This video was actually really interesting

I am one of the supervisors of the core room at Storm products here in Brigham City Utah. We make around 2,000-2,100 balls a day.

Just randomly clicked this video. It was great! Really enjoyed it.

*_3:42_**_ "...A DE-KNOBBING MACHINE..."_* *_Thumbs Up if you remember Lorena Bobbitt._* 👍

Symmetric balls don’t have to go straight, my favorite ball is a DV8 Nasty Rumor and it hooks a lot plus is Symmetric, Asyms just turn later, Symmetrics are an arcing shape

This makes me wanna buy a bowling ball, cut it in half and stare at its glorious innards.

Sounds like an episode of "How it's Made".

Thumbs up for bowling

Gerat video - Ive always wanted to see how a bowling ball is made.

Finally a factory made bowling ball video that isn't from Ebonite! Storm Nation all day, all the way, baby!

Storm all the way! Bowlers serving bowlers. Storm is the bowler's company

I remember watching this in kindergarten after our bowling field trip

Lo que ya no me convence de la marca Storm, es que sus diseños se hicieron monótonos, se parecen a la bola Anarchy, sólo con diferente nombre, este año estoy convencida de comprarme una Track o incluso una Hammer....

learning more and more about bowling... i miss my bowling alley :(

I was waiting to hear the candy comparison for the red resin.

I wish the core was really chocolate milk and then the outside made of cheese; then after having a bad game, you at least get a consolation meal.

I like the "Factory Made" version on how the bowling balls are made then "How It's Made".

2:05- 2:46 is definetly some new roto grip cells

“Choose a ball about 10% of your body weight” - they make 25 pound balls... :)

"Hook into the pins with more impact" -- makes it sound like the cores deliver more physical power when really hook is just to get entry angle; 3-6 degrees is ideal for striking.

Nice video

The finish bowling ball is ready to strike without finger holes?

Damn,i wanna work there!!!

storm, hammer, wolverine... not sure which comic book character it was named after but i picked one up at the salvation army for 5 bucks. I cut it in half with a hand saw and made a nice engraving base with it. I was sure it was polyester inside as i used to use polyester resin and it smelled like it.

That is the core of the Roto Grip nuclear cell.

I very keen learn English. I learn it from watching cinema movie about balls. We do not have these balls where I come from. Thank you for reading this.

“Factory Made” should be hyphenated in the video title.

I never knew they had weights in them and wondered how they got the balls to curve on the lane like that. When I was kid a friend and I spent an hour breaking a bowling ball open with a sledgehammer. It had like a 3 inch thick plastic skin or whatever it was on the outside, surrounding a cement ball. We smashed it to dust! No weights or anything else. This was over 30 years ago so maybe the weights weren`t a thing yet. Or maybe just a cheap ball.

They left out the fragrance 😢😢😢

GO STORM!

i honestly have had storm balls and there not bad they take a good amount of abuse and last a long time and by the time you truly want another ball you have usually beat there ball into acoma by then

remember trying to learn how to bowl like the pros when i was a teen and untill my mid 20s i accidentally picked up my friends pro ball and realized how much spin i got(i was really drunk that night btw) but i threw it off to the side thinking its was a gutter then...BAM! curvs in for a strike, i was so pissed because for years i thought i didnt know how to bowl the ball but it turns out its mostly the ball doing the work lol. Years later a random bowler from a team told me that he was impressed i could bowl with the regular balls so well and told me i got a good hook with my shots and i didnt think much of it at the time but the more time goes on it just makes me laugh of that moment.

Well it's a polyurethane base but they add in extra ingredients not mentioned like rosin or tar. Stuff to roughen up and change it to a reactive resin or particle stock ball.

No two balls are exactly alike! 😂

ty for uploading this i've been looking for it :D ty 20060101 :D happy bowling

Thumbs up for Storm #Storm_Nation

It looks like chocolate to me 🍫

How is the pin size decided?

I can't believe that nothing about the smell of the storm balls was brought up

cool

10 years of bowling and i didnt know how the yellow dot got on the ball and now i know:))))

Virtual Energy

Very interesting

Now im not curious anymore Thanks recommendatins

Looks like a og Cell core

it's interesting~!!!

Nice! 0:19

Symmetric cores definitely don’t roll straight lol

Do they make 32lb bowling balls?

that's so cool 😘

Gata hold it with both hands and granny roll the strike

I wonder if that red in the mixing area was for a fast? It did go for a turbine core...

Looks like Brown 25!

all professional bowlers bowl with asyms and syms. they have a variety. syms are not just for beginners

wow!

Tiny death stars.

good old how it's made.

Today on "why is this in my recommended"

6:22 I wonder where can you get that coloring wax? I have a few bowling balls without the logos now and I want to color them back..

I would love to be a pro bowler if it wasn't for the gutter. Ball so throw lol

10 Percent of my body weight? a 22 pound ball? Yeah no thanks.

I noticed some misleading information here...While a round block (you will most likely know it for its real name, round core) is for beginners , proffesionals DO USE such type of ball for their second shot; for example, when you have to knock a pin which has another one behind a "hooking" ball will move out of the way when it strikes the first one, while the round core ball will strike them both with no problem, that is if you do it right of course :)

I prefer storm. The make good bowling balls

I Love the T zone ones also

@lilmanfromthehood Nope just a regular Vg my friend.

jiggling lol

cheers suggestions.

Is that the M.A.D core?

@rabidninjaboar that's done at the pro shop not the factory

The 10% of your body weight rule applies more to kids if anything. As an adult, I'd say a better rule of thumb is to go by hand size/strength. Small hands/weaker forearm? Stick to 12-13 pounds. Average, 13-15, etc. Though keep in mind, bowling ball manufacturers optimize performance toward 15 pound equipment, and 14 pounds at minimum, otherwise they use a different weight block which will sacrifice performance.

Why do the cores need smoothed/deburred before they are coated? Surely, such insignificant weight deviations wouldn't make a,y real difference.

2:03 It does Look Like Chocolate :P

If you weigh more that 160 pounds get a 16 pounder anyway

"Weight blocks" are called "cores" -___-

Are you kidding me. A professional writer wrote the line "THESE ONES"?

Mjölnir weight blocks

1:09 in fact "these ones" ......?? A solid C student talking here, but is that professional narrator quality grammer?

So according to the tip on choosing a back size I should be using an 18 pound ball

#Storm Nation

To be honest they NEVER fully cure.

The symmetric block balls hook. The guy is half wrong here. And not all coverstocks are made from urethane

So I should have a 35 pound ball? I think what I should do, is lose weight 😢

I have a storm ball

...that's no bowling ball... that's my wife!!!

10%? Where can I get a 22 lb ball?

How to make marbles for giants.

Where are holes for fingers?

so choose a ball thats 10% of my weight? and the max is 16 lbs? and so i need a 22.5 lbs ball guess ill stick to football

"Outer shell?" IT'S COVERSTOCK.

4:12 thru 4:27 looks like their making some new vg nanos

"Choose a ball about 10% of your weight"??? I weight 240, any 24Lbs balls out there?.

They didn't try very hard to use proper nomenclature.

To say that symmetric balls don't hook much is "completely wrong". Guy has no idea of what's he's talking about. Ball hooking is the combination of RG differential, coverstock strength, and drilling pattern.( even without the bowler trying to hook it). Asymmetric balls just offer more drilling preferences mainly.

You said balls,,lol

dont eat that resin it maybe look like chocolate but it would kill ya

Back in the day we had hollow bowling balls you filled halfway with motor oil. 40W Pennzoil would get you a righteous hook...

Ummm... I'm 12 but I use a 18 pound ball I think I'm a little too muscular...

Terrible analogy of the difference of Asymmetrical and Symmetrical bowling balls

My notifications are getting weird

is 6 pounds the lowest weight
