REVIEW:
I think we are all excited to try Ebonite's newest release considering
the current string of excellent product coming from them!
For the reaction I was looking for the pearlized cover on the Total NV
and the earlier layout I selected was a perfect match. Very clean thru the
front part of the lane, even on 2nd shift.
With this layout the backend wasnt nearly as violent as the design of the ball
might suggest but considering the pattern and time of night I wanted it for this works great. It allows me to take my hand out of the ball with little axis tilt and go down the outside with a pearl shell ball and yet get it to
roll a tad bit earlier. Definately doesnt have the characteristics of my
Ones (One, Infinite) which seem to be more arcing on the backend and not as
continuous.
Compared to my Angular One
(4-5" Pin, 4" Pin, MB Above Thumb, No Xhole) *MY* AO rolls longer and
made a more aggressive backend motion. I would attribute this to simply
the layout on the balls.
