Our verdict

A pearl reactive ball built around a low RG, high differential core for strong flare and backend reaction. The listed RG and differential figures are for the lighter ball, so they are only a guide for this weight.

Overview

Storm built the Phaze A.I. as the pearl version of the Phaze II, pairing its Velocity A.I. core with a Pearl Reactive coverstock and a Power Edge finish. The ball also carries a Cherry Vanilla Cupcake fragrance.

The low RG, high differential core is aimed at flare, entry angle and pin carry, and the pearl cover is meant to give a strong backend. The limitation is data: the core numbers are given for the lighter ball, and no oil pattern guidance is listed.

Who it's for

Bowlers who throw a strong hook and want a pearl cover on a familiar core will see the idea. Spare shooters and bowlers wanting printed oil guidance should look elsewhere.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Low RG, high differential core
  • Pearl Reactive coverstock
  • High flare potential
  • Power Edge finish
Cons
  • Core data given for another weight
  • Oil pattern guidance missing
  • Drilling status unclear
  • Strong hook not for every bowler

Performance notes

A low RG core revs up early, and a high differential increases flare for a larger track and entry angle. The pearl coverstock is described as giving a dynamic backend reaction. The finish affects how far the ball skids before it hooks.
