Michael Tang did a video that demonstrates all sorts of styles and the ball looked good with most of them. Even dumping the ball at 13-14 mph with 225 rev rate and a wrist brace.
I think this will be a good ball. Looks like it has a really nice shape. That said, here comes Storm again with "the greatest ball ever" and "house shot killer" hype. Every ball they release is the next greatest thing EVER. It's getting a little tiresome, yet here i am....still watching these vids 😂
its the oil absorbed into the wood/synthetics, the ball hitting the lane makes it warp slightly causing light bounces to warp greatly, it feels smooth to the touch though and wont effect how the ball moves, at least noticably. similair to how when people try to get bumps and dents out of a car, you cant feel it but you can see it if you shine a light at it.
Darren go back and look at your video. You started out by saying that you have the Pin Down 5x5x4.75 in your hand but the layout that was shown was your Pin Up 5x5x2.5 and then when you put the Pin Up ball in your hand they showed the Pin Down layout. But I love the Ball and what the core and cover stock does together, especially on house shots.
I’m a lefty two hander. I bowl maybe like 3 times a year but I just got a used ball drilled for a lefty for $15! Been loving watching your league videos especially when you’re throwing with 2 hands. Keep up the good work!
@ i think the rev and speed are from his regular recorded revs and speed and not from each throw, its virtually impossible to throw the exact same revs and speed every single shot
If it’s a high performance ball and the pin is on left side of your grip, it might be drilled for a left hander. If it’s a plastic ball or one with no weight block, then the pin location doesn’t matter.
I would like to see the foot measurement for your break point, i.e. how far down the lane your ball is when it hits its break point. Thanks for the videos!
I can’t do pearls man. I struggle so much with pearls. 450 ish rev rate plus 18mph. If I miss in it just skates, if I miss out alot of them wanna go face . I stick to my solids. I have one hybrid that I use when the lanes are torched. Good ole scorpion low flare.
I think this ball will get in quite a bit of tournament play. Did anyone else notice from the foul line to the arrows looks like the boards are uphill and falls back downhill after arrows... I know it probably isnt but it sure does look like it. Even looks like the ball goes up and back down.. HAHA!
idk why i had a urge to comment this and if its possible try to brunsisk hero bc i have one and id like to see you bowl with a 12 year old bowling ball lol
OMG another killer ball. This sport is out of control. Need softer kickbacks and heavier pins to get some intergrity back into the game. Oh, don't forget that those two handers heaving the ball down the lane, well, there scores do not count!
Ball looks great. But am I the only one who's eyes were playing tricks on them? The optical illusion made the lane look like it went up towards the arrows, down hill just until the pins and then back up...that was messing with my eyes on every lane level video shot.
It sucks that you're a staffer. I'd love to see reviews from brands other than SPI. And to be honest, I can't remember the last time you didn't like an SPI ball you reviewed. These are starting to feel a bit like commercials.
House shot killer for the 1% of league bowlers that actually roll a ball and not toss or throw it
Real tho

😂😂😂😂
Like so real. I am thinking of getting one with my recent tournament winnings.
Lane looks like a rollercoaster
Holy topography, his equinox was going over a speed bump
i noticed that too. thats vegas for ya

00:14 is it an optical illusion or goes the land up and down as hell?
Lanes are old asf lol

A1 Steak Sauce cover is about right... this ball is good on everythang! It is roll-tastic!!!
Give me Country Bob's sauce instead.
Alright, TV bowling just slayed a review on this! But the rev meter and the style is always 👀thanks for killer content!!
Finally a 1-hand bowling video
Ok what ball would you say is better this one that your throwing or zen25.
Darren go back and look at your video. You started out by saying that you have the Pin Down 5x5x4.75 in your hand but the layout that was shown was your Pin Up 5x5x2.5 and then when you put the Pin Up ball in your hand they showed the Pin Down layout.

has the best looking 1 handed release ever! the roll and form is amazing! and you're fast ball has improved!
It's good, but I'm taking EJ and Mikey Tang
Prather.
Mitch Hupe
It looks nice but definitely not the best😅
@BillyDaGoat1017 thats my goat, he signed one of my jerseys when my parents met him in Florida.
I’m a lefty two hander. I bowl maybe like 3 times a year but I just got a used ball drilled for a lefty for $15! Been loving watching your league videos especially when you’re throwing with 2 hands. Keep up the good work!
Great vid as usual. Lane 2 looks like it has some topography issues.
OK it wasn't just me. Lane looks like a roller-coaster.
11:20 idk why this made me laugh lmao his grunt replayed
😂 I liked how he said he's going to rev it real good... proceeds to throw exactly the same rev rate
@ i think the rev and speed are from his regular recorded revs and speed and not from each throw, its virtually impossible to throw the exact same revs and speed every single shot
"Steak Sauce Cover and a Pokemon Core." I'm dying over here...😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣
You threw the ball so well in this video, you could have struck with anything. Keep it up!
Brand new ball, Brand new technique!
did gold coast get twister pins?
you know what never mind i realized he said it at the end
Yes, I just ordered mine. Can’t wait to bowl with it.
Anyone have a thought how this would compare to the infinite physix?
Darren can you please tell me what you get at the barber?
2 handed Darren on Tour in 2025?...
Nothing to lose may as well try it US Open great time to start!
Does the lane look like it dips for anyone else?
For the tour, please use both two and one handed!! Use either when you need to make the switch during the block...
Darren rolls the ball so nice. I'm trying to get my shot to look like this
could anyone tell me what does the pin mean if its on the left side of the bowling ball?
If it’s a high performance ball and the pin is on left side of your grip, it might be drilled for a left hander. If it’s a plastic ball or one with no weight block, then the pin location doesn’t matter.
How does this comparison to ion pro
I would like to see the foot measurement for your break point, i.e. how far down the lane your ball is when it hits its break point. Thanks for the videos!
That ball looks amazing
A1-Sauce... Makes sense it sucks up oil! Haha
For anyone wondering about the soundtrack used for this video because RATJAM:
Diego Costa - Synesthesia
Dammit! I literally just got a new ball and then I see this....I want the equinox now ☠️🤣 my wallet is crying
What's your PAP when two-handed?
Shout out to Jessie you have the best ball reviews out!!
Editor did it again 2:35 that’s the pin down one not the pin up one.
That beat drop in the beginning went crazy
I don't know man. I think you should come to Madrid, Spain. And show mem not sure if it is going to fit my two hand style
im to lazy to go to the site, lol. what is the cover on this? is it a hybrid, a polished solid, or pearl?
i just wanted to say i want to grow up and be a bowler as great as you some day, I'm 15 and my average is 190.
I can’t do pearls man. I struggle so much with pearls.
450 ish rev rate plus 18mph. If I miss in it just skates, if I miss out alot of them wanna go face .
I stick to my solids. I have one hybrid that I use when the lanes are torched. Good ole scorpion low flare.
Why does the lane look like that
Am i tripping or does the lane look wobbly and uneven when I eye level going down lane
My rev rate grew watching this 😳
We need to see what Darren’s bag is looking like in 2025 right now
I'm feeling old school Paradigm vibes with this ball with how it looks
Just got a black widow mania and it’s so good I think I’m in love
Was Mikey’s “ball rep” impersonation from his Equinox video a Darren tease? 😂
I think this ball will get in quite a bit of tournament play. Did anyone else notice from the foul line to the arrows looks like the boards are uphill and falls back downhill after arrows... I know it probably isnt but it sure does look like it. Even looks like the ball goes up and back down.. HAHA!
How crap that lane is messed up. It literally goes downhill from the arrows to the pins.
That ball is so good it hooks while traveling downhill
What weight ball do you throw
Would you go anything below a 14
Can it be used by a lower speed, lower rev senior bowler?
Go watch his brothers review on TV bowling supply's channel, he throws the ball with 8 different styles, it's absolutely amazing
Cool video talk tech bowling ball storm Darren tang
How does it compare to the School of Hard Nox? Bowl well.
Is this a ball for a bowler that bowls with 13 mph and throws it two hands?
Nice ball 🤙
Solarian is closer to one of the alien races in the Mass Effect Universe than it is to a pokemon.
Just another ball added to my list of balls in consideration for my next ball
How about against the harsh pearl. Great video
This ball does look fantastic though
An asymmetric ball named Equinox? Nice.
idk why i had a urge to comment this and if its possible try to brunsisk hero bc i have one and id like to see you bowl with a 12 year old bowling ball lol
He cant throw brunswick
Lance needs one!
So one of my favorite balls is the UC2, How would this compare?
That ball looks tuff
900 Global made an Equilibrium a few years back lol
The ball looks nice
FREE REVS FOR ALL
OMG another killer ball. This sport is out of control. Need softer kickbacks and heavier pins to get some intergrity back into the game. Oh, don't forget that those two handers heaving the ball down the lane, well, there scores do not count!
Why do companys make balls that absorb more oil faster, wont that affect its performance quicker
that bowling balls looks like we're rolling Earth itself on the lanes lol are we still alive?
With all these different balls that you throw, I don’t see a difference in the ball motion and path…
editor messed up tho darren.....theres no way every single shot was 16.8 mph every time
Why aren't you in Delaware with all the other pba bowlers or are you?
He most likely is, probably recorded it before he went and just published it.
He's there this was obviously filmed before Tour started.
$199 for a house shot killer. Nice marketing storm😂
Hi Darren my Birthday is is February th 19th I am Turnning 45 1:46
Wow how can Darren bowl every shot at 16.8 and 447 rpms?
Average stat maybe?
Bro bought the rav DLC lol
YO
Lane needs to be replaced/checked because that is horrible. Looks like a wavy road
Is there a prize for first
Ball looks great. But am I the only one who's eyes were playing tricks on them? The optical illusion made the lane look like it went up towards the arrows, down hill just until the pins and then back up...that was messing with my eyes on every lane level video shot.
WOW this ball leaves no 10 or 7 pin on the deck.
