Hi Blackjack, This is Fast. If you like jump shots, pm me your mailing address and I will send you some of my tapes. I have jump shots you just cannot believe possible. When I first began making these in the early 90's the record then was jumping over 12 balls and using a ramp ball to get airborne, cue ball shoots into an OB and then leaps over the string of balls and goes down table to pot a hanger in the corner.
I used a regular 20oz falcon cue, no jump cue and cold jumped my cb off of the cloth using no ramp ball, flew over 26 balls, landed, went through a rack and hit two balls sitting in the corner, the 8 and 9 and crossed banked both balls in the opposite corner making them 8 and then 9. In the last decade nobody has been able to duplicate that shot.
Cue ball sits just in front of right corner pocket on head short rail, line of balls going cross table down to far left corner pocket on foot rail 9' away, impact two balls there and cross bank to right far corner pocket. 4 l/2 by 9' gandy big G table with 4 3/4" pockets with house cloth and house cue ball.
From that same position, I also cold jumped over the 26 balls and flew off the end of the table 9' away without touching the cloth just to show how far I could jump then. I could jump a ball up into the light fixture. The jump and the banks is what got me on TV and in Ripleys. I just wanted you to know what the record on this is, I hold it. You can believe it or not, if you do not, no problem because I have it on tape.
Best Wishes to you and to your recovery, God bless you to continue your outstanding work in helping all of us to become better players.![]()
