The number one factor of ball motion is Coverstock. Just one shot with the new Hy-Road™ Black Pearl and you’ll see the difference. The R2S™ Pearl Reactive shell floats easily through the front, maintaining ball speed as much as possible, waiting to really cut loose on the backends!
Matching the Core to the Coverstock is equally important, though. That is why the same Inverted Fe²™ Technology™ weight block will be carried over into the new Hy-Road™ Black Pearl. Pairing the R2S™ Pearl Reactive coverstock with the dynamic Fe²™ weight block ensures that your favorite layouts in your previous Road series balls will be just as effective in the new Hy-Road™ Black Pearl. You see, Storm recognizes your needs as a bowler because we, too, are bowlers! And just like you, we want every advantage on the lanes that we can get.
Don’t forget that the thicker shell of the Hy-Road™ Series makes a difference, too. The amount of energy transferred to the pins at impact is greater, translating to unmatched power at the pocket. It’s part of what makes the Hy-Road™ one of the most special balls in the history of bowling.
The staple of reliability that was the Hy-Road has carried over to its successor, the Hy-Road™ Black Pearl. Inverted Fe²™ Technology™ provides more hitting power with every shot that is truly profound. The R2S™ Pearl Reactive clears the fronts with an unparalleled motion as it exits the end of the pattern.
Smartly designed Inverted Fe² Core
Inverted Fe²™ Technology™ boasts a higher RG and differential like most other balls in the Thunder™ Line, but with one very important benefit: it lacks the Core material that most other balls have. This enables the ball to have a much thicker shell which raises the coefficient of restitution. A higher energy transfer to the pins with less deflection upon impact is what can be expected with this design.
The R2S™ delivers a perfect balance
R2S™ is synonymous with some of the most successful balls in recent history like the Hy-Road™, Frantic™, and the !Q™ 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.
