Review:
Ebonite’s Gamebreaker Asym is a significant evolution in the GameBreaker line. The core designers at Ebonite set out to provide a slightly different shape within the GameBreaker line. By slicing off the sides of the V2 core, they were able to create a core that provided a medium degree of asymmetry (.008). This new design provides the ability to fine tune the ball reaction when drilling by controlling the placement of the mass bias but still maintains a low enough level of intermediate differential to not lose the downlane continuation that the GameBreaker series has produced for the last decade.
The pearlized GB 12.0 cover provides a cleaner and sharper downlane ball motion compared to the GB4, which provides a natural complement as the GB4 starts to labor downlane during transition. When thrown against the GB4 the GameBreaker Asym was about 3-4 feet cleaner and about 3 & 2 weaker. This ball really begins to shine when you are looking to open your angles on medium oil or as the lanes are transitioning and still need the ball to read the midlane and roll through the back part of the lane.
Summary:
The GameBreaker Asym adds a new element to the extremely successful GameBreaker line. The new modified V2 core provides bowlers with the opportunity to fine tune their ball reaction when compared to the traditional symmetrical version of the core. The pearlized GB 12.0 coverstock provides more energy storage and downlane motion compared to Ebonite’s GB4. This ball finds its home as you need to create more angle through the front part of the lane or once a hook point has developed downlane. Utilizing this friction, provides a ball motion that clears the fronts with ease and allows theBowler Stats: 18 mph (off hand), 420 RPM, Axis: 4 ⅞†right, ¾†up
