The Storm Fringe is another one of Storm’s new high performance bowling balls for the 2012 season.
Throw the ball farther out than you’ve ever done before, to the fringe, and watch it come back!
The new Storm Fringe is all about the back-end. The straight pearl blend combined with the factory polished 1500 finish depletes energy at a slower rate, allowing for more entry angle and a wider pocket! Now, who doesn’t want that?!
CATS testing showed an earlier break-point of more than two feet so we know that we achieved our goal. The 4000-grit finish combined with the solid R2S mixture created this enhanced mid-lane, perfect for those with higher ball speed.
The
Storm Fringe gave us a little shorter length of skid through the heads than we expected out of this ball in addition to a shorter and stronger transition to hook in the mid-lane… It also had a longer roll on the back-end than we expected for this type of bowling ball… This ball had a very different reaction than we would have expected from this type of bowling ball… The ball had good pin carry and seemed to work best on medium heavy lane conditions with drier back-ends.. We found this to be a good mid-line bowling ball that fits in a pearl version of the frantic… This was a earlier responding bowling ball than we expected… We felt this to be a very good solid reactive bowling ball that would work well in medium to medium heavy oil volumes with drier back-ends… We used 5 x 3 7/8 x 4 1/4 drilling layout, and the out of box surface finish, and bowled on a 39ft house pattern in testing this ball…
The good part about the Storm Fringe was it was a smooth pearl bowling ball that cold be an option if your solid ball has lost it’s performance or is to strong, basically a good step down from your solid reactive ball… We felt this would be a good ball for medium house patterns or when a your want to ball down on medium patterns… The bad part about Storm Fringe is it will need some dry area on the lane to react as designed…
The New Storm Fringe was a good pearl ball for playing the track area on medium lane conditions… We found it to be very smooth and controllable for a pearl bowling ball… You can get more details about this ball in the links below this post.

The good part about the Storm Manic was it was smooth, controllable and had even transitions… We really enjoyed the fact that we could play inside the oil line with this ball..
