You got action, slizim!!Visualize it. I'd put my kicking ability up against anyone the same overall speed as me. I don't use any diamond systems.

Get your hands on all 3 of Little Joe Villalpando's videos.As the title indicates...I'm interested in the various preferred diamond banking systems.
My opinion is that you are paying a lot for a name.
If you are a collector, it's worth it.
If it's just for playing there are a ton of great production cues for under $2000.
And a lot of customs from lessor known makers for $2000 or less.
Thank you. I will look for it.One Rail, Two Rails, Three Rails and More: Kicks and Bank Shots Simplified and Explained

I rate this bridge a D…..the fitting of the bridge to a cue is not tight….the cheesy cotton lining frays and peels away and if the quality was better, it would be a terrific design but it’s very cheaply made & the quality is a F….it is retired and in my closet.the absolute best bridge design IMO

Smart decision. Try a Hoppe and take the bolt out, which creates some nice resonance. Traditional ones are nice too, but the Hoppes hit really nice.I agree. It’s worth it if it means enough to you. My decision was to forgo the new Tascarella and search for a good used example to play first. If I love it, I’ll go ahead and order a custom.

i agree with @jbart65It's not easy. I can visualize lots of banks now, even a lot of kicks, because I practice them.
But learning a diamond system first taught me how to regularly succeed in making banks and kicks. It was like giving me a alphabet to make words. Or a solid foundation to build a banking and kicking game.
I just spent the whole last month practicing kicking, at least an hour a day. That's it. I learned every system there is and practiced them all. Now I am trying to do it by feel. One drill I do is throw a single ball on the table and practice 1-, 2- and 3-rail kicks by "feel."
This week, I just started on banking. I am already a very good banker, but I will spend the next month just practicing banks. I already know all the systems. So I will work on both doing it by numbers and doing it by feel.
It would be great if they met on Day 6, but the odds are it won't happen. They met in the final at the Las Vegas Open and the crowd's excitement level would have been hard to top. Wishing both of these superstars the very best.Wonder what odds you would get on Filler/Gorst vs the field.
