Ball came in at 15lb 3.4 oz. top and a 4 inch pin.  drilled it label, and it goes straight, just like it says it will do.  Will clear heads easily and needs a little midlane oil to keep it from getting to bumpy and jumpy on the back.  Will not react well in oil.  I does hit very good. Most dry lane balls you expect to hit weak, this one does have some power in it.  I like it a lot.

WOW is all that I can say about this ball. This ball is great gets down the lane so nicely, saves so much energy and hits so hard. Once I got this ball and tried it I was like it is nothing special then again it was on a sports shot and I was messing around with something. Once I worked with this ball I found out what it could do and man this ball is godly. I can play straight up or swing it a bit and it just takes the pins down. This is one of the hardest hitting balls that i have ever owned never had a ball that carries like this. This ball works great on med-lighter oil. You need a light oil ball drill this you will not be sorry. Ebonite does it again what about a solid version of this ball maybe call it a ice burgee I would be first to drill it I can tell you that man it is do great what can I say. Great ball 10 out of 10

Not sure what to drill, drill a Storm or a Track there is no better.

this is a good ball if you are accurate.  light hits do not carry very well with it, but if you hit flush, the pins dont have a chance, or even a little high , you will get a lot of trip 4s.  you can play it on any condition, the lighter oil you can swing it and on heavy oil you can stand to the right and play a direct line and it will still carry pretty well.  the ball is a bit speed and rotation sensative, but it is a good ball if you are consistent.  this is the only ball i throw that isnt brunswick so that says a lot for me.

Nothing else even comes close to Brunswick.

I've been looking at this ball ever since it came out and finally had one drilled up. I regret that I didn't do it a lot sooner.

I've been needing a ball for dry lanes to complement a Storm Dark Thunder and a Roto Grip Silver Streak SE. I needed something, specifically, for burnt heads. I believe I found what I'm looking for.

This ball is 14 pounds, with the pin above the bridge about a half-inch. The CG is below the ring finger about an inch and a half, and to the right about a half-inch.

I wasn't planning to use it tonight, but I got a chance when what had been a fairly slick set of heads burned out terribly in the third game, a factor of eight bowlers playing almost the exact same area. It turned into an over-under nightmare, with six of the other seven bowlers on our pair dropping off a fair bit from their first two game scores.

It's not often that I can't direct my SSSE through even dry heads, but I couldn't tonight. As a last resort, I went to the Ice, and immediately found a shot. This ball clears the heads so well, even though they were trash by the time I pulled this ball out. Instead of having to move left, left, and left some more and play tight in the middle, where I'm not comfortable, I was able to move back to my more comfortable down and in line and play strongly to the pocket.

The Ice never over/undered, never got jumpy, and gave me a very true shot. It carries like a truck, which surprised me because I've never been all that impressed with this particular core design until now.

I don't think this ball will be many people's first option out of the bag, unless they're in a dry house all the time, but a ball that acts this way is a virtual necessity when putting together an arsenal. I think the Ice will be with me a long, long time.

I just had one of these punched up last week because I bowl a late shift (9:00 PM) league in a house that hooks like crazy by the last game or two.  I was specifically looking for a ball that had a controllable backend, but still had more punch than a conventional urethane, which is what I often had to step down to by the third game of league.  So far I only have 5 games on this ball (2 practice games and one league session), so I'll probably post a follow-up review after I have more games on it.

Anyhow, it is 15 lbs with a 3" pin-out.  I had my pro shop guy place the pin directly above and between the finger holes for more length and less flare, and the CG is in the middle of my grip.  Left the ball in OOB polished condition.  I'm a tweener type player with above average revs and an average ball speed of 17 MPH.

I first played this ball on a fresh house shot for two practice games and it rocked.  This is a house that uses an oiling machine that goes all the way to the pit and strips the backends, so there is always a lot of hook on the back, on a freshly oiled shot.  Anyhow, I was able to play this ball straight up the track area at the 2nd arrow and it was just blistering the rack.  I found that it was very forgiving.  I could pull it a few boards and it would hold pocket and strike.  Conversely, I could miss to the right and it had enough turn to come back into the pocket to strike.  I thought it was very cool to be able to play the track area because I normally have to play 3rd arrow or deeper at this house.  I don't mind playing deep, but this ball gives me the option of  moving right and going straighter.  When this ball hits flush, the pins don't stand a chance.

To conclude, this ball is a bit condition-specific.  You have to play it staighter on fresh oil or it will skid way past your breakpoint.  But on dryer shots, it really shines.  If you are looking for a ball that lets you play the lanes a little straighter or if you are a tournament bowler, I would highly recommend adding this ball to your arsenal.

This balls serves the purpose of the dry ball in my "arsenal", it gets the most length out of any ball but is still surprisingly strong given the layout and surface prep.  This combination does promote length, but the surprising strength of the core definitely gives the ball a bit of a kick in the backend.  Not surprising considering the strength of the coverstock (Trimax resin, same as the V2), this ball has been one of the most versatile pieces i've thrown ever.  I've had this ball at every grit from 800 (grey scotchbrite) to 4000+polish (current) and it's reacted VERY well at each, at 800 and 1000, the ball definitely had some bite in the midlane thanks to the Trimax coverstock, and rolled through the backend with a slightly continuous, but definitely not TOO strong motion.  At higher grits (2000, 4000, and any base grit+polish) the ball definitely got more length and rolled through the backend, not exactly a flip, but definitely a mild arc.

Strong if sanded, weaker if polished, and VERY strong at the pindeck, this ball easily became my favorite ball when I dropped to 15# 2+ years ago.  I had drilled another one in the meantime with a longer pin and closer to the PAP, but it was too close in reaction to this one so I moved it.  What that taught me was that the core isn't too versatile, but you're pretty much gonna get what you expect regardless of the layout on the ball, I would play with the cover if you're looking for two distinct reactions out of two different Ices.

I'm a cranker naturally, but I can play a stroker or tweener line, and have done so with this ball often. My ball speed is about 16 mph, and I have very little axis tilt, about 25-40 degrees axis turn, once again, varied depending on the line/shot I'm on.

Got this ball used from a friend of mine, and it may have had 50 games on it. I did a full plug and redrill on the ball, so now I'm tracking in an entirely fresh area of the ball, with the pin about 1/2 inch above the bridge, CG kicked out at a 50 degree angle from the center of grip line, and a small weight hole up the VAL. With a slight polish, this ball does exactly what I expected.

The ball was drilled to be long and skid flip, so that I can throw it in lengthy tournaments when the heads and mids get burnt. It works. Slow it down a little and move inside, the ball flies through the oil, gets to the backend, and reads...hard! The ball, when it's left in the oil, doesn't flip, but actually reads like a particle, as long as you throw it slow enough. When you play up the drier boards with this ball, it does exactly what I drilled it to do. It skids, picks up revolutions at about 45 feet, and makes a left hand turn downlane, although it's completely controllable.

The best feature of this ball: it hits like a truck!! Of course, the ball is tracking on fresh coverstock, so it will hit a little harder than anything else, but this ball is absolutely amazing. It will most likely be replacing my Radical Inferno, which has a tendency to squirt/jump when it hits a dry spot or a puddle.

If you can get your hands on this ball (even though discontinued for a year or two now) I would look into it. It has the same weight block as the Ebonite Clash, but as far as I can tell, doesn't have the over/under reaction associated with the coverstock.

For a game based on the principles of science and math, bowling sure does have a bad habit of being illogical.
