I own a Chilton Flying Eagle. About the only thing its good for is maybe Flying from my back door into the dumpster.
What do you call a Boomerang that doesn't work?
A stick.

Thats one you can cross off your list. Its an over priced tomato stake.
I let a lot of players try the Eagle. They just shook their heads.
I tried a Lucasi Air Hog for a few jumps and was amazed at the ease it jumped. I'll try one of those next.

I still use the original Bungee and haven't tried anything better.
I have a cheap break/jump cue with phenolic tip from Dybior. It's OK for the money.
i just bought my ex girlfriends rhino break/jump. it actually breaks very well. jumps like any other cheap phenolic cue
I have a Jacoby that is nice, but a friend has a Pechare[sp] and I really like it.---Smitty
Sledgehammer Jump/Break for me.
Something called a 'Fatal Leap' by Mit. ...Very light with a rock hard tip. Seems to jump easily and predictably.
Took about 20 minutes of practice to go from being unable to jump (ever in my life!) to being able to jump predictably and effectively (see: Jump shots ...just how much power do you need? ).

Me to it works.
Steve Lomax. Best jump cue I've ever tried.
What kind of Jacoby ???
I have a Jacoby VIPER jump/break. Have seen several different jacoby's but never seen another Viper.
(Wow, never noticed before but Viper from Top Gun looks a bit like Earl Strickland.)

I've only got one,and it's the only one I've ever needed,it does it's job 100% if I do my part.
It's a Bill McDaniel butt,made to look like the front end of a Schon STL-1 including the steel joint,and it was made to be used with a Schon shaft. Pretty nice unstained birdseye for a jump too too :smile:.
The shaft is right at 20 years old,with Micarta ferrule and an early 90's synthetic Future tip. Tommy D.
