Question:


I have been throwing a Totally Defiant for almost 5 yrs. but it cracked in half after throwing 8 strikes in a row. Now I'm currently interested in the storm Intense. I do enjoy the last second change of the direction of the ball. Is there any changes the Intense has over my very missed totally Defiant?

7/13/2018 - By

Have an answer to this question?

Answer:


There are going to be a couple of differences but the result will be very similar to your Totally Defiant. The Defiant series had a stronger weight block that gave the Totally Defiant an edge but the Storm Intense has a stronger pearl coverstock which even the two bowling balls back out if not give the Intense a slightly stronger reaction since the cover will have a little more influence on the performance than the weight block. If you drill them similar then I think you will like the reaction you get on the new Intense.

Everything is the same between the two bowling balls, except for the finish. The Intense will have a 1500 grit finish and the Virtual Gravity Nano will have a 4000 grit finish, meaning the Virtual Gravity Nano will have longer length.
