit. This ball is already very popular and the results for different styles have been very good. I sometimes feel the Reacta Gloss needs to be adjusted on some balls like the Journey but it is a good choice for the Peak. Of course do not be afraid to modify surface on any ball these days, as the covers are easily tuned to your specific needs. I am really enjoying rolling the Summit Peak and the energized hook motion it provides. Summary: The Summit Peak hooks plenty and has great back end motion. The Balls colors are scent are very appealing. If you need a strong angular pearl, try the Summit Peak.

Summit Peak Cover: TX-23 Pearl Reactive Core: Centripetal HD-AI RG: 2.46 RG Diff: 0.056 My layout: 4.5 x 2.5 The Summit Peak is a Pearl symmetrical ball that I see working best on medium to med-dry conditions. The pearl TX-23 cover is surprisingly clean. It does a great job of getting through early friction without getting off line too quickly. The super low rg core compliments the clean cover very well. Because of the length of the cover, the fast revving core translates to a medium to medium-slow response motion down lane. I have found that the Peak is best when the lanes transition past big and medium solid balls like the Absolute Power or Summit. It allows me to get down the lane easier without being too angular at the end of the oil pattern. Bowler stats: Left handed PAP: 5 x 1/4up Rev rate: 400

The Summit Peak is the newest ball in the Master line, it has the Centripetal HD core that is wrapped around the TX-23 Pearl cover. This ball has an RG of 2.46 and diff of 0.056. I drilled mine 5 x 2 and after throwing this ball for while I was impressed with the motion it makes. It gets through the fronts with easy but still revs ups in the right spot with the lower RG. This is a ball I can see myself using on the fresh and early in blocks when the surface is older, because of the lower RG in the core and it wanting to rev up quick I can’t see myself using it when I have to open my angles up. Tournament players and lower rev players who are looking for a cleaner benchmark ball are going to love the new Summit Peak.
