...all of the "One" series overseas. We had...
The One/The One Encore
Big One
Angular One
Infinite One
The One Pearl
Total: 5
If you look overseas, they the above PLUS they got...
The One Pro Edition
Real One
Big One J-Limited
Absolute One
Supreme One
The One Platinum
Total: 6
First off, can somebody verify if the people overseas got the stuff we did? If they did, then why would ebonite release so many Ones that we never got? The One series was pretty popular over here from what I know, so why wouldnt they throw some of the balls over here and see what happens...???

It is true (to my knowledge) that all 11 balls were released overseas. I'm not sure why Ebonite didn't release them over here, probably for 2 reasons:
1. the specs weren't legal with USBC, but they were overseas
2. the equipment was designed for lane conditions we simply don't see here in the USA

Overseas market is alot bigger than the US market. You already have alot who claim the manufactures release to many ball here each year.

I have heard from main sources that if you are trying to sell a ball that is a few months old in Asia, the people there wont buy it no matter how good it is. They will only buy the newest releases, hence why they get way more balls in a year than we do. Most of their balls are for drier conditions and are only small tweaks of covers/cores, where ours are much larger.
