Wow, I finally found a ball reviewer who throws the ball like I do. It seems like everyone else throws BIG revs which I don't. And I am also throwing 14 pounds so that seals the deal. I am going to check out all your past vids and of course I have subscribed. Thank you!
They’re painstakingly done manually during video editing using Adobe After Effects. Learned how to do them by watching videos on how to create ball tracers for golf videos. I think they add quite a bit to the video.
Agreed, thanks! I have been using Inshot, and I had not tried using that program. My asking centers around training. I intend to trace my strike roll. Then, use the rinse and repeat method to improve my eye target training. Thanks again!
Great shots. Do you do coaching out there in Nitro? I'd really like to work with someone to cleanup my approach and gain a little more consistency. My net average across the 2 fall leagues and my current summer league is around 220ish in Parkersburg.
The RG of a ball indicates how a bowling ball spins - think of an ice skater with their hands outstretched (High RG) or tucked in closer to their body (Lower RG). The differential is the imbalance between the high and low RGs. The Ion in 14 and 15 pounds have a very similar differential, but the RG is higher on the 14 pound version. That typically means you'll see the 14 pound version go down the lane a little bit further than the 15 pound ball.
@@garybryant19 I don't have any insight into Storm's plans, I typically find out about them the same time you do. Historically speaking, balls that are still selling are not getting discontinued. I know we still sell several Phaze 2s every season, so I would be surprised to see it discontinued. The Ion Pro and the Phaze 2 are definitely different balls. They have similar RGs, but the Phaze 2 has solid coverstock with a much higher differential and is symmetric. The Ion Pro has a pearl cover, lower differential, and is asymmetric. Personally, I think there's plenty of room for both of them in the lineup.
Would the ion pro be a good 2nd ball if I have a lightning blackout. Started to bowl again after 15 year layoff and only have a lightning blackout. League play house shot only.

Great to hear! I’m glad you found me!
I agree. I just finished watching his Reality and Eternity PI comparison video. I'm a Senior Bowler.
Man u are good. Love watching u throw the ball. 😊
Thank you!
I'd Be curious to see this video with the IQ Tour also reviewed. Good Job on the video.
Thank you! Unfortunately, I haven’t picked up an IQ Tour solid since I moved to 14 pounds yet.
Excellent job!
Thank you very much!
How do you make the track line on the lane?

Great video and awesome review! 👍

Phase 2 all day

We've been staying so busy working in the shop, it's been tough to get out to the lanes for much organized coaching sessions.
Great review. New subscriber.
Thanks for the sub!
So the 14lb might hook more or less

Would you recommend this for low rev,low speed bowler
It depends, how low speed and how low revs? What types of balls have you had success with?
@AlmostPerfection Is this the Phaze 2 replacement ball. Is Storm planning on discontinuing the Phaze 2?

Ion pro is a hybrid cover.

The Ion Pro will have less overall hook than the VEBO and a completely different shape, so it would definitely complement the VEBO.
I’m around a 300 rev guy. Curious how fast do u throw ur ball. I’m around 14 mph
I’m usually around 16.5 odd my hand, which would put most balls in the 14.5 to 15 range at the pins, where most scoring systems read the speed.
I'm really enjoying your reviews. Keep up the good work!
Thanks!
