New Balls?
« on: November 18, 2003, 05:03:04 AM »
I read on the PBA forums that Ebonite is apparently releasing 4 new balls this month.  They are:

Killer Instinct Pearl
Killer Instinct Sanded
Prime Time
V2 Clean

Does anyone have any more info on these balls?

V2 Clean is suppose to go longer than the V2 Pearl did.. Some people I guess thought the v2 pearl still came up too early.. but its suppose to have the same characteristics as the v2 pearl.. but goes longer. heard this from a ebonite pro shop friend of mine.. If this is true i'm getting one as soon as its available..

I loved the V2 Pearl exactly like it was. As far as I am concerned, there is no need to come up with a V2 clean that goes longer than  the V2 Pearl. I don't know why they discontinued the V2 Pearl. You know how the old saying goes, "If it ain't broke, don't fix it."

According to a representative (to remain anonymous) of one of the major distributors here in the west region (CA, NV, UT, AZ), the V2 Clean is Ebonite's effort to fill the "gap" between the V2 Pearl and the V2 Dry (weaker than the pearl, stronger than the dry).

I've heard good things about it from pro shop owners who have had the chance to throw it during demo days restricted to pro shop owners.
