Your favorite ebonite ball?
Mine is the Game Breaker. I had seven of them drilled up over the last couple years.

Nitro/R
-
Absolutely love my Raid. A year ago it was my ultimate "go to" ball. However.... I like it so much, I am afraid to use it for fear it could get damaged and I would never find anything like it again.
Been searching for something very close to it. If I could find such a ball, I could start using my raid again, knowing I had a replacement available.

Blue Wolf was my best Ebonite ball.

Gamebreaker I have won over thousands dollars with this ball. But I am starting to like the one peral.
-
the "original" one and the infinite one.. both great balls..
-
RXS300 and a close 2nd with the NVD.
-
Its a split between the Clear Wolf and the Resin 8 ball, there wasnt a condition where the 8 ball wouldnt hook.
--------------------
Only throw the good stuff, Roto/Global.

I personally love the playmaker. I own 2 of them. Its the only ball ive thrown a 300 with and its better for me more than the evolve.
-
Turbo X would be my choice. I have not tried any Ebonite for a long time due to a mental block with the big E.

Ebonite Tidal Wave and the Ebonite Wave. Smoothest ball I ever rolled.

The action is really good. I have drilled both of mine up and I am thinking of getting a case of them.

They need to do a remake of this ball like they did with the one.
2nd would be a big time

2. Gamebreaker
3. CLash (Asymmetric)
4. Reactive 8 Ball (cracked in million pieces)
Not a condition that can dodge a combination of these balls....Havent punched up my Evolve or Magic Action yet. The One series was an excellenst series also.

Pinslasher is almost exactly the same, its very very close for me ball reaction wise.
My favorite 3 have been the Total NV, PinSlasher, and Gamebreaker.

i would have to cast my vote for the "ONE PEARL" -- with the "GAMEBREAKER" a close 2nd. but not by much.
-
Haven't owned many balls carrying the Ebonite label (owned plenty made by the Ebonite family), but my favorite would have to be the NVS

I don't thow a lot of Ebonite stuff, but the Playmaker I have thrown is an excellent and versatile piece. I hope the cover holds up though as many of my other ebonite stuff (such as total and complete NV's) just went to hell after 70 games.
-
Gyro III in the 70's. More recently, the Nitro/R2, Turbo/X. Great results with Total NV, Complete NV and Gamebreaker. But I'm so tired of ball death in the oil absorbers that I have gotten away from Ebonite and went to Lane Masters. It's nice to use balls that retain their reaction for more than a month. This isn't just an Ebonite problem as I've experienced this in Storm, Roto Grip, Brunswick and others. The only ones that seem to have avoided ball death are Lane Masters and Visionary. They're the ones that will get my money until this built-in obsolescence nonsense stops.
YMMV

Big Time Pearl.
just shot my highest ever series with it this past week!
-
Overtime...best Ebonite ball period/
-
Apex Adrenaline was the best I had, best ever IMO.
-
Yeah, storm83, I wish I would've bought a case of 'em! At the time it was like the Virtual Gravity now, everybody had one and everybody scored well with it.
-
matrix tps III carrys everything and still does
-
Complete NV.....although I had success with all the ones mentioned so far.
Second place for me was the Timberwolf solid.
