Storm Lightning Blackout Bowling Ball Review! This Ball Is Going To Be A STAPLE In The Arsenal! 

The way you set this up for first half Fresh at South Point and then Second Half Burn at the Luis Napoles Bowling Center is a great set up. Hopefully more of this type of BR

I love the two different places/transition levels

definitely one of the best looks i've seen in your reviews.

The REX cover is very versatile. I have 2 balls with it: Night Road and VEBO. I've used both balls with surface changes from 1500 to 5000 +shine depending where I'm bowling and what the pattern is. This new ball you are reviewing looks so matched up for you Louis, glad you will be throwing 2 and that they work at 2 different houses. I dream of that kind of simplicity with a 3 ball bag I can take anywhere. If only.

Like the review setup for this video. Shows the ball's versatility nicely. I have a hunch the Lightning is gonna be a ball that appears in a lot of lefty's bags

It definitely reminds me a lot of my beloved Storm Night Road. I'm gonna grab this ball at some point

That’s funny because I was thinking the same thing. How does this lightning blackout stack up with the IQ tour Ruby?

I'm with you, love straight!

Hi Luis, that ball is smooooth. Love your videos man!

I love how you show performance at Sam’s Town and South Point. This is a Benchmark Bowling ball. Paul ( Ball of the Year ? )

Have been looking for game one ball, currently using a GB2 and orig Outer limits with little success. After watching this video going to order this ball, haven’t used Storm in 10 years. Thanks

Hey Luis I love the videos but wanted to ask why you changed bending the back more compared to older videos where you stood taller throughout the whole swing ?

Great video, thanks louis.

This ball looked really good. May have to get one because where you were standing and looking is where I play

I like how you show the two different centers to show the flexibility of the ball motion. I have been struggling with a choice though. My game 1 is usually magic gem. Then game 2 the lane usually allows me to use the phaze 2. I can usually shoot close to or above 200 if I am executing my shots (which isn't as common as I would like). However, I usually struggle in game 3 because I have hy road and hy road pearl (in 14 lbs) and I feel like I have to slow it down too much to consistently be near the pocket. I've been wondering if it would just be better to go with a VEBO, Attention star, iq ruby, the road, or now this one. I still don't understand different strengths of coverstocks super well yet.

Man I need this. Need a good straight ball up 10

I don't know why but the reaction reminds me of a UC3 after it gets some lane shine on it. Very nice!

Love this video and I wondered if The Road and Lightning Blackout would fit in the same bag.

Well, so far for me (because I haven't thrown that one... yet) I would say the road. I love playing down and in, and I'll start with the road, and when needed, I'll bring out the IQ Ruby. With this combo, I've thrown 650 and greater series for the past couple of league nights

Would love to see it compared to the Hustle BRY. They both have similar core numbers and it would be interesting to see how much difference there are in the coverstocks.

So Luis. I’m getting in a 2 Ball league. We get anything Storm/Roto Grip /900 Global. I’m a 180 average and more down and in than crank shape bowler. I’m curious after watching all your reviews. I’m undecided but the ones I’m leaning towards. 1 Attention Star 2 Optimum Idol 3 The Road 4 Lightning Blackout 5 Eternity Pi I throw pin down. So. Suggestions? Also I already have the Phaze II the original HyRoad and the Tour Dynam-X

Luis, how long is your pin and what is your pin to pap? I'm a low speed bowler and im thinking about trying your layout for my next ball.

Would love to see this compared to literally any hustle balls at the same surface because now way should I be paying the extra money for a storm ball when roto grip sells hustles for only 100$ online

@ the 2:10 mark, the guy with the white shirt in the background has a really unique throw. Ive never seen that before.

Please make a 3 game series video with the 2 blackouts!

My favorite balls for later in thr block. Strong core weak cover. Right noe its the astro physix i love that ball

Looks great Love REX

Yeah this ball looks NICE!

Wow! Great video Luis. Throwing the ball at different locations and conditions, illuminates how the ball handles the two types of lane conditions and houses, and how it handles the angles needed to strike on each! I was enamored with the ball motion, at SouthPoint, that straighter approach it right up my alley. To give a response to your question, I'd have to say, the ball you recommended I get, that rolls better to/for me, iQ Tour Solid (I have video proof on my channel), lol! Again, great video Luis, keep it up! See you when I see you.👍👊✌🖖

Looks like a great ball. Storm missed an opportunity to put this into the thunder line. Why pay the extra 50 dollars when you can get a hustle with a similar result?

great video, l have tried storm off and on over the past coiuple of decades and never quite matched up with the equipment except on the Old Virtual Energy. this one looks like it will fit big time. Luis, how does this match up with the Storm Virtual Energy Blackout? oh and hope Oliver is doing great and you and the Mrs are too

DANGGIT Luis! You're gonna sell me another ball...probably to replace my old and very worn Camo.

I still have and use my IQ tour emerald. Would this be a good replacement for my emerald?

@luis napoles do u think this and the vebo and attention star would be good adds to the bag with optimum idol and summit peak

The A.I. Core is the real deal. I through a Summit and an Absolute Power. My in-between in a Journey that I love, but you can hear the difference between the A.I. Cores and the non-A.I. Cores.

Looks like the Hustle line. maybe the Hustle X-Ray from your Hustle review. and for my money I would buy the Hustle over the Lightning.

Curious to see how it matches up against the IQ ruby cause thats the spot it would be fighting for in my bag

Good morning

Luis what ball do you recommend for playing straighter angles. Something that doesn’t overreact to friction and goes long?

Is it that different than the Ruby?

You're comments please on a 1 - 2 punch with a hustle rip or mm , and which would you put surface on the hustle or the blackout OR are they just too close 🤔

Reminds me of my Hyroad

how does this compare to the Ruby? Seems like a lot of overlap, but both look really good, even tho I am not a SPI fan overall. I would put this in my bag if I was.

ive never known how to , or when , or to even have enough confidence to alter the surface of any ball ive ever had.

Do you crack that shell with a higher number surface or lower number? 2000>1000? Or 1000>2000?

Xponent pearl vibes??? Iq Ruby maybe??? Thoughts?

Wonder how it would look with lane shine instead of reactagloss

The virtual energy blackout is the vebo is this gonna be the Lbo

I would say the Optimum Idol for me

could you do a lightning blackout vs hyper venom?

Similar to Night Road/GDL.

Attention star ball of year!

Does this replace the idol in the bag?

Compare it vs a hustle ball!!!

It's amazing. You must be the best bowler in the world. Every video I've seen of yours, you never miss the pocket or even leave a 10 pin here or there. Every storm ball you've reviewed, you have loved also. You need to be on tour brother. They shouldn't let you enter local tournaments

How does this fit in with the Virtual Blackout?

Can you get another one of these, but have the second ball pin down?

I am new to bowling but why does it seem like Luis doesn’t get his hand behind the ball as much as some people do?

I have and love vebo. How is this different?

Could you compare this to an iq tour pearl?

Storm Gold Label is gonna be crazy ngl

How does this compare to IQ tour ruby?

Just making it more confusing for me now with arsenal now lol. And that’s not the one they announced for May 7th as well so we have that coming soon as well

so is it kinda like …lightning blackout is to iQ78U as nu blue is to black pearl?

Stronger then hyped solid ?

I wonder how it stacks up against the Gold Label?

A knew ball is always gonna roll good.. but what will this ball do after a few games..( meaning a few months..)

Compared to the Hustles?

I kind of want to see this vs a Zen.

My only question is who really wants to pay $50 extra dollars for a thunder line ball because it says blackout on it lol.

Another “must”

L., vs. IQ Ruby pls.

This Lightning Blackout looks like the Hustle M-M, only with a stronger core and $80 more.

Compare it to the fate

shape wise looks like an axiom pearl.. anyone see that too?

we are not throwing this on the fresh. CMON MAN!

Cool video talk tech bowling ball storm lightning blackout bowling ball with ai technology in the bowling ball more strike and spares hitting power at time Luis napoles

Answer to your question: Attention Star.

It's like a Hustle on roids

Attention star!!!!

He will probably own at least 5 or these soon 😂

I'm just going to throw this out there but every ball that you or anyone else reviews and posts on RU-vid always have the same saying that the ball is awesome , going to be a go to ball , etc.... etc . Let's face it these reviews help ball companies sell.

Phaze 2 all day over this. Don’t need the latest and greatest to carry the corners.

Dude, isn't this just a hustle?

Not paying $50 extra for this. Hope others enjoy it for me

Eh. Gonna pass on this one. This screams symmetrical VEBO. Too many others in the lineup already that could/have filled that spot in the bag.
