Immensely enjoying the World 10 Ball Championship matches. Watching a few of Naoyuki Oi's matches I see that he sort of jumps at the balls during his break shop with both feet coming off the floor. No foul is called. Does note one foot need to be in contact with the floor during a shot? What am...

Hello pool friends, I have been away for the pool scene for a long time, but recently started playing (if you can call it that) again. I am amazed at the vast amount of information available online concerning pool (maybe too much?). Anyway here is my question: If phenolic tips are illegal...
