Michael Tang did a video that demonstrates all sorts of styles and the ball looked good with most of them. Even dumping the ball at 13-14 mph with 225 rev rate and a wrist brace.
I think this will be a good ball. Looks like it has a really nice shape. That said, here comes Storm again with "the greatest ball ever" and "house shot killer" hype. Every ball they release is the next greatest thing EVER. It's getting a little tiresome, yet here i am....still watching these vids 😂
@ i think the rev and speed are from his regular recorded revs and speed and not from each throw, its virtually impossible to throw the exact same revs and speed every single shot
@OniSiM- Exactly this! Even the best bowlers don't 100% replicate every single shot. They do get close though. I remember on one telecast they showed Belmonte's stats for every throw as far as speed, rev rate, and break point and it was scary how accurate he was. Proves it takes more than rev rate to be successful on the tour. Gotta be consistent.
I'm not surprised your pin down is more angular, if there is enough friction down lane it will be more angular because its response to friction is slower so maintains more energy throughout the front part of the lane, as the Pin up response is faster so it is trying to respond to the lane earlier. Pin down layouts I think confuse people because they don't realize what down lane friction can do to them. Awesome video as always! :)
its the oil absorbed into the wood/synthetics, the ball hitting the lane makes it warp slightly causing light bounces to warp greatly, it feels smooth to the touch though and wont effect how the ball moves, at least noticably. similair to how when people try to get bumps and dents out of a car, you cant feel it but you can see it if you shine a light at it.
I’m a lefty two hander. I bowl maybe like 3 times a year but I just got a used ball drilled for a lefty for $15! Been loving watching your league videos especially when you’re throwing with 2 hands. Keep up the good work!
Darren go back and look at your video. You started out by saying that you have the Pin Down 5x5x4.75 in your hand but the layout that was shown was your Pin Up 5x5x2.5 and then when you put the Pin Up ball in your hand they showed the Pin Down layout. But I love the Ball and what the core and cover stock does together, especially on house shots.
If it’s a high performance ball and the pin is on left side of your grip, it might be drilled for a left hander. If it’s a plastic ball or one with no weight block, then the pin location doesn’t matter.
I can’t do pearls man. I struggle so much with pearls. 450 ish rev rate plus 18mph. If I miss in it just skates, if I miss out alot of them wanna go face . I stick to my solids. I have one hybrid that I use when the lanes are torched. Good ole scorpion low flare.
I think this ball will get in quite a bit of tournament play. Did anyone else notice from the foul line to the arrows looks like the boards are uphill and falls back downhill after arrows... I know it probably isnt but it sure does look like it. Even looks like the ball goes up and back down.. HAHA!
I would like to see the foot measurement for your break point, i.e. how far down the lane your ball is when it hits its break point. Thanks for the videos!
idk why i had a urge to comment this and if its possible try to brunsisk hero bc i have one and id like to see you bowl with a 12 year old bowling ball lol
OMG another killer ball. This sport is out of control. Need softer kickbacks and heavier pins to get some intergrity back into the game. Oh, don't forget that those two handers heaving the ball down the lane, well, there scores do not count!
Seems a good ball indeed .... i`m a new watcher of your videos and started to pick up bowling again, so now is the question for me what should be a good starter ball for me i`m 56 years of age and wil be 57 nxt saturday... i throwed my first ball with rev`s about a week ago after a month and did throw my highest score so far 189 without handicap 🙂... Ok wel back to the point got distracted there , but yeah which ball 🎳 would you recommend for an old geezer like me
Ball looks great. But am I the only one who's eyes were playing tricks on them? The optical illusion made the lane look like it went up towards the arrows, down hill just until the pins and then back up...that was messing with my eyes on every lane level video shot.
House shot killer for the 1% of league bowlers that actually roll a ball and not toss or throw it
Real tho
Michael Tang did a video that demonstrates all sorts of styles and the ball looked good with most of them. Even dumping the ball at 13-14 mph with 225 rev rate and a wrist brace.
😂😂😂😂
Like so real. I am thinking of getting one with my recent tournament winnings.
Vast majority of the league I’m in rolls the ball
Lane looks like a rollercoaster
Holy topography, his equinox was going over a speed bump
i noticed that too. thats vegas for ya
I think this will be a good ball. Looks like it has a really nice shape.
That said, here comes Storm again with "the greatest ball ever" and "house shot killer" hype. Every ball they release is the next greatest thing EVER. It's getting a little tiresome, yet here i am....still watching these vids 😂
11:20 idk why this made me laugh lmao his grunt replayed
😂 I liked how he said he's going to rev it real good... proceeds to throw exactly the same rev rate
@ i think the rev and speed are from his regular recorded revs and speed and not from each throw, its virtually impossible to throw the exact same revs and speed every single shot
@OniSiM- Exactly this! Even the best bowlers don't 100% replicate every single shot. They do get close though.

Finally a 1-hand bowling video
has the best looking 1 handed release ever! the roll and form is amazing! and you're fast ball has improved!
It's good, but I'm taking EJ and Mikey Tang
Prather.
Mitch Hupe
It looks nice but definitely not the best😅
@BillyDaGoat1017 thats my goat, he signed one of my jerseys when my parents met him in Florida.
You threw the ball so well in this video, you could have struck with anything. Keep it up!
A1 Steak Sauce cover is about right... this ball is good on everythang! It is roll-tastic!!!
Give me Country Bob's sauce instead.
Brand new ball, Brand new technique!
i just wanted to say i want to grow up and be a bowler as great as you some day, I'm 15 and my average is 190.
Great vid as usual. Lane 2 looks like it has some topography issues.
OK it wasn't just me. Lane looks like a roller-coaster.
I'm not surprised your pin down is more angular, if there is enough friction down lane it will be more angular because its response to friction is slower so maintains more energy throughout the front part of the lane, as the Pin up response is faster so it is trying to respond to the lane earlier. Pin down layouts I think confuse people because they don't realize what down lane friction can do to them. Awesome video as always! :)
00:14 is it an optical illusion or goes the land up and down as hell?
Lanes are old asf lol
its the oil absorbed into the wood/synthetics, the ball hitting the lane makes it warp slightly causing light bounces to warp greatly, it feels smooth to the touch though and wont effect how the ball moves, at least noticably. similair to how when people try to get bumps and dents out of a car, you cant feel it but you can see it if you shine a light at it.
That beat drop in the beginning went crazy
im to lazy to go to the site, lol. what is the cover on this? is it a hybrid, a polished solid, or pearl?
pearl
Alright, TV bowling just slayed a review on this! But the rev meter and the style is always 👀thanks for killer content!!
I’m a lefty two hander. I bowl maybe like 3 times a year but I just got a used ball drilled for a lefty for $15! Been loving watching your league videos especially when you’re throwing with 2 hands. Keep up the good work!
Darren go back and look at your video. You started out by saying that you have the Pin Down 5x5x4.75 in your hand but the layout that was shown was your Pin Up 5x5x2.5 and then when you put the Pin Up ball in your hand they showed the Pin Down layout. But I love the Ball and what the core and cover stock does together, especially on house shots.
Ok what ball would you say is better this one that your throwing or zen25.
For anyone wondering about the soundtrack used for this video because RATJAM:
Diego Costa - Synesthesia
"Steak Sauce Cover and a Pokemon Core." I'm dying over here...😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣
Darren rolls the ball so nice. I'm trying to get my shot to look like this
Yes, I just ordered mine. Can’t wait to bowl with it.
Editor did it again 2:35 that’s the pin down one not the pin up one.
I'm feeling old school Paradigm vibes with this ball with how it looks
did gold coast get twister pins?
you know what never mind i realized he said it at the end
2 handed Darren on Tour in 2025?...
Nothing to lose may as well try it US Open great time to start!
Solarian is closer to one of the alien races in the Mass Effect Universe than it is to a pokemon.
Dammit! I literally just got a new ball and then I see this....I want the equinox now ☠️🤣 my wallet is crying
That ball looks amazing
Can it be used by a lower speed, lower rev senior bowler?
Go watch his brothers review on TV bowling supply's channel, he throws the ball with 8 different styles, it's absolutely amazing
could anyone tell me what does the pin mean if its on the left side of the bowling ball?
If it’s a high performance ball and the pin is on left side of your grip, it might be drilled for a left hander. If it’s a plastic ball or one with no weight block, then the pin location doesn’t matter.
Shout out to Jessie you have the best ball reviews out!!
A1-Sauce... Makes sense it sucks up oil! Haha
Just another ball added to my list of balls in consideration for my next ball
Vitamin DTang is as cool as the other side of the pillow
Just got a black widow mania and it’s so good I think I’m in love
My rev rate grew watching this 😳
What weight ball do you throw
Would you go anything below a 14
How crap that lane is messed up. It literally goes downhill from the arrows to the pins.
That ball is so good it hooks while traveling downhill
Was Mikey’s “ball rep” impersonation from his Equinox video a Darren tease? 😂
Lance needs one!
I can’t do pearls man. I struggle so much with pearls.
450 ish rev rate plus 18mph. If I miss in it just skates, if I miss out alot of them wanna go face .
I stick to my solids. I have one hybrid that I use when the lanes are torched. Good ole scorpion low flare.

I would like to see the foot measurement for your break point, i.e. how far down the lane your ball is when it hits its break point. Thanks for the videos!
We need to see what Darren’s bag is looking like in 2025 right now
Anyone have a thought how this would compare to the infinite physix?
Who edits your videos?
6:00 is actually the pin down ball
Darren can you please tell me what you get at the barber?
I don't know man. I think you should come to Madrid, Spain. And show mem not sure if it is going to fit my two hand style
How about against the harsh pearl. Great video
This ball does look fantastic though
Holy topography! Lane looks like a roller coaster 🎢
That ball looks tuff
Does the lane look like it dips for anyone else?
FREE REVS FOR ALL
What weight ball are you using? Thank you.
idk why i had a urge to comment this and if its possible try to brunsisk hero bc i have one and id like to see you bowl with a 12 year old bowling ball lol
He cant throw brunswick
that bowling balls looks like we're rolling Earth itself on the lanes lol are we still alive?
Cant wait to get my hands on this ball
$199 for a house shot killer. Nice marketing storm😂
So one of my favorite balls is the UC2, How would this compare?
An asymmetric ball named Equinox? Nice.
Am i tripping or does the lane look wobbly and uneven when I eye level going down lane
Bro revd it so hard he left the TV Bowling Supply special
OMG another killer ball. This sport is out of control. Need softer kickbacks and heavier pins to get some intergrity back into the game. Oh, don't forget that those two handers heaving the ball down the lane, well, there scores do not count!
How does it compare to the School of Hard Nox? Bowl well.
Why does the lane look like that
900 Global made an Equilibrium a few years back lol
One of the best bowling ball review ever 👏 👏👏 !!! I will get one, Thanks Darren
Is this a ball for a bowler that bowls with 13 mph and throws it two hands?
Seems a good ball indeed .... i`m a new watcher of your videos and started to pick up bowling again, so now is the question for me what should be a good starter ball for me i`m 56 years of age and wil be 57 nxt saturday... i throwed my first ball with rev`s about a week ago after a month and did throw my highest score so far 189 without handicap 🙂... Ok wel back to the point got distracted there , but yeah which ball 🎳 would you recommend for an old geezer like me
Why do companys make balls that absorb more oil faster, wont that affect its performance quicker
How does this comparison to ion pro
The ball looks nice
Why aren't you in Delaware with all the other pba bowlers or are you?
He most likely is, probably recorded it before he went and just published it.
He's there this was obviously filmed before Tour started.
Cool video talk tech bowling ball storm Darren tang
That's the ball I want.
Killin' it.
What does 5 x 5 x 2.5 mean?
Wow how can Darren bowl every shot at 16.8 and 447 rpms?
Average stat maybe?
Hi Darren my Birthday is is February th 19th I am Turnning 45 1:46
Nice ball 🤙
With all these different balls that you throw, I don’t see a difference in the ball motion and path…
Quit using your damn thumb Darren. You roll logs 🪵 with 2 hands. LOL like he’s gonna read this anyways!😂
So even when you say you're slowing the ball down it's still coming up 16.8
Robin morrison from South African Darren bowling balls hi Jesse Jana hi Lauren 🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🙏🙏🙏👌👌👌🎳🎳🎳🎳🇿🇦👌✝️
editor messed up tho darren.....theres no way every single shot was 16.8 mph every time
What's your PAP when two-handed?
Grunting when releasing the ball adds 20-25 RPM, everybody knows the rules!
Bro bought the rav DLC lol
WOW this ball leaves no 10 or 7 pin on the deck.
Lane needs to be replaced/checked because that is horrible. Looks like a wavy road
Could you bowl a 292 tho? Impossible.
It's nice to see every shot but it says your speed is 16.8 on every single shot
Ball looks great. But am I the only one who's eyes were playing tricks on them? The optical illusion made the lane look like it went up towards the arrows, down hill just until the pins and then back up...that was messing with my eyes on every lane level video shot.
Is there a prize for first
yeah yeah like always there is a new ball you have to promote it, sorry, no, I don't like this
Does it smell like steak?!?!
Can I get some likes on this comment for our boy Lance to get one of these?
