    Unless it changed recently Roto Grip is made in Utah. Now if it was made in china I wouldn't have a problem with it. Unless they start putting radioactive or hazardous waste in them (like in the dry wall or fake viagra pills)

    Who makes Roto Grip Bowling Balls?

    Roto Grip products are manufactured at Storm Products, Inc. in Brigham City, UT. Roto Grip was purchased by Storm in 1997 and since then all balls have been made in Utah. Roto Grip designs their own cores and covers to be unique and not similar to Storm balls. Although you should see some similarities in our products because they are made on the same manufacturing lines.

    well.. I went bowling today and the pro shop guy told me that new stocks will be coming for roto grip in June.. so i guess i'll just wait till than.. and thn.. he said about storm too.. they are good at the start.. but dies down faster as they absorb more oil thn others.. (don't know how true it is)

    I'm using Lane 1 MaxXx Curve now too =P

    so brunswick is better thn storm in your opinion uh?? right? personally I don't really like storm after seeing reviews about frantic dying out after 50 games.. vivid being strong for the first part of its life and thn die out faster thn other brands ball.. so.. i guess storm is out for me.. whats left is maybe DV8, Roto grip maybe lane 1 too..

    it's personal opinion, but for me, yes brunswick currently better than storm.. but maybe only slightly.. (if you watch F1, the difference between Brunswick and Storm is maybe 0.1-0.2s in terms of F1 cars.. lol)
