Gamebreaker GBV 12.7?????
« on: July 09, 2007, 11:29:59 AM »
Thats what the first one I got my hands on in the shop says on the cover, does anyone know if this is the actual cover or if I got a mislabeled one.  I have asked my boss who is an ebonite staffer and he is suppose to find out for me.  Still has "The One" cover and 10.7 listed on their website.

Simply a mistake. The cover is 10.7, The One cover.
The box is labeled correct. Some balls are mis-stamped.
It doesn't change the ball motion.
Some literature is also mis-labled.
No excuses, just a mistake.
No biggie, just a error in stamping.
The ball however is GREAT. V-2 Black Blue roll with more
hook on the back.
I ask you, how can that be a mistake?
So, regardless what is stamped on your ball, it is
10.7 with lots of strikes.

Mine came with the color sprayed on.I now have a black Gamebreaker which I consider one of the best releases in the last couple of years.An improved V2.The stampings were correct.Great ball POOR quality control.Top weight and CG was also mismarked but that worked in my favor.

Thanks for the kind words Rack.
That one was made just for you.
Please keep it or sell it on Ebay.
Please buy another, I know I am gonna
punch 2 more to match my 3 tired V-2's.
Again , Thanks......

The catalog even has the mistake.  In the description it says "We have combined the veneer of The Angular One with the core of the ball of the 90's, the V2 sanded"....Then in the chart it lists Coverstock GB 10.7.

I threw this ball tonight drilled 4 1/2 pin to pap and cg at 4, very strong arcing ball revs up hard and keeps on hooking through the pins. Mine was labeled correctly and is the correct colors, i also threw the Raid and like it even more than the gamebreaker.

This ball will hook alot on a medium shot, i did not touch the cover like i had to on The Raid with a 2000 by hand then the Raid became a very nice rolling and hooking ball.
