900 Global bowling balls are the smallest of the three Storm-owned brands, and in Malaysia they're sold through the same Storm VIP pro shops. In October 2026 the official range had just five balls, and the Sunway Megalanes web store listed only one: the Vengeance at RM990. So 900 Global is a brand you usually order on purpose rather than pick off a shelf.
From Texas to Utah
900 Global grew up in San Antonio, Texas, as the brand of Global Manufacturing. In 2014, Storm Products announced an investment in the company. Then, in April 2020, production moved from Texas to Storm's factory in Brigham City, Utah. Finally, in September 2020, Storm bought all of Global Manufacturing's assets. That deal added both 900 Global and the 3G shoe brand to the Storm group.
So today, 900 Global, Storm and Roto Grip share a parent, a factory and a dealer network. Each still has its own designs and names.
Numbered lines: 900, 800 and 600
900 Global keeps its range simple. Each ball belongs to a numbered line, and a bigger number means a stronger ball. Here's the full official list in October 2026:
| Ball | Line | Core | Cover | Flare |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Portal | 900 | Asymmetric | Solid | High |
| Viking Conquest | 900 | Asymmetric | Solid | High |
| Vengeance Returns | 800 | Symmetric | Hybrid | High |
| Vengeance | 800 | Symmetric | Solid | Medium-high |
| Onyx Polyester | 600 | Symmetric, lightweight | Clear polyester | Low |
In short, the 900 line holds asymmetric balls for heavy oil and high rev rates. The 800 line covers symmetric balls that suit most league bowlers. Meanwhile the 600-line Onyx is a plastic ball, mainly for spares.
What the Vengeance offers at RM990
The Vengeance is the one 900 Global ball you could buy online in Malaysia in October 2026. It has a symmetric core, a solid cover and medium-high flare. In plain terms, it's a strong, predictable ball for medium to heavier oil. At RM990 it sits level with Storm's Bionic, so it's worth asking the shop to compare both in your hand. Our overview of bowling ball types explains how solid, pearl and hybrid covers differ.
900 Global bowling balls compared with Storm and Roto Grip
- Range size: 900 Global listed five balls; Storm about 24 and Roto Grip 16 on the same site.
- Local stock: one 900 Global model online, against about 20 Storm balls and seven Roto Grip balls at Sunway.
- Price: the Vengeance at RM990 is mid-to-upper range, close to the Bionic and Gremlin Tour-X.
- Service: all three use the same VIP pro shops, so drilling and refits work the same way.
Who should consider 900 Global?
It suits a bowler who already owns Storm-group balls and wants a different look or reaction to fill a gap. It's also a fair pick if your driller recommends a specific model. However, a beginner will find more choice and easier stock in Storm's Tropical or Hot lines. Also, with a small range, you may wait for an order, so plan ahead before a tournament. For the bigger picture, see our bowling ball brands hub and the Storm guide.
Frequently asked questions
Are 900 Global bowling balls good?
Yes. Since 2020, Storm's factory in Utah has made them, so quality matches Storm and Roto Grip. The range is small but focused on reactive balls for league and tournament bowlers. In Malaysia, the weak point is stock: the Sunway Megalanes web store showed only the Vengeance in October 2026.
Where can I buy 900 Global bowling balls in Malaysia?
Through the Storm VIP Proshop network, which sells Storm, Roto Grip and 900 Global. Sunway Megalanes in Sunway Pyramid runs the network's directory and an online store. Because local stock is thin, call ahead or ask the shop to order a model. Our list of pro shops covers each state.
How much does a 900 Global bowling ball cost in RM?
The only price we found was RM990 for the 900 Global Vengeance on the Sunway Megalanes web store on 16 October 2026. That puts it level with Storm's Bionic and Roto Grip's Gremlin Tour-X. Stronger 900-line balls like the Portal weren't listed locally, so ask your pro shop for a quote.
Who makes 900 Global bowling balls?
Storm Products Inc. The brand began at Global Manufacturing in San Antonio, Texas. Storm invested in that company in 2014, moved 900 Global production to its Utah factory in April 2020, and took full ownership that September. The deal also brought the 3G shoe brand into the Storm group.
