I have an Ebonite Ripdtide that I have yet been able to use due to the lack of oil. I'd like to know what you all thought of it.
-
i shot my first 300 with a riptide! had to shine the pizz out of it but man what a roll that ball had! got mine drilled straight up, pin above fingers, cg in midline, 0 fingerweight, 0 sideweight. great ball. how's yours drilled?

your ball company sucks!
oh, and your ball club sucks even more!
-
I can understand not being able to use it. I had one and it hooked in air.

I tried one once. That thing hooked in my backswing! Once I finally got it out on the lane, it went a whole 30 ft before hooking into the left channel.
Glad it was my buddies ball and not mine. MAN this ball HOOKED!
--------------------
Doesn't it feel good to know that your on the right TRACK?

good stories. mine is drilled straight up, as well. although, I do believe that the lack of conditioning on the lane gives me a different reaction as to what you all are getting. I never once got more than 10 boards out of the ball. i came to the conclusion that due to the lack of oil, the ball was "dead" as it hit the lane. basically, it burnt up before approaching midlane, that's why is never reacted.
that's what I am guessing, though.
-
probably a good guess.
