Storm Rocket Ship Bowling Ball

Discontinued

Players seeking exceptional length and playability from their strike ball will find the Rocket Ship to go longer and more predictably than what they have in their bag today. The well-known R2S solid cover wraps this ball, but with an all-new surface prep that has never been used before: 3000-grit Sheen. This ensures an even, controllable, forgiving reaction for whomever rolls it. And with the Booster core fueling the Rocket Ship, this could very well be the benchmark ball bowlers have sought after for years.

Factory Finish

3000 Sheen

R2S Solid Coverstock

Type

Solid Reactive

R2S is synonymous with some of the most successful balls in recent history like the Hy-Road, Frantic, and the IQ Tour. It is renowned for clearing the front part of the lane with an unprecedented movement on the backend. The consistency of this shell through the heads is something to be marveled at.

Booster Core

Equipped with a mid-range RG and moderate differential value, the Booster Core offers excellent value for a mid-line ball. Because of its long and continuous motion, the Booster Core has been sought after by bowlers of all styles. Should this amount of hook be available at this price? We think so.
