The way olhausen tables break compared to Diamond tables

I was watching the Corey Duel V. Dennis Hatch match on propoolvideo.com, and watch them break it didn't seem the balls were exploding out from the center, even when they hit the rack hard and full. I noticed this through the whole match. Then I go and check out the SVB V Joyner match, and they are playing on Olhausen tables, and I noticed that they barley hit the rack with a solid but not over powering break speed, and the balls just seemed to explode out of the rack, and I noticed this throughout the whole match. Is it the table? The balls? Im very puzzled, anybody notice this as well? Got any answers or ideas?

Could just be the speed/age of the cloth, maybe the way the color of the felt makes the balls look as they spread, could be Shanes break, Cliff break hard as well. I think they stated that the tables were used at the US Open and had been worn and broken into. Hatch wasn't hitten em solid if I remember and Corey wasn't killin them either..........

If the balls aren't exploding out of the rack, it's the rack or and the cloth on the table. Johnnyt

HUMIDITY can be included to the aforementioned factors

Ahhhh FLORIDA, got it, I think we have the culprit, and now that you mention it, I have the same thing happen on my garage table in the summer months.
