For friends not in the know, Dodong Diamond lives with the Francisco family in Gainesville, Virginia. He has his own room, which he also shares with teammate Dennis Orcollo when the world champion is in town. The two are family to the Franciscos. And yes, kabayan Ariel Roy spares no expense when it comes to equipment and training for Dodong. That is a fact!Name it, Dodong has it!
Moreover, Dodong changes his tips almost monthly! Yes, almost monthly because of the sheer amount of rigorous training he undergoes with his mentors, e.g., World Champion Dennis Orcollo.
Dodong uses Kamui soft and personally installs them using his Kuya Roy's $2,500 cue lathe at the latter's lovely home in Gainesville, VA. ️
In addition, he likes his tips rounded (bilog na bilog) - for shooting with english with little/less effort.
.
Dodong Diamond - one of the nicest guys in the pool circuit. Very respectful to everyone around him. Truly, good guys do not finish last. And I kid you not!
We are so happy and proud of your accomplishments, Champ Dodong and kabayan Ariel Roy Francisco, and to the entire team of Roy's Basement! Mabuhay kayo, mga kababayan ko!
