OK I know this from IQ's homepage. But I asked if anybody has personal experience with this new IQ quantum shaft and can compare it also to the IQ infinity shaft. Thanks in advance

Hi everybody, IQ cues from greece released a new type of wooden shaft recently, the so called "Quantum". Can anybody report some info about this shaft? Experiences? Comparison of Quantum and Infinity shaft types? Thanks in advance :-)

In physical theory it seems like that the cue speed is the more dominant factor than the cue weight, this means for example 10 % more cue speed is accelerating the white ball more than 10 % more cue weight. That's theory. I think the anatomy of players are even more dominant than cue speed or...

I think this is pure theory

That's the point!

To me the kielwood LD shaft from diveney is the best one. Very comparable to revo

Interesting!! The slow motion starting at 6'28'' shows a kind of bending which makes me understand why some of the very efficient low deflection shafts - Z-shaft from predator for example - can be played without compensating deflection, because there's zero deflection created although adding...

To me the best pool tip ever came from a professional trainer: stand absolutely still like a rock

May I ask how much the weight is being affected bei soaking a shaft? Weight of a shaft before and after soaking (+ drying of course). Many thanks in advance

Yes of course, but i want to feel the heqvy aluminium in my fingers and also like the semi glossy coating of an anodized aluminium.

Ignite 11,5 !!

This depends so strongly on the player's abilities, I would not say like this. Have a look for example on Shane van Boening: His cue is together with the extension 22 oz, and he does play every kind of shot from super soft to extreme speed. He can! This is an example, you'll find top skilled...

Mine is at 16,1 oz, total cue is 20,0 oz.

Yes definitely in general. But there might be limitations coming from the already existing construction of the related shaft.

Watch pool videos from pros, you'll understand that both is important.
