FR57 by Triple Sixty

Ordered one from Seyberts on Thursday and rcvd it on Friday with free shipping.
Used it today for about 2.5 hours. First impression is I really like it. Super solid hit w/out the REVO "tink" sound (although that doesn't bother me). Very low deflection w/out so much cueball swerve that causes me problems with my REVO. Fedor must like to use a looong bridge, because the taper on this thing is crazy.
Is it worth 700? Almost certainly not, unless I win some tournaments with it that I might not have with my other shafts. But if I enjoy playing pool more, then what the hell.
I will post an update if my opinion changes

Waxing the cue ball? WTF is Kaci talking about now?

spray inside of glove, i guess. or your pockets. it will transfer.

but in my second paragraph, i meant that if you want to emulate tourney conditions you can spray the cloth uniformly with silicone.

Always wondered about this.

Are you misting the cloth with a spray or applying with a cloth?

Any particular product? A dry silicone spray?

I think the better shot was to play higher on the 8 and play the thin cut up and down to the 9.
Agreed that the other choice was also reasonable, but not better. Finding the gap that Kledio found was pretty unlikely. Passively accepting the eight would have required a challenging shot from the eight to the nine.

Not terribly important to decide which was the better choice, but Kledio made a very reasonable choice here, made a solid stroke, and got really unlucky.

Biado has had an impressive, while still a bit perplexing career. I don't think he has ever been the top Filipino player, but yet he has become one of the top Filipino tourney performers. His technique is a little wonky, with his shoulder over the shot line, but he makes it work. In my mind, he's among the elite when it comes to imaginative pattern play. Still -- few mention Biado when discussing the best in the world. He really has figured out how to perform his best when the camera is on. Maybe we all need to give him a little more credit.
