STORM ROCKET™ A.I.
THUNDER LINE
Street Date: 5/1
Weight Block: Booster™ A.I. Core
Coverstock: A1S™ Pearl Reactive
Finish: Power Edge™
The Rocket A.I. continues
the aggressive expansion of the Thunder line by adding a release that creates
later ball motion to dominate medium-dry conditions. Powering this release is
the Booster A.I. Core, which retains the same inner weight block shape used in
previous Rocket models. The outer core, however, has been enhanced with A.I.
Technology. This dynamic addition not only increases carry percentage on
off-hits, but also lowers the RG and raises the differential, allowing the
Rocket A.I. to better match up with today’s lane patterns. To further support
performance on today’s more demanding oil conditions, the Rocket A.I. is
wrapped in the Storm A1S Pearl Reactive coverstock which is engineered for
exceptional tackiness. Jason Belmonte says, “This core/cover combo delivers a
quick response on the backend when you need to create larger angles and still
have your ball continue through the pins.”
STORM MONSOON™
HOT LINE
Street Date: 5/1
Weight Block: Atmos™ A.I. Core
Coverstock: Reactor™ Solid Reactive
Finish: 2000-grit Abralon®
The Typhoon marked a
successful revival of the iconic Storm Hot line. While it excelled on drier
conditions, it quickly became clear it needed a stronger partner to tackle
heavier oil. Enter the Monsoon — built to handle more volume with confidence.
Featuring a Reactor Solid coverstock finished at 2000-grit Abralon, the Monsoon
creates a wider footprint on the lane, delivering more traction on medium oil
conditions. Inside, the Atmos A.I. Core strikes the ideal balance of length and
torque at the breakpoint, while our A.I. outer core technology unlocks a unique
RG/Diff combination rarely seen in a core of this shape. Add in up to a 5%
higher strike percentage on off-pocket hits, and you’ve got the perfect
companion piece for conquering a wide range of medium oil patterns.
