Storm IQ Tour 78/U Bowling Ball: Classic Control with a Modern Urethane Edge

Engineered for precision, the Storm IQ Tour 78/U brings a fresh take to urethane performance with the brand-new Control 78 Solid Urethane coverstock. This formulation delivers a smoother, more predictable reaction than traditional urethane, making it the ideal choice for dry to medium oil lane conditions. And yes. It’s PBA® compliant, giving you tournament-ready confidence from your very first throw.

At its heart is the trusted C3 Centripetal Control Core, a symmetrical shape that has made the !Q Tour line a favorite among competitive bowlers worldwide. This low-RG (2.49) and low-diff (0.029) core promotes early roll with minimal flare, allowing for a strong, controlled arc that keeps you in the pocket without overreacting on friction.

With its deep 500 Grit finish and true urethane motion, the IQ Tour 78/U is your go-to for taming dry lanes, controlling the backend, and executing shots with finesse: not flash. Finished in bold red, it’s a statement of substance over showmanship.
