- Tropical Breeze Solid Black / Teal

First Impressions
The Tropical Breeze Solid Black / Teal from Storm is an absolute prime example of control and perfect readability on the lane. Powered by the proven Camber core, this ball offers very balanced and harmonious core dynamics with a 2.57 RG and a 0.009 differential. Combined with the precisely tuned Reactor solid cover, the result is a surface that interacts with the oil extremely predictably and consistently. The 1500-grit polished finish purposefully ensures that the ball picks up friction early and controls the midlane securely, without ever behaving unpredictably. Even the outward appearance conveys great stability and reliability, qualities that carry over seamlessly into the actual ball motion 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 Tropical Breeze Solid Black / Teal in direct comparison to the Brunswick Rhino, its considerably stronger emphasis on control and predictability becomes very clear. The Brunswick Rhino does offer a somewhat more angular move off the backend, but on difficult oil patterns it can react too sensitively or overreact. This is exactly where the Tropical Breeze Solid Black / Teal scores, with its steady, smooth and continuous arc toward the pins. Where the Rhino tends to miss the breakpoint, the Tropical Breeze Solid Black / Teal delivers the traction in the pocket needed to stay safely on course. It closes the gap between extremely strong balls and weaker models absolutely ideally. For bowlers who like the Rhino 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 response to friction on the backend produces outstanding carry, since the ball transfers an extreme amount of energy into the pins instead of wasting it prematurely with too sharp a change of direction. Once the transition sets in, the ball can still be used very effectively with small adjustments to your 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.
