@supermonkeyballboy Basing style on rev rate is outdated and obsolete. There's no longer 3, no wait, 4 simple classifications a bowler's style can be described (everyone always forgets Full Roller.) As bowling and ball technology have evolved tremendously so have the ways one can throw a ball, naturally there are far more ways to describe style to cover all that new gray area, i.e. Power stroker, etc. To continue to apply pros to that simple 3-style classification is shortsighted.

@jamoke I don't really get where you're coming from. TJ has a slightly lower rev rate than Smith but he's classified as cranker. For WRWJr, I see where you're coming from, but you're still classifying him as a stroker, just in a subcategory. As for Belmo, yes, he uses the two-handed approach, and he creates a high rev rate, technically making him a cranker, but a cranker who uses a two-handed approach. But two-handed bowling is also a VERY legitament style, not a style "for pussies only."

@supermonkeyballboy Robert Smith is a Power Tweener, WRW Jr. is a Power Stroker. A better example of a textbook stroker would have been the legend, Earl Anthony or Norm Duke. Tommy Jones is a textbook cranker, and Jason Belmonte doesn't count because two-handed is its own classification, "for pussies only."

In terms of this vid, that kid has no idea what the differences between styles are, nor how to switch between them.

@Captawesome3390 A stroker would be classified as someone who has a slower ball speed and a lower rev rate, about 200RPM. Walter Ray Williams, Jr. is a stroker. A tweener is someone wo has an average speed, about 17MPH, and rev rate, about 350RPM. A tweener would be considered Parker Bohn III. A cranker is smeone with a high ball speed and a hih rev rate, usally about 500, but some go up to 650-700! Robert Smith or Jason Belmonte would be considered a cranker. Hope this helps!
