STORM CORE REFERENCE
Storm Bowling Ball Core Library
Every symmetric and asymmetric core Storm has put into a ball, in one searchable reference. Click any core to see its specs, the balls built around it, and the layouts that bring out its best motion.
By the BowlersMart Pro Shop Team. Last reviewed for the 2026 season. Cross-reference with the Storm Drilling Layouts guide for the right layout for each core.

CORE BASICS
Symmetric vs Asymmetric Cores
Before you click into a specific core, know which type you are looking at. The distinction changes how the ball lays out and how it moves on the lane.
UNIFORM SHAPE
Symmetric Cores
Have only a pin marker. Produce smoother, more predictable motion. Easier to control and ideal for benchmark layouts and arsenal foundations.
Examples in this library: Atomic, RAD3, RAD-E, Supercoil, Camber, Cruiser, Aeroflo, Velocity, F8
UNEVEN SHAPE
Asymmetric Cores
Have both a pin AND a PSA (Preferential Spin Axis) marker. Generate stronger, more defined backend motion. Standard in modern flagship balls.
Examples in this library: RAD4, RADX, Centripetal, Sentinel, Vector, Catalyst, Dual Drive, M.A.D., Iron Cross
