Storm Tropical Surge Pearl Pink/Purple
The Storm Tropical bowling ball legacy continues with the Surge core making a great bowling ball for entry level and casual league bowlers. The bright fun colors and unique fragrances make these fun balls appealing to bowlers of every skill level. Each ball features the Reactor Pearl Reactive coverstock that glides through the front of the lane, reacts down-lane, and creates optimum pin carry. The Surge core has a higher differential which brings dependability and a little more hook at the backend.

Not what I ordered!!
Do not purchase this ball!! It looks nothing like the picture above. At all. Highly disappointed and even more disappointed that I have to spend $11 to send a ball back that doesn't look like the one I ordered. I am very disappointed in Bowling.com and they have lost a customer.

Question:
How does this ball compared to the storm tropical storm? Would it be better or worse for a beginning straight bowler?
10/1/2019 - By LouiseHave an answer to this question?
Answer:
This is very comparable to a Storm Tropical and there would not be much difference in the performance. Both are designed to have a little hook potential so if you wanted to get a ball for bowling straight you could get the Ice Storm or one of the Storm Mix balls and they would be better for straight bowling.

Question:
I want the ball to weigh ten lbs when drilled so should i order 10bl ball
10/2/2019 - By StellaHave an answer to this question?
Answer:
Usually the ball will come a couple of ounces over the weight selected but if you wanted to be sure you get the ball right at 10lbs after you drill the ball then you can request for the exact weight on the order. Either enter in the specs box or on the customer comments box on the final review page that you want a 10lb 2oz - 10lb-3oz ball.

Question:
I am 82 what kind of ball do I need
10/9/2019 - By DeeHave an answer to this question?
Answer:
You would probably need a ball that gets down the lane well before hooking so the ball does not hook too early. Most pearl bowling balls have good length so this is a good option. You also want to make sure the ball is designed to work in the same lane conditions that you bowl in most of the time. This ball was for medium to lighter oil.

The balls do not start out drilled. We do offer drilling for some bowling balls for an added fee but you may decline this if you do not want drilling added.

Question:
I’m hesitant to buy this ball because of the fragrance. How strong is it. Would the people I’m bowling with notice the fragrance or just me when I’m bowling?
1/23/2020 - By KathyHave an answer to this question?
Answer:
The fragrance can be a little strong at first when the ball is brand new. We have had some people say that other people around them can smell the fragrance but after you bowl some with the ball it will start to fade down and not be as strong.
