My wife got me this ball for Christmas and I have thrown it for 8 games so far in league and it's easily my favorite ball already. I am a 185-190 average bowler and the 8 games with this ball I am averaging 221 so far
Phenomenal video Luis. You keep getting better and better with the camera as well as the content. I think Magic Gem, Virtual Energy Blackout, Journey may be the pieces to add to my bag to round out my arsenal. I think Belmo finished his latest creation with a Chef's kiss
Looks great. Not crazy about Belmo balls per se but the more I see videos on this ball the more I like it and I think it would be a good ball for low rev low speed bowler like myself
Loved Timeless for me it was a quicker down lane motion than the HyRoad and I loved that about it. Never threw Drive, Pro Motion or Trend 2 so outside of videos I have seen I can't really muster an opinion. Got to throw Trend and Fate at two different matchmaker events was a huge fan of the Trend but Fate I loved really felt like a shape I was missing at the time but sadly I lacked the funds to pick it up and now its discontinued so hopefully Journey gives me a chance to fix missing out on the Fate.
Last Friday got to throw a few of Storm balls at a demo day. Big fan on Belmo’s Fate been shooting well with it had a 771 series few weeks ago and 725 this weekend with a 279 game. The Journey didn’t disappoint and was one of my top 3 balls tested. The DNA and my top pick would be the Summit. Between the layouts the new Journey was about two boards weeker than the Fate. More closer to the Exotic Gem as was the DNA. The Summit was a good two boards more aggressive than my Fate and will look to add it to my tournament bag in the near future.
I'm not shocked about the composition of the core and cover of the Journey. It was either this last year or 2 years ago Belmo was loving a shiny Phaze 2. Can we see a comparison of the Journey to a shiny Phaze 2?
Good video. I have not found a Belmo ball I liked. The ProMotion was ok but there are other balls I’d rather use in that bag spot. This ball looks interesting.
11/9/2023 - 33.6k subs! You were at 33.5k on Tuesday. Great pace! Are you thinking of doing something when you get to 35-40k? Like a ball or jersey giveaway? Or just a party.
Luis how are you? This is my first time watching this particular video I heard of the journey before I never knew that it had the TX 16 cover on it, which I think the best cover, which is the phase ii the best overall bowling ball of all time. Question, I think you said in the video it actually replaced the fate. I don’t know if it was you or somebody else was this the one that also replaced the phase 5 because that’s no longer available? If that’s the case, what ball did replace the phase 5?

I'm a bit confused. I have never looked into the numbers of bowling balls. Since u started bowling, back in the early 80s, until just now. You said the 2.52 is on the higher side of RG, but the info I looked up says that RG ranges from 2.46 to 2.8, which makes the 2.52 on the lower end???
I really like the Fate, but it's a tad too clean for me (I could take the polish off but don't need it for league- want it for late in tourneys when I finally start bowling them 😅). This cover should help it pick up a bit better.
@@LuisNapoles I like the format you used on all the other ball reviews. I don't like standing out on the lanes and explaining your reviews. I like how you finished up back at the table to give final thiughts.
Dude is my friend who intentionally bowls next to me so I can film because I’m considerate to other bowlers lol if my yapping is an issue to you then maybe you shouldn’t watch but for some reason you do 😂
@cardinalcopium5088 That "Dude" happens to be his FRIEND .... and he puts him NEXT to him deliberately so as to be CONSIDERATE of the other bowlers .... sort of like a buffer between .... Oh and yes .... are you SURE Cardinal Copium that the LAST half of your moniker isn't "OPIUM" ??? Cause, dude, you must be smokin' it !!!! THINK DUDE !!!!

I like the addition to the 2nd camera. Multiple angles and a different perspective for your videos. Keep it up bro, can't wait to get this Journey.
Thank you so much!

It’s a good one!
Love the new format with the camera angles, really lets us see what's happening at the line and down lane. Good job!!
In want to try and add that more to more video

Wow, thanks! I really appreciate that!
I love the new camera angles! It reminds me of a couple years ago on your channel when you used to be with Motiv. Kind of nostalgic in a way.
Oh nice!
The new format is really good! Combines the best of what you did in the past and what you did more recently
Thanks so much for that!
Looks great. Not crazy about Belmo balls per se but the more I see videos on this ball the more I like it and I think it would be a good ball for low rev low speed bowler like myself
Totally agree
Love the new camera set up!! Keep it up with the great content

Hopefully this’ll be it for you!
Hi, so to get 1 ball for rest of league season with biggest backend would you recommend Sublime or Journey
Well I’ll find out this Friday at a matchmaker. They will have it there. A little excited with the pearl cover stock of the Phaze 2
I hope you love it! Just remember that its not drilled exactly fr you so it will be a little different than when you drill it for yourself
Do you think the journey will be good if I'm a backup ball bowler

Summit is such a sleeper ball !
Just won a ball raffle tonight. Got the Summit on order. Look forward to your ball review.
Great "Journey" tie-in to life in your introduction.
Glad you liked it!

I have something in mind! Let’s get to 50k and we’ll see
@LuisNapoles 50k sounds like a good round number! You will get there on your way to 100k and beyond. Just keep doing what you are doing. 👍

This is my first storm ball. What’s the closest ball in the motiv line
On paper maybe the Supra but even then not really

@@LuisNapoles your welcome

You don’t see things higher than 2.55 really
I want to see this against the Xponent. They look like they fit in similar spots in my bag
Xponent will be WILDLY smoother when compared to Journey
This could be a ball to compliment my xponent and should be a nice step up to my ruby.
Facts on facts!
All the Belmo balls usually look sooo good to me.. but the price tag doesn’t 😭
I know that feeling!
Wait 11 months and you'll be able to get one for like 150 once they discontinue it no matter how good of a ball it is
i save up , $50 a week till i get to the price of the ball. Journey isnt out till the 17th of November. You got time
I really like the Fate, but it's a tad too clean for me (I could take the polish off but don't need it for league- want it for late in tourneys when I finally start bowling them 😅).
This cover should help it pick up a bit better.
Definitely!
Really want to see the journey compared to the Zen and/or zen gold label
That would be dope!
I saw all the Belmo balls never own one I was thinking getting one replacing my axiom pearl because I’m a 2 hander
This is as good a time as ever to get a Belmo ball
@@LuisNapoles already thank you so much
Would journey pair well with phaze 2?
Heck yea!
Is journey better than fate what condition Does the ball Medium or heavy
Both and yea imo its better than Fate
@@LuisNapoles thank you might be my new ball
i loved the promotion
Same!
@@LuisNapoles lol we are in the minority on that ball lol. Most people I know hated it
do u think that it is better than the trend 2?
yes 100%
@@LuisNapoles okay nice! well i love to play left a lot, so should i get a journey over a trend 2?
Compare it to a TNT INFUSED, Looking at getting both.
Def will do!
I've never thrown a Belmo ball, but that may have to change
Nows a good a time as ever!
My Fate is my goat. Yes, I have a Phaze 2. I get more carry from the Fate.
Fate is a great ball!
Good luck tonight!! What bowling shoes u rockin
These are the Dexter c 9 lazers
Should have let Chris throw it to see what he thinks
Check out the video that drops later today je throws the journey 2 times
Not a fan of the new camera angles.
You're the first one that is saying that. What about it do you not like?
@@LuisNapoles Just not a fan of the flipping back and forth of the cameras. Not a fan of the lane level view after the shot. Nothing personal.
Don't like the new format. It's better with the old format.
Which format? And why?
@@LuisNapoles I like the format you used on all the other ball reviews. I don't like standing out on the lanes and explaining your reviews. I like how you finished up back at the table to give final thiughts.
I had the fate but it was to strong for me im slower speed and rev player
Changing the surface will help!
@@LuisNapoles to what 2k 3k?
Where would this fit in my bag I currently have iq tour solid, original zen, and the 900 global xponent
All that is needed is that its a Belmo ball, already have 5 on pre-order 😂
oh gosh! I know that feeling all to well lol
Why other two bowling next to u it’s annoying
Stop copying D Tangs videos.
Please tell me what video I’m copying 😂😂😂
Dude's waiting to bowl and you're on the approach yapping. No consideration.
Dude is my friend who intentionally bowls next to me so I can film because I’m considerate to other bowlers lol if my yapping is an issue to you then maybe you shouldn’t watch but for some reason you do 😂
