We drilled our Ebonite NVS like we drill most of our Ebonite high performance test balls. The pin is located 5" from PAP (5 1/8" over and 1/8" up) with the mass bias at 45 degrees. For a better test against other balls recently released we left the finish alone.
We were a little surprised how clean the NVS was through the heads. We expected a little more roll or reaction a little earlier than we saw. Once it found some friction mid-lane and on the back end it had that true Ebonite ball motion. It went left with a good amount of hitting power left in it.
We may adjust the cover a little and update this review because we would like to see a little more movement earlier on from this ball but overall we think this is another successful ball release from Ebonite.

To give you some context, my league average is 168. So if I'm really concentrating, averaging in the 180's is not a reach. I used the NVS for the first time (had it drilled according to the instructions included with ball) two nights ago during sweeper night, and I cleaned up! I went 212, 245, 179. That 245 was a split, an EIGHT-bagger, and another split. (sigh) OK, so maybe not all 8 were textbook, but the first 5 were, followed by a brooklyn, one that almost guttered but snapped back hard, and another brooklyn. But heck, even a four bagger makes my game.
Will the ball soak up oil and stop performing after a while (as someone else wrote)? I have no idea. If it does, I'll report back. Until then, I'll be having the time of my life on the lanes. This ball has a mind of its own!

This review is not like a low average bowler complaining about a ball. I really want to help people who would like to buy this ball. I'm not saying this is bad ball. What I want to tell you is there is not much difference between the NVS, the Total NV and the Angular One. On typical house lane conditions, my Storm T-Road is a lot stronger than the NVS. I really want to say something to Ebonite staff please do not make false advertisements. I was Ebonite man but not any more.
