Any opinions on these? Im looking for a new break and a new jump cue.
OB Rift Break Cue & OB Pro Lift Jump Cue??

I have both and couldn't be more satisfied.
After hitting a friend's, I picked up a Lift Pro a few months ago and love it. It is the only jumper I've ever hit that made me even consider replacing the "Happy Hopper" I'd been jumping with for about 20 years, and some people tell me I jump pretty well. 
Two things about the Lift Pro did it for me. First, for me, the short handle extension makes for much better accuracy on longer jumps. Second, it gets the cue ball in the air with a comparitively easy stroke, and with a very "soft" feel.
Can't say much about the Rift, other than I also hit a friend's, and it felt very solid. I'd consider it if and when I replace my original Predator BK, which I've also had for close to 20 years (but it won't be soon, considering that I just replaced the original tip on the BK -- it finally just fell off last year -- with a Samsara).
