Balabushka Premium Performance Chalk

No it is NOT! In fact, I talked with the manufacturers today at the Balabushka Cue Co. The chalk is NOT made by Longini (which would be Japan and not China)! It is a totally different formula made by the Balabushka Cue Co.; designed to cling better on the cue...and, not on your hands! It is a superior chalk to Blue Diamond or any other popular chalk! IMO, it is comparable (if not better), to Kamui chalk...at almost 1/10 the price! Try a box, I'll refund your money upon return if you don't like it. BTW, where is Kamui chalk made?

It is made in Japan.
I can not wait to try Balabushka chalk.
Tried Kamui - LOVED it but, at that price and the size of the chalk - i will pass.
This is a copy of the e-mail I received from the makers of Balabushka chalk right off of their website... I asked about the chalk AND their cues...
The formula for Balabushka Chalk is different than Longoni. The two perform in a similar way and are close however Balabushka Chalk is slightly more clean/less dusty and sticks a little better.
It is made in China. The Cues are made is Taiwan.

Anyone else want to do their homework before they speak? Or you can contact them off their website and ask them yourself. This is the email address I got the response from. Robert Mallen <robert@balabushkacues.com>.. So go right ahead and check. The guy asked a specific question that was "ignored".

The chalk arrived, well packaged-thank you.
Tried it-liked it. Played a little tournament match. Gave up 3 going to 8. Won 7 straight games. Won match 8-4.
That was not me. I'm thinking -That was the chalk.
The real me lost the next match, using Majic chalk.
This may be the best chalk in the world
