Break/Jump Cue?

I’ve tried a lot of jump break cues to simplify my case and I’ve never found anything that I liked. They either break good and jump like shit or vice versa.. the only one that was relatively decent was the old sledge Hammer jump break cues.
I’ve said this before about break cues. I find they are over rated. I carry one of course but when I had a tip fly off one I felt I was breaking just as good with a house cue. The biggest waste of money I think I’ve bought in 35 years of playing was my bk rush. I’m anal so I like everything to match but my rush doesn’t break any better then my bk3 lol not even a little bit.

Good point, and I hear the same thing from others, if you want the best of both worlds, by individual break jump cue and individual jump cue. Right now in my bag I have some pretty good sticks, my playing cue, a 3 piece cf Dominus jump cue, and a Cuetec break cue with an ice breaker tip. All three of my particular sticks are high-end, and function extremely well. I guess I just wanted to consolidate a bit and have just two sticks to do all the tasks. Sometimes I forgo attempting a jump shot because it is a bit of a pita to haul out my 3 piece jumper. I went out on a limb a bit and purchased this yesterday online:

This four piece break/jumper can be manipulated to any length and appears to be of good quality being entirely carbon fiber. It is also forged carbon fiber, maybe just the shaft, but I'm not sure how much difference that will make either. I am optimistic, and hope the cue matches my optimism
