Everybody has favorites, but what does everybody think is the Absolute BEST 2-Piece Ebonite ball ever?
For me, it is the GameBreaker...even though it is only just over a year old. Very, very good core/cover match up. Unfortunatly, I never had an original V2, but this is as good an Ebonite ball that I know.
What do you think is the best?

Possibly the best ball I have ever had,mainly because it was very versatile and took any surface changes v.well. Ebonite's "Blue Hammer" if you ask me.
--------------------
I would have got away with it if it was not for those pesky kids (Behind my lane) and those blasted 10 pins.

The Bash is the most versatile ball I own, and I'd never leave without it in my bag.
(Limited experience with Ebonite, so not much to judge it against)

Pantera- bar none. This ball played excellent for me on everything. I enjoyed all three that I owned, and have been pleading with my Ebonite rep for a re-make like they did with the Nitro R2, and Puma.

I have never thrown a reactive Ebonite ball. Ive only thrown an Ebonite Zoom Glow and Ebonite Don Carter Urethane. The Zoom I used like once, and the Don Carter I used to throw for my strike ball(When I threw straight) and for splits(When I started to throw a hook). I threw it REAL hard,

For me it's got to be the Gamebreaker followed by the Dual Block (hits like a tank especially on burnt up lanes).

Hi there.
I never had a V2.I heard it was awesome.It came out while I was on hiatis from bowling.I did however have an Ebonite Turbo-X back in the late 80's early 90's!
Anyone remember that one!? It had the same style(lightbulb shape)weight block in it.It hit like a runaway train!I now roll a Crossfire(same weight block style)and have had some great games with it.I also have an Infinate One.I like it a lot.I'm only a 190 or so ave.bowler,yet have shot 2 290's with it.And some pretty nice 700's.
Thanks for the trip down memory lane!

The One
Apex Obsession/Smashtime Solid (same ball)
I like The One more, but I had to throw the other two on here, just for the simple fact that I've had more high game/series awards from the Obsession and the Smashtime than anything else I've ever thrown.

Righty
High rev rate (400-450 rpm)
Semi-high speed (16-17 mph)
Book average: 202
For a game based on the principles of science and math, bowling sure does have a bad habit of being illogical.
