Virtual Energy Blackout: A Strong and Angular Asymmetrical Bowling Ball
The Virtual Energy Blackout is a new high-performance bowling ball from Storm that is designed for bowlers who want a strong and angular reaction on the lanes. The ball features the Shape Lock HD core, which is the same core used in the popular Virtual Gravity Nano. This core is known for its high RG and high differential, which gives the ball a strong and continuous motion. The Blackout is finished with the R2X Pearl Reactive coverstock and comes with a Reacta Gloss finish. This coverstock and finish combination provides a strong and angular reaction, making it ideal for medium to heavy oil conditions.
In the video, Stu tests the Virtual Energy Blackout on a broken-down lane pattern and is impressed with its performance. He notes that the ball flares a ton and is easy to get down the lane. He also likes how the ball recovers from the dry and doesn’t want to go sideways off of it. B Stu believes that the Virtual Energy Blackout will be a great ball for bowlers who are looking for a ball to transition to after their stronger asymmetrical balls start to hook too early. He thinks that the ball will be especially effective on lanes that have a lot of oil in the middle.
Stu compares the Virtual Energy Blackout to the Storm Absolute, which is a similar ball that features the R2S Deep Hybrid coverstock. He finds that the Blackout is a step up from the Absolute in terms of strength and angularity. He notes that the Blackout holds the energy better and comes off the dry harder than the Absolute. B Stu believes that the Blackout is a more versatile ball than the Absolute and will be a great option for bowlers of all skill levels.
Storm Virtual Energy Blackout Bowling Ball
The Virtual Energy Blackout builds on an already concrete foundation created by the Shape-Lock HD Core. But now, and sleeker than ever, the Blackout has taken the reigns with a tour-inspired 1-tone design. The shape you didn’t know you needed until it was gone is back!
DEFINED ENERGY
This shape can power through just about anything. “HD” is short for high density, which lowers the RG and raises the differential of the weight block. A higher differential translates to more flare potential, so every time the ball makes a rotation it exposes a fresh portion of coverstock material to the oil.
BREAKTHROUGH BEGINS
Traditionally, the term “hybrid” suggests that both solid and pearl components coexist within a coverstock. We saw a better way for hybrids and took it. When we joined R2S™ with NeX™ in the lab, the results exceeded our expectations. In our testing, we discovered that the NeX foundation produced a similar backend and entry angle numbers because the chemical porosity of R2S is slightly more compact than NeX. We left nothing to chance with this one. Thus, ReX a.k.a. “Reactor Extreme” was born.
