MADMAN Single Layer B/Jump tips

i've got one on my JB cue. the thing makes controlling the CB real easy and jumps the ball with ease. i keep mine real flat so that might help with the CB control
i've installed several of these....i compared these to the popular leather b/j tip, the samsara tip my thoughts:
as hard as the samsara....comparable to phenolic, breaks and jumps well
consistent from tip to tip
glues, cuts, burnishes and shapes nicely on the lathe
cheaper than the samsara
the only negative i found was that the tip glazes over and gets slick quite fast and when it does that, it doesn't hold chalk as well. so you have to work the tip a bit more than with the samsara. it's still better than phenolic though. and cheaper than the samsara.
one request to b/j tip makers....instead of the usual 14mm size, make them in 15mm! there's a lot of b/j shafts that are 14mm in size and having a 15mm tip would be a lot easier to install.

I love these tips.
I've only had one person ask to have it removed and a samsara re installed
I think it may have been a touch softer than all of the previous madman jump break tips.
These are great and Juan is a great guy to deal with.
Madman is my standard break tip.
