What do you think is next for Ebonite
« on: July 01, 2013, 11:37:48 AM »
I'm thinking that before fall leagues start up that Ebonite will come out with a strong solid or hybrid ball in either the high performance or mid performance category. I would like to see a hybrid with the Champion core.

As long as Ebonite keeps making Track and C300 i will be happy.

TBH I think they need to figure out just exactly what Ebonite is these days. All the rest of their brands kind of all have their own identity except for Ebonite.

Columbia 300 puts out great looking balls with great names. You have the Eruption lines, the Smackdown, etc. that would appeal to younger bowlers.

Hammer has always been that company for people that wanted to be a bit different, and they do a pretty dang good job with marketing with video. While they have been venturing out into other lines, they always have those tie ins with " Hammers" that people love ( Nails, Wrench, etc.)

Track has the crazy number system, and its something different. When you see a 300c or whatever number it is, you know that person is throwing Track.

Ebonite just comes off boring and rather bland and just doesn't have a brand identity imo.
