    Sterling Wave Case by JB, slowly shedding it's skin...

    haha, please don't apologise, I've taken my query away from this thread now, as it needs no further public attention. I know JB cases are the best, that's why I got one. It's just my luck that I got a 'Friday Job' .... a term we use which means that the workers are too busy trying to leave for...

    Sterling Wave Case by JB, slowly shedding it's skin...

    I really hope it's not a counterfeit, but if it is, then you know you're doing something right with your products! :) It's got all the right logos on it (zipper tags) and the actual construction of the case itself looks to be very well built (stitching) but anyways, I'll email you right away...

    Sterling Wave Case by JB, slowly shedding it's skin...

    I apologise if there's a misunderstanding, but as someone who doesn't know much about pool just yet, I thought I'd come onto AZB first, I didn't even know that Matt from Sterling existed until you informed me. I just know that JB is behind the cases and where else shall I go, but here. But now...

    Sterling Wave Case by JB, slowly shedding it's skin...

    This experience won't change my respect for John Barton, and his vision for quality. I'll be happy to keep supporting products designed and/or made by JB and will be more than happy to refer everyone to his creations. Nothing beats a product with passion behind it. I know this, as I'm a...

    Sterling Wave Case by JB, slowly shedding it's skin...

    Thanks for your prompt attention to this matter everyone, my impression was also of your above description. I was expecting a very tough and sturdy material, not something I'll have to think twice about throwing it on the back seat of my car whilst driving to my local pool hall. Regardless...

    Sterling Wave Case by JB, slowly shedding it's skin...

    Unfortunately I received no paperwork from the online store so I wouldn't know my warranty disclosure. The exterior is fragile, a small nick from a fingernail could possibly cause damage... The material itself feels and looks quite dry... I have a couch in my café with faux suede, and it...

    Sterling Wave Case by JB, slowly shedding it's skin...

    Hey everyone! So I've just received order of my new Sterling 'wave' 2x3 hard case, and I must say, I'm extremely impressed with the design, form and function of JB's design. HOWEVER, I'm slightly concerned about the integrity of the 'ultrasuede' material. Mine seems to be easy damaged, with...

    Is this considered a foul, that results in 'Ball in hand' ?

    Hey guys, I've been mad busy lately so I haven't been able to post as much, and I have yet to thank you guys for helping me out with my break, it's slowly getting better, harder and faster :) Anyways, got a real quick question here: When playing a legal shot, but then either your cue ball or...

    Where is the center of the CB?

    Great post, I've always found myself putting a slight spin on to left when I try to hit Centre ball, and I thought I was the only idiot not hitting straight :p To compensate, I've been hitting lower on the CB or a touch of right (I'm left handed) But usually I hit below centre line because I...

    What's your stance?

    Thanks for all the valuable information everyone! Here's a picture of my stance (and a random photo of my new Kamui Black MH Snooker tip, just to fill in the extra box....) So I stand about a shoulder width apart, then my right leg (as a lefty) steps forward about a good metre or so, then I...

    What's your stance?

    Thanks mate :) I never really felt 100% ... Until now that I've really did some reading on it. So it turns out I've been getting lazy on my stance and I was standing too far squared with the table, thus my hips (left) was getting in the way of my stroke arm.... and what was supposed to be a nice...

    What's your stance?

    Hey guys, just had a bummer of a week, Been dreadfully sick and I've only managed to play about 5 racks in the past week... Anyways, because of that, I've experienced another slump in my game, and now I'm not feeling comfortable in my stance anymore. I'm feeling all 'crossed up' and my shots...

    Pool vs. Darts.....holy cow! Why don't we have this??

    My crew play as much Darts as we play pool, (as I've installed a dart board in my cafe too lol) and let me tell ya; There's a certain type of excitement that goes along with Darts. Now, don't get me wrong, I love Pool as much as everyone here, and the excitement I get from pool can be...

    Aussie Pub Rules

    Hey guys, So the business I'm in attracts a lot of overseas casual employment seekers, and I've noticed as I take my staff out to play pool that, everyone is a bit confused by our 'pub' rules here. I personally play by 'International' rules (ball in hand, hit a rail, call pockets etc. ) but...
