Imitation vanilla vs. Real vanilla, Conventional vs. Synthetic, Scwag vs. Primo no matter how you wrap it the quality vs. Quantity debate has raged for years, and will never find a "winner" that all agree on. If you are the type of person who buys your camping gear at wal-mart, wears shades from the gas station and uses house chalk, than this product is clearly not aimed at you. Conversely if you tend to shop at REI, wear oakley shades and already spend your money on products like blue diamond or Russian, than you should take a serious look at this product.
As far as pre shot routine, it would be fairly simple to apply at the beginning of each or every other game, and simply stand up and assume the chalking stance without actually chalking. I can't see that having a major impact on the whole routine. After a little time getting comfortable and confident that the chalk will last the "need" to look at the tip should also not be an issue. Even a long game of 1 pkt would rarely go enough innings to become an issue. Even the worst shooters playing together rarely go over 25 innings in a game of 8 ball.
Even at one chalking per 10 inning game, one would use 30 dollars worth of BD or RM chalk, in the same time as 1 25 doller kamui, realistically the only possible motivation to make a product that you use less and lasts longer is for the good of the game, its a crappy business model...
