I have an X-Breaker and I couldn't control the cue ball very well breaking, but I loved it for jumping.

To improve the break, I had a super hard leather tip put on, and it breaks great now, but it doesn't jump as easily.

I want to install the hardest tip possible on another jump cue I have. What's the best, hardest jump tip available? I want to buy one.

Send it to me...I'll fix it for free. Your choice G10 or my canvas resin. The canvas holds chalk a bit better, but I'll do either. I'll be glad to send you one of each...but at some point you have popping off issues if you just glue them on. If I do it then I'll thread them into the ferrule and warranty them for life. Just spreading some good Karma around.:)

XBreaker G-10 Tip

Isn't G-10 the original material used on the tip in the Samsara version of the Xbreaker? I have one and find it holds chalk just fine. In fact, to stay in stroke, I practice running racks with the Xbreaker and very seldom miscue. It keeps your stroke near center ball where it should be. Just make sure your home table is far away from the china cabinet in case you do miscue.:p

Yes, it was awesome for jumping but I'm breaking a lot better, and I mean a lot better, with a Tiger leather break tip. The Tiger break tip is not really hard enough for jumping in my opinion.

I like the G-10 for jumping because it requires such little effort, I can make a smoother stroke and still get the ball up high. I like the fact there is less spin on the cueball too, so if you don't hit dead center it doesn't veer off as much.

Thanks - I have a canvas phenolic on my jump cue right now and a phenolic on a Bungee. The stupid bulb on the back of the Bunjee butt actually gave me blisters. I want to try the G-10 because it was so easy to get the ball up on the X-breaker. I would say I could hit the shot roughly 25% or so easier to get the same height.

Right now, what I'm doing is taking the fatter back butt section of my jump/break cue and screwing it into a shaft with a canvas phenolic tip. The fatter, longer butt gives me better aim. I want to try the same set-up with a G-10 but couldn't find anyone selling them.

i sent 2 shafts off to Kevin Varney a month or so ago. both to have a one piece canvas phenolic tip installed. nothing but good work by him. i couldnt be happier about it. the phenolic forces me to focus more on my break. better equiptment + more focus = better break. thanks again Kevin

Chris, I have a bunch of white diamond tips. I'll mail you one if you want it. Just make sure it's glued on right and tight because sometimes it will pop off.
 
Hay Jazz :) white diamond tips!

Hay Ho!
Mail me one too! I think they are the best. Great feel great contact and great control. Any one that I let use my break stick to see what it is realy likes that tip!
I really like how it installs on your ferrel so you can always make the shaft a player just by changging tips.
Nick :)
