Thorsten is going to stink the place out.

I really hope one of those 3 do it.

The cloth is crazy fast on that table. Not just new-fast, but just-put-on- fast. Cloth on a finals table should at least be broken in. Everyone knows that fast cloth is basically unplayable until you've put a day or two of play on it. Having played a lot on 760 that I just installed, it's basically just nonsense for the first hour or two. The cueball is slipping everywhich way and holding onto spin in ways that are unnatural and alien to most players. I believe the cloth in that tournament was Championship brand, which I'm told is really fast.

Trying to hold the cueball from the 6 was just too difficult to do with that angle, he should have taken his medicine and let the cueball travel.

Alot of benefits.........pleeeenty

The reason why the whole pool industry is much better right now is purely due to new technology, one of those is CF....not to mention balls, equipment, cloth.

But CF has lot to do with it, in the past 80s and 90s you got a handful of players, now you have hundreds who can actually win at any given moment...

What performance benefit? I do think of many, CF alone can assist players in their shot timing for some reason. I can't put my hand on it, but I truly believe this....without the players realize it, they will have a consistant shot timing with cf versus wood...and this alone can push your level waaaaay higher than it used to be....

Because Timing is everything in pool, once you figure this hidden treasure (Not hidden for everyone, but many) - then your pool game will push up, way up...but the thing is, even if you realize the timing and understood your own timing, you can still do a bad timing every once and awhile even if you force yourself to play in your timing, sometimes you mess it up, with wood you'll mess it up plenty more. CF makes you more consistant with it, as to the why and how? I dont know maybe its due to how the material is constructed or the weight of it.....even if the wood shaft weights the same, it just doesnt feel the same and you'd mess out on your timing way more with wood than a carbon fiber material.

I myself did notice many pro's are playing like robots now adays with them CFs, lots of ppl keep saying this.... do you know why? Cause the friggin CF made them play more constitant timing, whereas in the past you see the wooden players keep having a character, a style, so to speak.....but do you know what that leads to? LOTS OF MISSES...

Thats why peeps dislike now adays robotic game, cause lets be honest its boring....but in the same time IT IS WHAT MAKES U GREAT, why?? cause your timing will remain the same, yes boring, yes robotic...but better results. Switch to CF now before its too late, you're living in the past,,,,you're a Nokia flash light mobile guy who dislike smartphones because theyre too clumsy right? well keep using nokia if you wish, its all on you.
