    14.1

    I was just thinking the other day watching an old Mika match if the guy is still able to win an event. I don't recall him winning anything recently, and it seems he's fallen off his game to an extent, long behold he wins 14.1 lol.

    Tried it on the exact same butt (the roadline) felt so dead vs a better predator butt.

    You are aware it's subtitles right? How can you possibly be fluent in mandarin and canto and say Chinese isn't a single language. Have we all forgotten difference between dialect and language. While you may have a point that there is a lot of slang in canto that's not part of written Chinese...

    More Affordable Predator Revo Cues

    I picked up 2 revo p3s when I got mine. One started shrooming well before the other. It's those victory tips they are just garbage imo. I replaced mine with a kamui ss with the local cue guy no issues.

    More Affordable Predator Revo Cues

    Think your over simplifying this shaft a lot. I've tried those cuetec and no it doesn't hit the same. In terms of feel I don't feel they are more hollow than regular predator shafts. I like a very stiff and firm hit and no shaft hits as firm as the revo. You want a more organic experience then...

    Oh man I've been looking for this SP. If i hadn't been a revo convert I would grab this for sure. That is one of the best looking schons for sure.

    More than happy to have paid the extra for the p3 revo. These are ugly as sin. They should of just made a black butt and called it. I use my revo shaft on a black p3 wrap less 80% of the tme. It's a good match. A black ikon like butt would of been much better.

    This seems to be addictive....

    Having gone thru 314 pre cat, 314 cat, 314-2 , 314-3, Ob classic, ob classic plus. I would highly vote for the ob classic + over the 314-2. Same defelection but a MUCH better shaft that's better made. In my opinion the 314-3 strives to be what the ob classic + is, yet is still a very very close...

    A cue is a tool, once you start buying all these different cues you may seem to forget that. Find the tool that does it's function, that you like the feel off. The rest is not that important. Cue collecting is a different world altogether. I've tried many top production cues and some well known...

    For custom cue owners.

    Schon shafts are so damn whippy. I love schon cues but the shafts I've never ever liked. That's the reason I'd take a mezz over a schon. I have both and the shaft is the winner. If we were talking butt alone it be schon any day over mezz.

    Just wanted to add my experience translating the script is that it does require some pool jargon in the respective language. My wife was born and grew up in China for 30 years, and she could not do the translation to Chinese completely, as she doesn't know the pool terms such as body English...

    A little insight. Written Chinese is the same regardless of dialect. The official dialect of china is Mandarin. Chinese is the language. What you refer to are dialects; of which China has hundreds. Not just Mandarin and Cantonese. It's only those are much more common than others. I myself...

    Break cue/Jump cue vs break jump

    The main benefit of the predator air vs a jump u break down is the length offered. With a regular break jump, you have just 1 length for your jump. For shots where the object ball is further away, having a longer jump cue helps me, vs if the object ball is closer I break it down further for the...

    Jump Help

    I highly suggest u go cheap on the jumper. Proper form and execution is very important. No magical jump cue will make you jump better. You buy a cheap jump for like 50 bucks. If it works out for you then by all means get another. No need for an expensive jump cue. I have a lomax one and yes...

    Custom vs Production Jump Break

    I don't think custom cues do anything better than a production cue. If you want to argue craftsmanship etc, then that's different. I have a bk3 and predator jump cue. I also have had a gilbert break jump, and a lomax jump cue. Do the customs perform better not 1 bit. I am not a great jumper, and...
