Kinda wondering why Storm doesn't fragrance the Roto Grip balls.
Storm holds a patent on smelly urethane that keeps other manufactures from doing the same.

I debated on getting this ball instead of the hyper cell skid, they both look like they would be nice balls to have, in the end I can't complain about the ball I have but I'd love to have this one also.

I have been wanting this and bowlingboards.com knows my address so.......

This would give me another option in my Roto Grip arsenal. Speaking of storm and the way they have scents built into them. My roto grip hyper cell skid has a scent to it. Steve

Roto Grip is a cool name for a ball. So is Unhinged, which is what my wife would become if I bought another ball this year. I'm allowed to win one though.

The scent is steve?:) I didn't know they started scents with roto equipment also. Must have just started recently, last roto ball i bought was the sinister.

I know a guy nicknamed "Stinky Steve".
Guy owns, operates and lives in a machine shop. Never wears shoes, rarely bathes, but is top notch machinist.
I hope it's not that smell

[jojoboys]

this is the exact ball i need to throw my first 300 game!!

Everyone else will have to just get in line behind me. This one is mine. :p

It smells kind of sweet maybe like a new car air freshener. It was an early one made in December according to the box. I have never had a storm ball drilled but there scents are all different from what I have read. If I win the unhinged I will let everyone know how it smells when it is drilled... Steve

[Tony]

I think the Hyper Cell Skid I got a couple of months ago also had a scent, smelled like a musky fruity smell, something I didn't recognize exactly. Left it in the truck for a few hours and you could certainly notice it when I opened the door. I can't swear it wasn't Steve or even Smelly Steve since those scents are not one's I'm familiar with, but it was something, even if just out-gassing aroma from the ball ? Not sure but we can suggest they mix up a batch of Steve
The ball inspection date on the box is 11/13/2014

Been checking this ball up! Hook me up! Save me some cash!

So do you need to post in this thread to be entered or are all members automatically entered by posting in the Forum during the entry period?

[ragstormfan]

Want the chance to throw more Roto Grip stuff! This would help get me started.

Might be stuck in a rut with Storm gear. Like what I've seen with the Unhinged ball so far. It could be a good addition to someone's arsenal...

[fortheloveofbowling]

I will take a 16lb 3-4 pin please. Thank you very kindly.:)

FYI RotoGrip is owned by Storm

[fortheloveofbowling]

FYI RotoGrip is owned by Storm

Probably close to 20 years but have always had different core and cover designers and tended to have different motion concepts overall.

And they are NOT scented!

Foxie25, nice to see another Ohioan on the board. You've been a member longer than I have. Just don't remember seeing the name.
