I made a mistake. I was not aware this ball was not approved for play yet. I have also posted/advertised this ball way too early on Storm's behalf. I already spoke with them, and they have graciously allowed us to post this video, knowing that we would be skipping a week of content if not. I will bring this to the league president's attention to remedy the situation. There is no malicious intent, just a bit of ignorance and oblivion. Thanks for your continued support!
That was cool of them, honest mistake. Storm seems like a great company to be apart of. Plus the Phaze 5 is just a different color Phaze 4 with 4k fast soooo you could just throw the phaze 4 and say its phase 5. LOL ( ; > D ) Seriously though the Phaze 5 doesn't seem to come off the spot as hard as the Phaze 4. I like my Phaze 4, I dont think they are different enough to warrant a purchase for me. I want to see the reviews on the new belmo ball coming.
I checked the USBC ball approved list and the Phaze 5 was listed today, Sept 20th. What day was this filmed? LUL I'm more surprised at 1:35 you *hit the surface with an Abralon pad right off the bat,* instead of showing off the Reacta Gloss finish :(
Those cinematic slow mo shots are on point, killing it my dude. Definitely enjoyed last week’s amateur night as well, Jesse talking through his shots and adjustments was good.
OMG the slow motion in the middle of the shots is INSANELY FANTASTIC! Kudos to the editor. Jessie, are you doing that? Wow, more professional than the TV broadcasts.
Amateur night last week was awesome. I like the slow motion effect on some of Darren's shots. They look really awesome. Shout out on the Donkey Kong music reference.
Jessie is STEPPIN' UP his game man! Sickest ball reaction Darren has had in the entire league series plus Jessie bringing the cinematic sparkle, honestly thought Darren was gonna shoot 300 this video lol
I'm really enjoying this season with Lance! His energy is contagious. I've been bowling my whole life, but thanks to this series I was finally motivated to drill my first fingertip grip ball and I'm trying to finally join my first league. Really digging the slo-mo shots too Jessie. Keep up the good work guys!
Figured I'd add my input that I just love the DTang content. All y'all together are great, and it is a pure pleasure to see all the sick hits. Keep up the great work!
I'd be interested in seeing Lance throw a new ball as well to see how it reacts between the two of you. Another great week. Best bowling series on YT right now.
I’ve been watching your channel for a few months now and I’ve learned so much. I’m a 2 finger bowler and I am definitely seeing improvements in my game. I have 2 balls now but I definitely want to try out this phase 5 that you’re throwing in this video. I do need another ball
I needs me that Phaze V my good sir. I think I'm finally caught up on watching all your vids. You've given me some good insights on starting to take bowling more serious. thanks
as someone whos working at a bowling alley, how often do the lanes youre playing league at have outtages, if they have any at all. im curious, especially since you said "when the lanes are finally getting too old..."
Lot of other reviews are informative but your vids makes me actually want to buy the ball. Thanks for keeping it real in your vids and also for the honesty on the early vid goof.
Want to thank you for this video because it talked me into getting a phaze 5. I have nothing but great things to say about this ball. Thank you thank you!
Love the video guys questions is you think the phaze 4 and 5 will have the proformations drop off like the phaze 3 as I have the phaze 3 and as it got 30 to 40 games stop reacting and get more turn out of my spare ball then it I have to hit it with 1500 to 600 to get any type of reaction on it qnd bowl was only brought in feb22
I have over 70 games on my Phaze 3 and it's as good as it ever was. I do maintain the surface frequently and it has been resurfaced once and detoxed twice. I do my own ball maintenance.
@@vBlaine I do that to been resurfaced twice now once with polish and once with 4k fast and ball is cleaned after every league st the bowling centre and then at home and with so clean so fresh about hour before bowling still doesn't make much difference and have a friend with almost same span as me.and doesn't do much too maybe just one of the duds
As a beginner bowler who has started bowling pretty regularly. It's cool to see someone with an attitude like Darren who has made it to the pro level and doesn't take it to seriously. Every time I see him bowl he's having fun which is really the main focus after all.
Hello I have been watching your channel for about a month now. I have been looking for a 4th ball to add to my bag love my storm axiom which is my benchmark ball. What ball would you recommend around it.
How long ago was it that you went to Louisville bro my son goes there now give me some info so I can act like I have eyes on him a cool hall or something 🤷🏾♂️
I’m thinking buying this ball, but not really sure if I should add it to my arsenal since I have a dark moss and an infinite physix. Would you recommend it
Question, I saw that you were happy on the right lane (game 3) which forced you to stand in front of the ball return with a shorter approach. Is there a circumstance that you say to yourself, short 3 step approach on right lane is working, try a similar 3 step approach on the open left side from a comparable position? Thx, love the Phaze V
I'm guessing you don't like the phaze 3 darren since you didn't mention it, but I have one, and I like it, but I'm guessing it's not great for the way you throw. Personally, I throw down and in on first arrow.
Hey I’m new to bowling only been doing it for about 1 1/2 to 2 years and really don’t know how to compare balls I was wondering how you would compare phase 5 to phase 2
Haha man that’s because Lance and Darren play 30 boards different so naturally Lance will be in front of his ball track.😢 We appreciate the support! 🙌🏼
#dtang - do you think it would be a good idea for Storm to make a Phaze 6 that would have the tourthane (UC3 coverstock) would it be storms equivalent to the purple hammer.
Darren Tang get this guy some equipment. Surely you've got some storm credits, roto bucks, or global gold that could swing him a Zen and a phaze II or something.
I must say I think this is the best ball review you can make .. by using it in League (just like us other mortals) ... right now I want a Storm Phaze V
Honestly for next season I’d love to see bowl with either lance or Jessie. Jessie has been getting a lot better as a bowler and lance has so much charisma. Both of those guys definitely make your content a lot better
I have Phaze 4 and is more pretty,I know in EEUU you can"t compite with P4 ,in Spain We can compete with P4,I'm thinking in buy rubicon UC 3 and trident Horizon,what you do think about this bals?

Honestly storm should just have you demo/release/showcase EVERYTHING. Your vid should be THEE official premier. Just an opinion from internet land!

Good to see you own this mistake. Added respect.

I second. It’s a nice touch.
My favorite series on YT right now. Darren is a beast!
Also, editing is spot on. Keep up the good work Jessie!
7:05 I do the exact same thing lol, it's the only way I can possibly remember when I start getting left of the dots on the approach.

Jessie is killing it!! I thought I was going to miss him in the league, and I still do, but the editing is on POINT!! Keep up the hard work!!
I really enjoy all the league videos the energy between you and Lance is hysterical. I love the look of the phaze 5 great camera work as well
Love you Lacey boy!! Appreciate you! Great camera and video work as always Jesse!! And awesome bowling Darren! The dream team right here🤙🤙
that slow mo strike at 8:00 was nasty!!!
I’ve seen you throw a ton of different bowling balls on this channel, but this is the by far the best ball reaction I’ve ever seen.
Love u guys league content...I been binge watching video after video...looks like u guys have a blast on the regular...keep up the content!!
12:50 he was just setting up for the spare lol
When is my man Lance going to get some storm equipment? Hook this man up Darren! You're welcome Lance hahaha
Figured I'd add my input that I just love the DTang content. All y'all together are great, and it is a pure pleasure to see all the sick hits. Keep up the great work!
The camera work is getting absolutely insane guys! Loved it keep it up
Darren is in a fantastic mood this vid, and I absolutely love it. Phaze 5 looking fineeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
What’s the name of the music playing at 3:15?
15:02 says oh im not switching balls but then switched during the second frame of the next game
Loving the reaction and motion of the Phaze V. I would love to know how you drilled it.
5 x 4 x 1 3/4
I'd be interested in seeing Lance throw a new ball as well to see how it reacts between the two of you. Another great week. Best bowling series on YT right now.
That Night Road? lol
Good job guys and the more I’m watching these videos the more I realize that I can’t get enough!
Comedy factor is spot on here, had me rollin, speedway shirt...lol. and NUT! do you sell the nut button i need one : )
I’ve been watching your channel for a few months now and I’ve learned so much. I’m a 2 finger bowler and I am definitely seeing improvements in my game. I have 2 balls now but I definitely want to try out this phase 5 that you’re throwing in this video. I do need another ball
Love when Lance does the Curly Shuffle. (The little back hop)
Last week episode was awesome, Lance and Jesse is also an awesome duo.
Lance seems like a good friend and great bowling partner
I needs me that Phaze V my good sir. I think I'm finally caught up on watching all your vids. You've given me some good insights on starting to take bowling more serious. thanks
Great video as always! Keep up the great bowling!
as someone whos working at a bowling alley, how often do the lanes youre playing league at have outtages, if they have any at all. im curious, especially since you said "when the lanes are finally getting too old..."
highest production value bowling channel on the internet
Lot of other reviews are informative but your vids makes me actually want to buy the ball. Thanks for keeping it real in your vids and also for the honesty on the early vid goof.
Had a storm rep come to my bowling center yesterday, got to play several games with the phaze V and it is definitely a great ball!!
Hey Darren tang can u tell me what that is on the back of ur shorts
Would be dope to see Lance throwing new releases. No way in hell average league bowlers are playing that angle 1/2 game 😂. Great bowling Sir!
What kind of ball would you recommend for someone just getting into league?
Amateur Night has to be the title of the videos with Lance and Jesse from now on 😂
Want to thank you for this video because it talked me into getting a phaze 5. I have nothing but great things to say about this ball. Thank you thank you!
What grit did you use to knock the shine off of the ball?
Love the video guys questions is you think the phaze 4 and 5 will have the proformations drop off like the phaze 3 as I have the phaze 3 and as it got 30 to 40 games stop reacting and get more turn out of my spare ball then it I have to hit it with 1500 to 600 to get any type of reaction on it qnd bowl was only brought in feb22

What’s the layout on the ball?
I have to say having lance as your partner makes these league videos 10 times better.
Lance is awesome! He's amazing content.
ahaha sit jesse
When that Phaze II flashed down the lane, I though it was grey and red and was like "Why is Darren throwing an Altered Reality?"
How long ago was it that you went to Louisville bro my son goes there now give me some info so I can act like I have eyes on him a cool hall or something 🤷🏾♂️

What pad did you rub the Phaze V with?
Watching this gets me pumped up for league on Thursday.
17:32 of course Lance is gonna convert a 6-9 leave.
I mean c'mon ;)
Vitamin DTang what a video!! So question... phase 2 or Phase 5?
Both
@@joshg218 that is the correct answer
I'm guessing you don't like the phaze 3 darren since you didn't mention it, but I have one, and I like it, but I'm guessing it's not great for the way you throw. Personally, I throw down and in on first arrow.
Hey Darren what’s your thought about the Phaze 5 I still have my Phaze 4 in drill
Hey I’m new to bowling only been doing it for about 1 1/2 to 2 years and really don’t know how to compare balls I was wondering how you would compare phase 5 to phase 2
Pearl version
Nice run in the 2nd game. how do you have that phaze 5 drilled.
Wondering where this sits in terms of strength from storm... I have a dark code but I wonder how this would look on a more burned late tournament look
It's same as phase 4 exactly specs but rolls a little stronger than a 4
What is your opinion on the Ghost Widow Pearl? For an average bowler getting their first ball would you advise pin up or pin down ?
Are they in a sport pattern league or is this ths? Didn't think those angles were possible on THS without 2 handing.
Did that guy you were bowling against get his 300 or did I miss something
Mr Darren 😂 I was wondering way you sanded your ball before throwing it
Dude Jesse went hard on this one 😮
What’s the rev rate when you loft the cap? Lol that’s nasty
Hey Darren, my Phaze 2 is getting old and I'm between a Phaze 5 or just a new Phaze 2. What do you think??
Depends, if you don’t have a replacement in your bag already for the phaze 2 then i would drill another, if not i’d get the phaze 5
do you think usbc will ban the phase v
No
@@DarrenTang thank you, and was phase 4 banned because it was too soft?
This editing is outrageously good. 🤘
YO I was there for a Tournament and was shooting the same place you were crushing it with. Good stuff man! Keep up the Sloppies HAHA!
Love the league 😉 lance is so great but I can't see his ball 🤣 camera man. 😂 You guys all rock even camera man
Haha man that’s because Lance and Darren play 30 boards different so naturally Lance will be in front of his ball track.😢 We appreciate the support! 🙌🏼
That phaze 5 looks so good with your throw style everytime it hits the dry I just wanna say skkkrrrt out loud
man this is so satisfying to watch
why not the phaze iii?
What ball did lance switch to ?
What's the scent?
12:55 bad rack....
Darren does you or your brother offer coaching
Yes
What happened to phase 1 and 3?
Same thing that happened to the 5, discontinued. It's funny that they still make the 2 tho.
Is the Phaze V different than Phaze 4 because of the reacta gloss finish? BTW, love the slow motion shots...
The finish is supposedly the only thing different. Same core, same Diff, same RG.
production value is unmatched, loved the vid. hope you didn’t get in too much trouble
16:32 The Best Sequence on TH-cam. Don't @Me.
What weight balls do you throw? @DarrenTang
15
What were the scores for game two?
That faze 5 got some power cant wait for it to come out. I need to buy one for league night
Are the lanes that dry that you have to play that deep?
Yes
What ball would you say is closed to the phase 2
Phaze 2
#dtang - do you think it would be a good idea for Storm to make a Phaze 6 that would have the tourthane (UC3 coverstock) would it be storms equivalent to the purple hammer.
Have you ever switched out of a ball and couldn’t find the spot with a different ball, then go back to the first one?
I must've watched this video at least 10 times now because I own this ball and now I also own a nut button. Let's go Darren, Lance and Jessie!
did he not split the 8-9 at 5:00
Dude that ball is so smooth and strong that’s crazy. Hot take shit looks as good as the phaze 2
The handshake!!! 😂👌
Where can I buy a nut button
Amazon
Darren Tang get this guy some equipment. Surely you've got some storm credits, roto bucks, or global gold that could swing him a Zen and a phaze II or something.
I must say I think this is the best ball review you can make .. by using it in League (just like us other mortals) ... right now I want a Storm Phaze V
Nice... Love it how to bowl.. this ball unreleased yet.. but a lot potential.. love that I can get a ball from u guys..
Is it a pearl?
Honestly for next season I’d love to see bowl with either lance or Jessie. Jessie has been getting a lot better as a bowler and lance has so much charisma. Both of those guys definitely make your content a lot better
Symmetric or asymmetric?
I have Phaze 4 and is more pretty,I know in EEUU you can"t compite with P4 ,in Spain We can compete with P4,I'm thinking in buy rubicon UC 3 and trident Horizon,what you do think about this bals?
