This is one of the best balls I have seen so far. Tested it at the alley, and it was so good!! If you don't believe me, try it out!

Storm DNA Coil
Ball Specs: EXO Pearl coverstock with the Supercoil core, surface finished with React a Gloss
Layout: 5 X 5 X 3 VLS 2.0
Bowler specs: 15.5 mph and rev rate in the 380’s and my is PAP is 3 ¼ and at zero up/down and tested on Pro-Lane at ABC North Lanes in Harrisburg, Pa., and Colony Park Lanes and Games in York, Pa.
During practice on the fresh house patterns at both locations were a little tricky on the reaction, as I saw if I got the ball between 15 and 17 boards at the arrows, there was a very defined reaction in the midlane and back end. If I projected the ball up 20-22 boards, it labored a good bit more. The sweet spot on the fresh and slightly used was to play in around the 3rd arrow and get the DNA COIL to roll right through the 2 down lane marker boards on Pro-Lane surface. A little flatter hand and moving left of center for me created that same look as long as I hit that sweet spot right between those two targets. The COIL’s reaction on HPL was of course a little sooner and stronger, both centers I bowl in have the all new Kegel Atlas machines, but one used terrain and the other uses Infinity – which is the center with HPL lane surfaces, which I feel the Infinity on that surface does not hold up well and continue through the day had to keep making more adjustments with the COIL and at the other center, the pattern held up better on the Pro-Lane, but the reaction was not a strong as I would like in a league play setting.
The Coil will become a part of my league bag for Colony Park Lanes for the simple reason it has a better overall reaction on the fresh there and after a game or two, I can migrate to the Roto Grip Attention Star to finish out the match if need be. A good strong 2 ball step up from the Summit Peak and a full step for me from the Virtual Energy Blackout, AKA: VEBO.

Review:
The Storm DNA Coil for me is an upgrade on the original DNA. This ball reads the midlane very well and has a nice move on the back end. The ball is very predictable for a strong shiny ball. I am not seeing any over under from this ball. For me this will be a medium to heavy oil condition ball. I left the DNA Coil at box surface and would put it between my IQ Ruby and Summit Peak in total hook. This is another good strong ball from SPI. What I like most about this ball is how it plays as the oil breaks down and the lanes transition. I am able to make confident moves and stay in my comfort zone.

Summary:
The DNA Coil is strong and predictable.
The hit and carry is very good.
I like this version better than the original.

Storm DNA Coil – WWRD 3/15/2024

Cover: EXO Pearl Reactive
Core: Supercoil
RG: 2.47
RG. Diff.: 0.053
Finish: Reacta Gloss
Fragrance: Orange Pineapple Slush

Storm’s new DNA Coil is a Pearl Asymmetric Piece. This piece is good for Medium-Heavy Volume Patterns. PAP is 5 5/16 R 1 3/16 Up. Rev Rate: 400. Speed: 16.5. Drilled this piece with the Pin Up between the Fingers, CG kicked out 1.5” from the palm, 1/2” right of the Thumb. EXO Pearl provides length with a few boards of area check because it reads the midlane better than most other pearl pieces. Burned up 43’ house pattern, Out of Box ball motion was clean through the fronts, started in the mids with a strong backend reaction. I compared this piece Virtual Energy Blackout (1-1 Right) and Summit Peak (2-2 Right). This Versatile piece fits all styles of bowlers.
