I never felt like I wanted to try Ebonite. Until I threw the Big One. I fell in love with it. I then venture into the Overtime's, and they are some of the most impressive balls I've owned. I just recently pick up an Infinite One, and it's one of the hardest hitting balls I've EVER used.
I don't have a problem with any of them when used on the right shot. I can't wait until I can hit some oil with the IO and see how it reacts. But for me they've been great, maybe your drillings or surfaces haven't matched up.
Just my .2
