Sick!

For me, even the XCell likes to get down the lane a little further, which makes it a more versatile option

Much appreciated! Let us know how you like your new Christmas present...

To my(Ben) eye, I'd just keep the Wicked. I liked the look of Joe throwing the Violent, a lot, but there might be a tad more versatility with what one could do surface-wise with the Wicked. Maybe Joe can chime in too, haha

Yeah, the ball is a total monster. I'm going to be trying it on older/high-friction lanes at another center this week to see if its polish is enough to keep it in play. West Seattle Bowl is a fair bit cleaner/newer than a lot of other places

Sick--skid-snap time!

To my(Ben) eye, pin-up could be pretty decent. I enjoyed that core pin-up when I wasn't on staff with Storm... seemed roll great

Yes it would. It’s got some pop but very clean.

On the way!

This coming new year, we're going to go a better job of providing updates from league and tournament usage. Stay tuned!

Thanks!

Gonna be a good one for the bag, for sure

Much appreciated!

I think they are close but would give the nod to the stealth. That cover is a little stronger I think.

Awesome to hear! Definitely an underrated ball this last year

The Lightning flares way less than the HyRoad, and as such it is much smoother down lane, I find

Ok thank you so much I wanted to replace my Hyroad pearl but I don’t know if I want The Road Warrior or Lighting blackout?

Appreciate it--thanks! My Blackout video is up! The ball is absolutely amazing. Might be one of my favorite balls of the last few years. Check the vid out!

Just some random elevator music that I like

Yep! You around these parts?

I had both a Ruby and Summit. Didn’t match up with the Ruby and loved the Summit. Completely different shapes and strengths. Use Summit on fresh or heavier oil, Ruby on burn or dry oil.

I’m a two hander and I did not match up at all with the IQ Tour Ruby. On the other hand I matched up perfectly with my Summit.

@@sk8erpunk1504 I'm also two handed!! Thanks man

I appreciate the comments! The Summit compared much closer to the Heckler as an upper medium ball which is why I grabbed it halfway through the video. I’ve heard only good things about the IQ Ruby, I know a two hander at our center who shot 300 with it recently and loves it. It’s good to have a wide array of options for your arsenal, IQ line is lower to mid performance and Summit line is mid to upper medium but may vary on how you throw the ball.

@@2Hander my rev rate is just under 620 rpm so it gets super skid snappy if the lanes are ULTRA fried. May pick up a tropical storm. Wish someone did a review on the black trop. Storm

Thanks! You know we definitely have to bring them sick vibes

Much appreciated! Hope they all help!

Hahaha

Heck yeah she can!

We tried it once, but we need to revise a better way to do it. Stay tuned! We'll definitely give another go in the near future

Thanks--much appreciated! I haven't thrown the Criterion, as I'm on Storm staff--but, from everything I've seen in others using it here, I'd say the Physix Blackout gets down the lane a little easier than the Criterion, and corners a bit more, too

Much appreciated! Thanks for the support! Let us know if there's anything you'd like us to do

Not a replacement--they can actually go in the same bag, I feel. The S2 gets further down the lane before getting into a roll, and is a lot sharper through the pins

Thanks my guy! Love ya

I'll definitely be drilling up a few others in the near future, and was thinking of doing an Update video on the ball given how much I've been loving it. Perhaps having one with Power Edge would be great to add to that video. Definitely wouldn't put it in HRP territory, but could definitely be akin to Exotic Gem. Stay tuned!

Much appreciated--thanks!

@ Np

Dangggg

Right?

I retired my Proton after the Max came out and bested it, to my eye. But if I ever dig it back out, I'll consider going an all-Physix line comparison, with the OG original, Astro, Infinite and Blackout

Hope you get a Blackout! It's definitely going to be a notable ball these next few months. It rolls just about perfect

Thanks--much appreciated! And yeah, this ball is so good... I can't wait to smash it with it next week

Thanks! And, great questions. The official process per Storm is 500 for 30 seconds all 4 sides, 1000 10 seconds all 4 sides, then a quarter-sized amount of Power Edge for 15 seconds on 2 sides. Then wipe all any excess with cleaner

That’s awesome !!

Yessirrr

I'll definitely keep it in mind for the future. I love both of those balls. DNA was highly underrated, IMO

Origin at box finish is probably the next step down from the S2... but if you wanted a little more separation and versatility in your bag, maybe consider the Road Warrior as that 3rd ball?

@@wsbproshopI have a Road Warrior, but am looking for something for game 3 of league, when there is still some oil on the lanes. I’ve tried the OG Attention Star and Infinite Physix in that slot but have over under issues, so something that can dig in a little more would be better.

Much appreciated!
