Your New Hybrid
The GB4 Hybrid is another staple in my bag! To ensure I have something different for transition in tournaments, I drilled this one 70 x 5 x 35, different from my 55 x 4.5 x 30. This has allowed me to use this during late games of tournaments when everyone is standing way left, I have been able to stand 5-10 more boards right of them with this ball. This ball clears the fronts really well and with a quick response on the backend, but with enough continuation to carry the ugly 10 pins. This ball is really great for any bag, especially for a tournament bag.

It's a Game Breaker!
Ebonite's latest release, the GB 4 Hybrid maybe my favorite GB4, to date.
Definitely fits right in between the GB4 solid and pearl versions. Goes a little longer than the solid with more rounded motion. But, not as long as the pearl, which has a more angular motion.
The GB4 Hybrid with the added HK22 base, makes this purple/black beauty stand out in the mid performance category and on the lanes, too.

GB4 Hybrid
Game breaker series continues to live up to its name. Wrapped with HK22 this ball is super good. Still pretty easy through the front and has a very quick response to friction. Lots of motion down lane. Performs well in medium volume of oil. Great for any players bag. Tournament players are going to love this one.

Exceptional Ball Shape and Motion!
It has been a very long time since I have thrown an Ebonite ball. Hybrid balls have worked incredible for me in the past and I had heard many great things about the Game Breaker line of bowling balls. I have to say that I am very impressed with the GB4 Hybrid. This ball has exceptional hook ability. With the added HK22 additive to this ball, the backend ball reaction is just incredible! I put a basic leverage drill layout in this ball. It allows me to move more left and open the lanes up, knowing the ball will recover. With my ball speed, I altered the surface a little to have the ball read more in the mid-lanes. When this ball sees friction, it responds with dynamic ball shape and motion which makes pins just fly everywhere. The big core with the HK22 additive makes this ball an incredible choice for all levels of bowling and is a must have in your bag. This ball for me works on heavier volumes of oil with my surface adjustment. Without altering the surface, this ball is very versatile and can be used on various lane of conditions.

GB4 Hybrid
The New Ebonite Game Breaker 4 Hybrid just might be the best Game Breaker I have thrown thus far and I've had them all. For me, the Game Breaker Line has been the BENCHMARK of consistency. As a Pro Shop Operator, the Game Breaker Line gives the consumer a pretty big bang for their buck. The SYMMETRICAL Hybrid along with HK22 is a winner!!!! The ball clears the front of the lane with ease and the backend motion is impressive. This is a must have Ladies and Gentleman!!!! Contact your Pro Shop Operator ASAP. Your not going to want to miss out on this one.

GB4 Hybrid
Game Breakers continue to dominate the mid-performance category, and the new GB4 Hybrid might be the most
exciting release in this line yet. Adding the HK22 base to a hybrid Game Breaker means versatility and strikes – lots of them. This is a great benchmark ball. you can pretty much play in the track and it seems like every time i move in, it hooks more. very clean down lanes too

Ebonite GB4 Hybrid
I am a big fan of 2.48 & 0.048 RG & Diff numbers. I've liked every ball I've drilled that started with these numbers and the GB4 Hybrid is no exception. The polish on this hybrid allows it to get through the front part of the lane easily while the HK22 additive and big core allow it to stand up and hit down lane. I think this ball will be good on a variety of conditions.
