An Affordable Urethane for Recreational Bowlers
About the Mix
Storm is synonymous with high performance, but not everyone is in the market for a premium ball. The Storm Mix series is built for recreational bowlers just getting into the game, an affordable, easy-to-control ball that gives you a little more than plastic without the price or the unpredictability of high-end equipment. It is available in a wide range of fun colorways.
The Mix pairs a simple, low-flare 3-piece core with Storm’s U1S Solid Urethane coverstock at a 3500-grit polish. Urethane reads the lane more gently than reactive resin, so the Mix offers a smooth, controllable touch of motion, more than a plastic ball, but far more predictable than a strong reactive piece.
Understanding the 3 Piece Core and Storm U1S Solid Urethane
Storm built the Mix for easy, affordable control. Specifically, the simple 3-piece core keeps flare low for a smooth, predictable motion, while the U1S Solid Urethane cover generates a gentle, controllable reaction rather than the sharp hook of reactive resin. As a result, the Mix is an approachable, forgiving ball, a step up from plastic for recreational and developing bowlers, without the cost or unpredictability of premium equipment.
A Simple, Low-Flare Core for Predictable Motion
The Mix uses a simple 3-piece core with low flare, so the ball rolls smoothly and predictably rather than hooking sharply. That keeps the reaction easy to control, which is exactly what a recreational or developing bowler wants in an affordable ball.
Because the core keeps flare low, the Mix gives you a gentle, consistent shape you can repeat. It is forgiving and easy to read, an approachable ball to learn on or to keep things simple on tougher lanes.
A Gentle, Controllable Urethane Cover
The Mix wraps that core in Storm’s U1S Solid Urethane coverstock at a 3500-grit polish. Urethane is a milder material than reactive resin: it grips the lane gently, so the Mix offers a smooth, controllable touch of hook without the strong, sometimes unpredictable motion of a high-end reactive ball.
That gentle reaction is what makes the Mix so approachable. You get a little more shape than a plastic ball provides, with a predictable, easy-to-control feel that is ideal for recreational bowling, league newcomers, and anyone who wants a forgiving, affordable option. Keep it clean and polished for the smoothest, most consistent motion.

BowlersMart Tips: Where the Mix Fits in Your Storm Arsenal
Where It Fits in Your Arsenal
In the Storm lineup, the Mix is the affordable, recreational option at the entry end of the bag. Where a plastic ball goes straight and a reactive ball hooks strongly, the urethane Mix sits in between with a gentle, controllable touch of motion. It is a great first ball or a simple, predictable option for casual bowling, and it pairs naturally with a plastic spare ball for a complete, budget-friendly setup.
Surface Adjustments
The 3500-grit polish keeps the Mix smooth and controllable. There is rarely a need to change the surface on a recreational ball, but your pro shop can re-polish it if it loses its shine. Keep it polished for the most predictable motion.
Coverstock Care
Wipe the urethane cover with an approved ball cleaner after use. Urethane is durable and low-maintenance, so a quick wipe keeps the Mix reading smoothly and looking sharp for years.
