The Kamui Clear, Rhino Time Crystal and Caiden Fighter have flat glueing surfaces that install well without any sanding.

I am an amateur at installing tips and was unaware that you didn't have to sand. I wouldn't mind trying to install tips without sanding. I presume you only wipe the tip with alcohol, dry, and superglue. Correct?

How did poster LDMitchell find this out? Did the manufacturer state this? Did you check tips and found this to be true?

The Kamui Clear and the Rhino Time Crystal tips have a plastic bottom but not the Caiden Fighter. If you have had good luck installing Kamui Clear without sanding? That is better than me who did sand and it came off.

I'm looking forward to your video D. D. but later.
I've always felt....being frozen they became ''one ball''.
Yrs ago tho gambling, many accepted this shot only if you shoot a cut angle.

First two days of WPBA are seldom worth watching.

WPBA is my preferred.

I have gray clothe on my home table and use the green TAOM V10 and won't let anyone use anything but that on my table. It doesn't leave a mess at all and I've being using it for a while now. You'll be totally fine. Don't switch to Masters or Silver Cup gray chalk or something like that.

I like your suggestion that Boyes and McMullan should apologize. I realize color commentary has to be spontaneous and occasionally off-the-wall but it also means they should apologize when they call someone a doofus when, actually, they are the dooffuses.

I like the longer video because I beter understand the push/frozen-ball rules as opposed to the bits I learned off AZ and Reddit where I wasn't aware (like the referee?) that I could hit with abandon at a declared cue-ball-frozen-to-object-ball.

Because the rules say it isn't? From WPA 6.7:

"However, if the cue ball is touching an object ball at the start of the shot, it is legal to shoot towards or partly into that ball (provided it is a legal target within the rules of the game) and if the object ball is moved by such a shot, it is considered to have been contacted by the cue ball."

Figures. Cheap fix if you ask me. Other jurisdictions define (as well as Dr. Dave to an academic degree) frozen cue balls as single entities. Hence the no push logic. A shot like Ponger's with a subsequent legal hit <by the cue ball> should be the only allowed solution.

Thanks for digging that rule up by the way.
