Performance Analysis

Performance Analysis

The Storm IDentity represents Storm’s flagship pearl asymmetric, built around the ID AI core and the all-new ReX Pearl Reactive coverstock. With an RG of 2.51 and a massive .055 differential, this ball generates exceptional flare and an aggressive backend reaction. The ReX Pearl coverstock is a brand new formula designed to push through the fronts cleanly while storing energy for a powerful move at the breakpoint.

Jason Belmonte himself featured in the launch video, and with 1,130 units sold, the IDentity has proven to be one of Storm’s most in-demand releases. The Storm Power Edge finish on ReX Pearl provides the length needed to get through the heads, while the ID AI core’s .055 differential delivers one of the strongest backend moves in Storm’s pearl lineup. The 9.5 backend rating tells the story — this ball makes a decisive, angular move off the spot.

Who Is This Ball For?

The IDentity is built for serious bowlers who want Storm’s strongest pearl asymmetric option. Power players and higher rev rate bowlers will love the angular backend motion, especially during tournament play when lanes start transitioning and you need a ball that gets through the fronts cleanly. If you’re a control-oriented bowler, be aware that the .055 differential and ReX Pearl combination produces a significant angular move — this is not a smooth, blending pearl. It’s a statement piece for bowlers who want maximum backend from a pearl coverstock.
