Storm IQ Tour 78/U Bowling Ball

If you’re looking for a smooth and predictable reaction, the !Q Tour 78/U may be for you! We’ve been testing new urethane materials and the combination on this bowling ball creates a new reaction different than current urethane options in the bowling industry. The new Controll 78 Urethane is also PBA® compliant.

Powering the !Q Tour/U is the proven C3 Centripetal Control Core that has made the !Q Tour line the industry’s go-to option for predictable, benchmark reaction. In the !Q Tour Ruby, the C3 Core will provide a combination of power and forgiveness that simply can’t be matched. This will allow you to maintain control of the pocket at all times without sacrificing the hooking motion and hitting power needed to put up big scores and stay ahead of the competition.
