Title: Big Time Pearl....small pic added
Post by: Big Columbia on May 11, 2005, 05:56:48 AM
Just got word from a Ebonite Rep that the Pearl will be released next week and be available for sale by the end of the month. I'm like a kid waiting for Christmas..... I don't know about the rest of the Ebonite releases. I didnt ask, Sorry.......

Wait a sec, i think the pic is a fake. Why would they made teh Big Time Pearl the same colors. Usually they mix it up and choose a different color scheme. I have a feeling that pic is a polished big time.

The new pearl bigtime will be a low load pearl particle. Kind of like how the game time cover is. But not exactly. The particle level is so low it will react closer to a resin than a typical particle cover.

I'm only guessing the ball will be cleaner thru the front and more angular than the regular big time. I will have to wait and see how different the balls characteristics are in order to make a better judgement. I feel the big time now rolls kind of heavy, I'm curious to see what a pearl version would do.

Bowlerkidr, why would I post a fake picture, really what good would that do, really. I tell you what, you post a picture of the ball then. Why don't you contact a Ebonite Rep and see for yourself......

The pic looks correct. Big Time Pearl color is maybe a sky blue and silver swirl. Same as Big Time but with the blue instead of black swirl.

Mr. Hickland,

So the Big Time Pearl has the same cover as the Big Time?  Or is it Pearlized Big Bang Low Load Particle?

So the cover is pearlized even though the Ebonite website does say sanded?
