- Stinger Navy

First Impressions
With the Stinger Navy, Ebonite brings a fascinating new development to market that impresses above all with its exceptional length and late reaction. Inside works the dynamic Stinger Core, which with a 2.55 RG and a 0.038 differential ensures a very clean motion through the front sections of the lane. The pearl reactive cover is specifically tuned to store the ball's energy extremely efficiently. The surface, with a Polished finish, supports this characteristic massively by letting the ball glide effortlessly through the heads without building friction early. Visually it is a real eye-catcher and immediately conveys that this model was designed primarily for later and sharper direction changes. The technical match between core and cover is extremely harmonious and purposeful here.
Comparison
Comparing the Stinger Navy with the Storm Tropical Surge, the glaring differences in backend reaction stand out immediately. The Storm Tropical Surge tends to read a bit earlier, while the Stinger Navy holds its energy a decisive fraction longer and then reacts far more aggressively to the dry area. That characteristic makes it the perfect complement in your arsenal when the Tropical Surge starts losing energy in the pocket or entering too flat. Although both balls are aimed at lighter oil patterns, the Stinger Navy offers a noticeably more dynamic angle. It is the ideal solution for situations in which the Tropical Surge no longer generates enough drive, since it creates the necessary entry angle.
On the Lanes
This ball shows its greatest strength once the lane has been played on a little and the transition has clearly set in. It needs a certain amount of friction in the backend to develop its characteristic hook, which produces maximum, explosive carry. As the boards in the front part of the lane dry up, it allows you to move systematically further inside and attack the pocket from a much deeper angle. It works excellently on medium to dry conditions and is an excellent choice if you are looking for a clean, responsive surface. With its forgiving nature on shots missed outside, it should keep your scores stable at a very high level even in the late stages of a tournament.
