i'm listening to scott frost and boyes commentating the battle of the bull, and young riku romppanen is playing. apparently he's grown a foot or so the last years. scott says he's around 6'6". made me think that among the top pros over the years, has there been anyone that tall? i don't think kaci is? was buddy hall?

in snooker there's ricky walden but he got back problems fairly soon into his career. being that tall seems like a disadvantage

You also have the InFuze shafts, there is one branded Lucasi made of regular wood and one that is branded Pure X that is made with kielwood.
I have the Kielwood version, plays nice, low defletion but not as low as my SMO CF shaft. My shaft is a bit on the heavy side, I understand that it's not the standard, I wish it was a bit lighter.

INFUZED Shafts

Crafted using a unique fusion of carbon fiber and traditional materials like maple or Kielwood, these shafts redefine performance standards.

It seems that most of the custom cues I've hit with tend to be stiffer. Are there any cue makers that make a cue with softer, more subtle or buttery hit? Also what shafts have you played with that you recommend for a softer or whippier hit? Thanks in advance.

pearls for swine with that audience... but it is a surprising stat. i guess he hasn't played much lately and has been selective in what tournaments he plays the last couple of years, but still it's surprising.
