Skid-Flip
« on: July 14, 2009, 05:37:57 AM »

Which ball in the Ebonite family (Columbia, Hammer & Ebonite) would you consider to have the most skid/flip reaction?

Thanks for the help.

Maybe the Loud Noize? The Ebonite Tornados were always horribly skid/flippy for me.

Hot Sauce and Burn, from what I've seen.

Track is the Ebonite skid/flip line.  --  JohnP

Black Widow Pearl for me anyway. It was an over/under nightmare for me when I first got it, now with some wear and the polish knocked off (4000) it's still skid/flip for me but not to the point of being uncontrollable on most house patterns.

Primary the Kinetic line was this.  Apparently, the new 715 is supposed to flip harder than any ball in the Kinetic line.  The specs on the ball suggests this, but I've not gotten to throw it.

Traditionally Track's signature is skid/flip. You're in luck, they just happen to be in the Ebonite family. Not sure on what equipment in the new releases fit this bill, but the Kinetic series was definitely skid/flip.
