EZ-Jumper Question

I have lots of gizmos but I don't really understand the using of the EZ-Jumper... They make a ball on a tripod for elevating your bridge for jumping that I would assume to be superior since you will be forming a closed bridge during use.... The EZ=Jumper does appear to be over 2 balls high so I do understand the trick they are marketing but once attack angles are learned is there a need for the product????

I don't believe the ball on a tripod is legal because you are using something to raise and support your hand versus a different kind of bridge device...... That I do know from the BCAPL rulebook.
 
Thanks moos... if that is the case then this might have some merit... I will admit that I have never used one but I had a very similar idea that my cuemaker has yet to act on... I wanted the extension for my jump cue to double as a jump bridge but that will mean having the a quick connect in both sections with a removable threaded rod.... I may have to get onto him about it again.......

i use the justa bridge and it can be used quite easily for jumping anywhere on the table that you can reach and stoke from plus it btidges well against a rail and is height adjustable as a regular bridge

Another option in the Keller Just-a-bridge. It is tall enough to use for jumping from some video I've seen of the bridge in use.

The EZ-Jumper looks a little bit taller which comes in handy if you can't make a tall enough and stable bridge due to SHORT fingers.
