THAT CAN'T BE RIGHT!? | Ebonite Fireball Purple/Gold

This ball is gifted. Normally, a ball that is strong on the backend will average around 7 degrees of impact angle. This one did that often except for one shot in particular. This is the highest impact angle I ever remember recording in the history of using SPECTO! The Fireball Purple/Gold is one to keep an eye on for "mid-performance".

With the help of SPECTO data, it'll help tell the story about reaction shape, overall hook and continuation through the pins. Here are the SPECTO data points used and definition of each term:
Launch Speed - Speed measured off the hand.
Entry Speed - Speed measured at the pins. (What you'd see on your home center MPH screens)
Rev Rate - Revolutions Per Minute (RPM)
Launch Angle - The angle the ball traveled the first 10 feet.
Break Point Position - Board at which the ball was at its outermost position.
Total Hook - Total number of boards the ball crosses on the way to the pins.
Hook Power - Number of boards the ball hooked based from the True Breakpoint.
Entry Angle - The angle of the ball between 51 and 55 feet.
Impact Angle - The angle of the ball between 57 and 59.5 feet.
Pin Deck Exit - Ball position at the end of the pin deck.

Storm releases a weak Lightning Blackout at a much higher price, while this ball seems a bit stronger than that at a lower price point - but I bet the Storm ball gets more attention and praise. We need more bowling ball reviewers that aren't brand-specific to see a better comparison. The Hype and Luke Rosdhal can only do so much! Thanks for your take though Nick 😁

[@b.r.fowler785]

It’s not fair that Ebonite would release an updated Fireball when I haven’t even picked up the first one yet! Also…Randy Pedersen, meet BrunsNick, the _real_ 8-pin King.

[@daveconatty9940]

Lakers collapsing in the playoffs is my favorite time of year!

[@scenicmyles]

I probably would have overlooked this ball if not for your video, that was a great, great demo, you definitely put this ball on my radar, very smooth with decent backend drive for a mid range ball, thank you.

[@user-gt1wr1vh3i]

Nice one Nick! Ebonite still comes out with consistent, mid range reaction bowling balls which are good for the average bowler, which is most of us. 👍

[@AndrewWarrenPatriotsfan]

A good fireball whiskey would have been great for this video. Nice review for the Ebonite Fireball. I'm with you. I'm speed dominate, too.

[@MsEeyore14]

Could we please get ball videos on house as well as sport patterns for real bowlers thanks Nick appreciate what you do

[@shaneimler9328]

Still rocking the 3.0. Shot 1030 for a four game set a couple days ago. I have however been looking for a good "mid range" ball to go between my plastics and my 3.0. Need something for the third game.

[@fracturedbynature5408]

Cheers

[@timriecken5453]

Halloween shirt idea for u... bowling pin coffin with an eight ball in the middle 😉 I would def get one.

[@ryancambre7940]

Seems like it would be a good comparison on a used pattern with the artic vibe

[@johnsilerio2407]

I have the original. Was going to get another one and drill it differently. May as well just get the stronger surface one.

[@quinnkeating8431]

I'm really tempted to buy this ball as part of an arsenal including the Brunswick Beyond Infinity and the Track Cypher. I keep coming back to the Fireball as something for lighter conditions.

[@brunsnick]

It’s a good choice for what you have in the bag and where you want it to fit.

[@amazingmordecai2661]

Yooo nick! My man! Favor please?? Can you please do a comparison video between troublemaker pearl and the new chill?

[@tylerfenwick8291]

Wish I could give you an extra like for the Lakers comment.

[@brandonbowser5487]

i wonder what really makes the driff in a ball the cover or core? i have the og trouble maker and its a ok core but i feel the cover is what makes it work as well . ofc i could be way wrong lol

[@mattyhayes3201]

Noice!!

[@glenandbrandy]

I had the TRUE OG Fireball! Late 80s, when the oil was too short & light for the Columbia 300 Blue Dot, I had a triple Turtle Wax coated & 2 cycle Lustre King Brunswick Fireball! Black, red, hard rubber, & would skid on glue. 😎🎳 Keep up the fun reviews #8pinKING !

[@brunsnick]

That’s cool! 8 quarters in the ol Lustre King made it shiny

[@john-yvindhafeld2702]

Would like to see you guys try to put 2 cores in a bowling ball, like separate them into 2 small ones.

[@Jesusfanatic0711]

Been done before with the storm hyroad small ball shape up top and flip block on the bottom totally separate

[@spgspg6503]

8PK!!!

[@CrazyBaker1969]

Nick have you adjusted the surface yet? If so does the ball still retain the angularity? Thanks

[@brunsnick]

Looked good without surface so I haven’t touched it. With surface it could probably handle that deeper inside angle better.

[@johnoteri4387]

Nick you seemed to like the original fireball better..

[@purpleclock_njkim]

hey, i’m a pretty average two-handed bowler (about 100s to 110s). i’m considering expanding my arsenal sometime soon since the only ball i own as of today is a tzone i got in ~2021. what are some balls yall recommend i invest in?

[@davidmalkinson2128]

Hi nick can u do a competent with the arctic vibe and fire ball they seam like the same sort of ball and would be interesting to see if there any difference between them etc thanks Dave I am looking at buying the arctic vibe myself as I have a black widow 3.0 hazmat and then I am looking at a vibe as another ball down 👍

[@joelmesa7785]

I wonder if it's similar to the hammer fugitive pearl?

[@andrewweltlich9065]

Can you explain what GB11.2 means. How does Ebonite coverstock naming work?

[@brunsnick]

As far as I know, higher the number, the more aggressive and earlier reading it’ll be. So 10.7 will be a step down in strength than 11.2.

[@ryancambre7940]

Which would be your choice for the burn in a league or tournament setting the ocean vibe or fireball? Looking for a dryer lane ball to complete my three ball collection currently have the legion solid for heavy and widow 2.0 hybrid for beginning of transition

[@brunsnick]

I’d go Ocean Vibe, something non HK22 for the burn.

[@LogicalQ]

I don’t need to leave more 9 pins than I already do

[@brianschumaker5912]

I like your shirt. But there is another person who claims your title.... JR Raymond. I sugest you two have a bowl off and we will SEE who wins the 8 pin king! I liked the video you did with Charles on "The Hype" with the bowling bingo.

[@brunsnick]

Thanks! I think if we tried to leave 8 pins it’ll never happen. It’s like trying to watch a pot of water boil.

[@dennismcclintock3154]

I have a question how does this ball stack up/ compare to the Endeavor and the Kaboom just wondering . Their coming out with all this good stuff in my opinion giving the other Big Dogs a run for their money for a lot less moolah

[@brunsnick]

Similar most to Kaboom. Endeavor is stronger for me off the spot.

[@drjandtex]

.how does this compare with the hammer arctic vibe? I am a rec bowler in a house with dry lanes.. low rev rate and low speed (13mph) stroker style. Fav balls are outer limits, infinity, sneak attack solid. Also have tundra fire and a spare ball... Looking for something that will do better on the dry.

[@brunsnick]

This would be fairly similar to Arctic Vibe. If you have Tundra Fire and need something less than that even, might want to look at Twist or Rhino, maybe even a shiny NU Blue Hammer.

[@drjandtex]

@@brunsnick Thanks again... you sold me on the NU Blue Hammer in your review of that one... I think it will help me play straighter with less over hooking on the burnt up house shots! Keep up the great work!

[@chrismagory9423]

I’m a senior low speed bowler average 205 looking to go 14lbs. Was wondering if this ball is just a beginners ball or truly a really good piece

[@brunsnick]

It’s a good ball, not really a beginner ball. Plenty of hook potential and core strength for house patterns.

[@timwatson3192]

And there it is. 8 pin

[@ryancambre7940]

Is this gonna be a stronger cover than the artic vibe?

[@brunsnick]

Seemed to pick up a bit earlier but that could be some of the core at work too.

[@johnmaudsleyjr3046]

Can you compare DV8 Trouble maker inciter max continuation, Hustle M+M, Fireball Purle/gold, I challenge you anytime

[@timothypope5300]

What exactly do you mean by yourself being speed dominate?

[@TrevorPrinceMusic]

I'm a speed dominate player. How to explain this is I'll use myself. I launch the ball at 19.8-20 mph off my hand. My rev rate is around 320-330. For me to be balanced or what they call matched my revs need to be around 400. A rev dominate player for example EJ tackett, he launches at 17-18 with a rev rate around 500+. If ej had my rev rate he'd be closer to a match player.

[@brunsnick]

I tend to throw it with more speed and my rev rate isn’t enough. Sometimes I’m matched when I move in and slow down but for the most part 18-19mph 350rpm.

[@jonathan10pin]

I have a challenge for you. You should strip the whole lane and take all the oil out of it, and try to hook the whole lane.🤣

[@brunsnick]

Wouldn’t work unfortunately. Ball would chirp and roll forward immediately.

[@TheycallmeRpCratchet]

Parker Bohn III and his son have done this on their channel and tried to beat eachother. You will see that it is impossible to throw even a mild hook the ball just goes in the opposite gutter.

[@dmo8921]

While wearing golf shoes😂

[@TrevorPrinceMusic]

You can't even do that with a plastic spare ball lol.

[@MsEeyore14]

Literally looks like the old animal😂 my god get different

[@billem3085]

Nick, did you ever think the 8 pins are because the machine isn't calibrated properly?

[@jasonboness3871]

The more I bowl, the more I understand that bowling is luck. #eightPinKing

[@brunsnick]

If I didn’t have bad luck, I’d have no luck at all.

[@damarapoledna3636]

I think that I could give you a run for your money on those eight pin leaves 😶

[@brunsnick]

Bring it

[@jax346]

Too early @ my Lakers

[@ScottyThompson-lt7wl]

Cool video tech bowling ball ebonite fireball bowling ball purple gold with hk22 technology and dynamic core technology in the bowling ball more strike and spares hitting power at time brunsnick

[@cornwatchofficial]

u leave 8 pins bc u hit the pocket high

[@brunsnick]

Hmm

[@MsEeyore14]

Also why in the world is your ring finger two full inches lower than your middle how is that even remotely comfortable

[@user-gt1wr1vh3i]

It's a "Sargent" drilled style for folks who have had previous wrist or hand issues.
