I've owned both and I've never looked back after using Alex Bricks jump break Dyamond wood. They don't have the vibration like a BK3 has either, when you break with the Alex Brick you feel the contact but not the vibration which I like it feels better. I have a white diamond tip and I can break with control and squat my cue ball and get a really good spread or i can crush the balls about 29 mph.
