Stalev's Cue

[pdcue]

Stalev's 200+ ball run was recently posted in the 14.1 section. He won the lag and while he was racking the balls for his opponent I noticed something about his cue. At about 1:38 Mike Davis asks him to re-rack the balls. When he lays his cue end rail it appears to wobble back and forth, back and forth, and then finally settling. It made me wonder if this cue was using some of the new technology that the British are using......the Gravity Cue, see link below. The cue does have an appearance of a snooker-like taper to it.

Thanks for the link...

IMHO - not a gravity cue. Quite possibly a Russian Pyramid cue. Looks similar to Dmitry's designs.
Or even a Brit style Snooker cue, but there appears to be a "wedge" inlay at the bottom of the butt.
If he laid it down on the edge of the flat, it could wobble - or not.
