    Future of cues and equipment

    I was pondering the future of cues and cue market. I have a couple of thoughts here. - Pockets are getting smaller, players need to get closer to the cue --> short cues are history and we are moving towards 59-60" cues. - Carbon fiber shafts are here to stay, but some players will stay with...

    30" Carbon Fibre shafts

    Well, a bit ashamed to admit it but probably going to switch to Low Deflection era in the near future and most likely going straight to CF shaft. But which makers offer them in 30" ?

    Mezz break shafts LD?

    I've never jumped the LD bandwagon but I have been breaking with a BK2 for a few years. I like the hit very much but I have trouble with 9ball cut break with English as I use backhand English exclusively. I have tried only a couple of Mezz break cues and started wondering if the different break...

    My 14.1 Finnish Championships match

    Here is a capture of my streamed Finnish Champs match. Loser qualification race to 75, winner of the match goes to L32 single elimination. Played quite well, not too many innings. Had difficulties with the new cloth and especially rails were killing me. That created a few weird end game...

    Practice your long shots

    Having trouble with long shots? Have you tried practicing playing 14.1 from the kitchen? It's meant for maybe B players and up all the way to the professional level. It's very simple yet very hard. You start off with setting a regular beside the rack break ball. Then you break shooting from the...

    New cloth and tapped table vs old cloth and bad rack?

    I've been playing 14.1 all my life on old cloths with bad and loose racks. I wonder how much I'm giving weight considering high runs to players who are constantly practising on a new cloth and a tapped table? Been watching a few videos here and I'm jealous how players get the whole rack wide...

    Run of 64 on Youtube.

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dKF0hllzu84 The first rack made a huge mistake of thinking the 1-ball was a great break ball, didn't bother measuring the angle. Still having problems with my new grip, not really comfortable with it yet and it shows a few times when I lose the CB. Also the...
