- Disturbed

First Impressions
The Disturbed from Roto Grip is an absolute prime example of control and perfect readability on the lane. Powered by the proven Middle Roll 70 core, this ball offers very balanced, harmonious core dynamics with a 2.50 RG and a 0.043 differential. Combined with the precisely tuned 66MT solid cover, the result is a surface that interacts with the oil in an extremely predictable and consistent manner. The 2000-grit pad finish purposefully ensures that the ball picks up friction early and controls the midlane securely without ever coming across as unpredictable. Even the outward appearance conveys great stability and reliability, qualities that carry over seamlessly into the actual roll through the heads. The overall construction is designed to give the bowler clear feedback about the condition of the lane at all times.
Comparison
Looking at the Disturbed head-to-head with the Storm Phaze II, its much stronger emphasis on control and predictability becomes very clear. The Storm Phaze II does offer a somewhat more angular move off the backend, but it can react too sensitively or overreact on difficult oil patterns. This is exactly where the Disturbed scores, with its steady, smooth and continuous arc toward the pins. When the Phaze II tends to miss the breakpoint, the Disturbed provides the traction in the pocket needed to stay safely on line. It closes the gap between extremely strong balls and weaker models absolutely ideally. If you like the Phaze II but are looking for a calmer, safer option, this is the logical choice.
On the Lanes
On the lane this ball proves to be the perfect companion for medium to heavy oil patterns, especially on typical house shots or demanding sport patterns. It lets you get through the boards safely and develops a strong but wonderfully round hook that leads straight into the pocket. The smooth reaction to the friction on the backend produces outstanding carry, since the ball transfers a great deal of energy into the pins instead of wasting it prematurely through an overly harsh change of direction. Once the transition sets in, the ball can still be used very effectively with small adjustments to the line before a ball change becomes necessary. It is a true benchmark for anyone who wants to build their game methodically and should deliver consistently high scores.
