Ebonite The Great One Bowling Ball

The One Series Keeps Getting Greater

About The Great One

The One series just keeps getting greater. After decades of delivering proven performance, Ebonite continues to raise the bar with The Great One. It brings the value Ebonite is known for, delivering top-tier performance without the top-tier price tag, and it is designed to stand alone in the Ebonite line, giving bowlers even more of what they expect from The One series.

The Great One pairs the proven Centrex Symmetrical Mass Bias core with the HK22C2 GB 15.1 Solid coverstock at a 500, 1000, 3000 Siaair Micro Pad finish, with DynamiCore for more durability and hitting power. The result is strong mid-lane and backend motion, with the kind of continuation that will remind fans of the famous One Reverb. In Purple / Violet / Teal, this ball is built to make a big statement on medium to oily lanes.

Understanding the Ebonite Centrex Symmetrical Mass Bias and Ebonite HK22C2 GB 15.1 Solid Reactive

Ebonite built The Great One for strong mid-lane and backend motion on medium to oily lanes. Specifically, the Centrex Symmetrical Mass Bias core runs a low RG with a strong differential and a defined mass bias (2.466 RG, .056 differential, .027 intermediate differential at 15 lb), so it revs early and keeps driving through the pins, while the HK22C2 GB 15.1 Solid cover at a 500, 1000, 3000 Siaair Micro Pad finish reads the mid-lane with traction to spare. DynamiCore adds durability and hitting power. The 13 and 12 lb weights use a dedicated core (2.597 RG, .041 differential at 13 lb). The full per-weight numbers are listed below.

The Proven One-Series Engine, With Continuation to Spare

At the heart of The Great One is the Centrex Symmetrical Mass Bias core, the engine behind The One series. At 15 lb it measures a low 2.466 RG, a strong .056 differential, and a .027 intermediate differential, numbers that produce heavy flare, an early rev, and the strong mid-lane read The One series is known for. The mass bias gives it a defined preferred spin axis, so layout has a real influence on how early and how hard it reads.

That shape is what delivers the backend motion and continuation that will remind fans of the famous One Reverb. Rather than rolling out, The Great One keeps driving through the pins. The 13 and 12 lb weights carry a dedicated core tuned for those weights (2.597 RG, .041 differential, .014 intermediate differential at 13 lb) so lighter-weight bowlers get the same shape.

A Strong Solid Cover at a Sanded Finish for Medium to Oily Lanes

Wrapping the Centrex core is the HK22C2 GB 15.1 Solid coverstock. The HK22 base with the C2 additive package is the strongest traction formula in the Brunswick family, and the GB 15.1 solid version is built to find the oil in the mid-lane and turn it into a strong, continuous motion. It ships at a 500, 1000, 3000 Siaair Micro Pad finish, a sanded box surface that reads the lane early without being so dull it burns up.

With DynamiCore in the outer core, The Great One also hits harder and holds up longer than a conventional build. Keep the 3000 Micro Pad box finish for the strongest read on medium to oily lanes, take it lower for the heaviest volume, or polish it up at your pro shop for a cleaner, longer look as the lanes transition.
