First appearance of a white diamond

Diamond made it for the main finals arena at apa nationals. Im not sure if I love it or hate it lol I know I would have to have maybe someone paint the diamond name in blue or black so that stands out a little and breaks up the white. It’s a little much for the eyes. Also I looked close and it looks like the the pockets aren’t there on the Top of the table like some people complain about. I’m not sure what they did.

Of course it’s already sold. The founder of apa bought it for his house.

Edit to say I was incorrect. The leather pockets are there like all diamonds. Just can’t see it in that picture

I’m anal and keeping that clean would drive me ape shit.
It might be like vehicles. It's much easier to keep a white truck clean than a black truck. It is pretty ugly though.
 
It's not bad but lets be real its not great either.

I can only imagine the markup on it. It's going to be called their "championship model" table.
 
Diamond got a little 'me too' in it.

And predator recently advertised a revolutionary octagonal handle cue...just like longoni made for a decade+

Three chords, baybeee.

Your not wrong .. I have a black wrangler. Everything is black and its never clean more then an hour
 
In my opinion that table is hideous!

Side note: I've never seen such big pockets on a diamond. It looks very weird. Probably plays more generously than a valley due to the side pockets.

diamond started making league cut tables for the apa and you can now order them that way. They are 4 3/4 pockets just like a valley. I get why they do it because I’ve seen a couple 3s take an hour and a half to play 3 games on a valley. You can’t have them taking all day to play in a tournament this size. Why someone would order or want one like that I have no idea.
 
The white table and other cloth colors like light blue interest me, I think it looks great. Living here in Idaho, we have a long season of dust. The Idaho moon dust gets into, and onto everything inside the house. I am thinking the lighter color won’t show the dust right away, even when wiping down the table before and after billiard play. Yes, the table has a cover. But that dust clings to the table legs which are not covered.
The problem is finding a white commercial/pro table here in southwest Idaho, the choices are zero. So black it is!
Henry Ford once said of the model T, “ You can have any color, as long as it’s black”.
