The Crux offers the latest core technology from Storm and combines it with the new hybrid ERG coverstock. The Crux’s new Catalyst core is a low RG, high differential asymmetrical that is designed to reduce the amount of change that occurs to the ball’s mass properties as a result of drilling.

Two of our three testers had their best reaction on the heavy test pattern. Stroker and Cranker saw the ball read strong in the midlane and make a strong, continuous move at the back end.
