The Zero Gravity from Storm has taken over the position of my go to ball in my tournament bowling ball. This is not a position I take lightly since I bowl so many tournaments. Prior balls that have earned that distinction have been the Nano, Victory Road Solid, IQ Tour Solid, Marvel S, and the Hyper Cell from Roto Grip. You can probably see from my list that I love solid coverstocks. My guess is if you had success with any of the balls I mentioned above, you will most likely have success with the Zero Gravity.
The Zero Gravity has a very unique roll which is almost hard to describe. The ball comes out of the pattern, and makes a strong move, yet it is very controllable, and not too strong. It glides through the heads very easily, and yet it isn't too weak, and can be used on heavy oil. I am also very impressed how hard the ball hits the pins. The IQ Tour Solid was a ball that made it easier for me to read the lanes because of it true roll. The Zero Gravity contains the same characteristic in that regard.
You know a ball is good when the truly make a difference, and you can measure the results. In my classic league, where I am fighting for high average at 240, I didn't have a set this year over 752. This was kind of amazing since I bowled 22 weeks before I used the Zero Gravity. The first night I used it in that league I threw 300-811, and the very next week I threw 783 with the ball. I also bowled 300-1213 for 5 at a NEBA Tournament while the cut score was only 1083. That is a measurable, result in my book.
Finally I believe the Zero Gravity is going to be proven as a ball that fits many different styles and can be used on a variety of different conditions. This ball is a favorite of mine, as well as a close friend of mine, who is also a Storm Staffer. The interesting part about that is because of our style difference we very seldom, if ever, have the same favorite ball. The Zero Gravity is the exception, and should make a nice addition to many bowlers' bags.
