u lit a fire and i must say it was glorious

of course the whitten will cost more. cost of labour and materials. cant compare like for like. that said, i love my jb a little more than my whitten. the whitten is more luxurious and better looking, but the JB is better for everyday use.. for me at least. wish i could have the aesthetics of...

I think this is a good point worth highlighting. China/Taiwan used to be fairly insular, only appearing in regional or WPC. But they’re making trips out more frequently than before (if the money is good of course). The playing field is generally getting tougher, but great for spectators!

One thing I find strange about these sort of posts/threads seems to be that many insist that Shane is clearly better than X or Y, in this case, Chang. Nobody is arguing that Shane isn't awesome. He is one of the world's best and he's definitely a HOF candidate. But many fervent Shane...

The spartan race of pool eh?

chang is also new to revo/low deflection shafts

Not sure if it's pro taper but probably it's marketed towards Chinese 8 ball players. According to the product specs, it's 12.9mm stock and there's a 20cm carbon fibre insert, a la Mezz.

I think it’s just that there are enough Chinese in the mainland who are willing to pay more, or so they think. I have no idea what is the response like for this cue.

You might need to have an account to access these taobao links so I just included the pics here. The cues start from approx USD3650 or so depending on your shaft choice. Really expensive With wrap...

It’s available for the Chinese market. But considerably more expensive

if filler-wu happens it will be a pretty exciting final with two fearless attacking players (for that matter Chang as well). If they hold their nerve we'll be in for a real spectacle

think of it as double elimination being just another form of the group stage? I know u are just critical of the format but from the looks of it the tournament so far has been pretty exciting

i've been having it ever since i got the revo when it first came out. but i didnt really think too much about it cos i thought that it was normal.

I switched from the victory soft to a precision soft and it took a lot of the power away. So I can attest this helps... at least in my case anyway. I actually had gotten used to the extra juice and missed it tremendously. I have a lot more control now but honestly I think I rather have the...

Yup if nothing is done now to turn people on to custom cues, it's going to go the way of the dodo. relegated to fancy handmedowns

Just to double up on pwd72s' elegant point earlier with a quote from Joe Bonamassa, guitarist extraordinaire and prominent vintage electric guitar collector known for acquiring rare vintage instruments and daring to actually play them on the road: "(So) you have to enter into that deal knowing...

Most likely. Will be surprised if he turned up at a high stakes event with a new cue. Just very curious in the event that he joins Chang in the tech shaft camp, would this have any bearing on how the Taiwanese view LD cues?

Ok just found out a predator rep gave him one to use so I guess he’s just giving it a try

Seen at a Chinese 8-ball tourney. Which seems to look like the Panthera 3-2 Anybody knows if he’s being sponsored or is he just giving it a try?

if you can pull back 10-12 inches and hit straight consistently with this method i think your set up/mechanics are pretty decent to begin with...
