Start playing with precision thanks to its adapted weight and 10 mm tip.
Your cue does not require any assembly: it is a single piece.
Being a one piece cue, it is harder to transport than a jointed cue.
The UK/SNK DISCO 300 145 cm cue is not designed to hold an extender.
Made from softwood.
0.5 cm brass ferrule.
No joint = robustness.
Description
Our team recommends that beginners opt for heavier cues that provide a better feel while playing. Your English billiards/snooker cue measures 145 cm (57") and weighs 540 g (19 oz).We cannot guarantee that the cue will be a precise weight (margin of 10%) since the density of wood varies (even within the same timber species) depending on the forest, its exposure to sunlight and the section harvested (truck, crown, treetop).
The UK/SNK DISCO 300 cue is 145 cm (57 inches) long. Perfect for beginners, its standard size helps you get a real feel for playing billiards and provides a better grip, especially for hard to reach balls!
All of our billiards cues are manufactured. Straightness is checked individually, cue by cue, as they leave the factory. Nevertheless, changes in temperature and humidity during the transportation, storage and selling stages can affect their straightness over time. This consistency problem affects all billiards cues on the market, at least all wooden cues (maple, ash, poplar, ramin).
Its technical features and accessibility make poplar (a soft wood species) a popular wood, especially for furniture. Our team makes billiards cues from poplar because it has the incredible advantage of drying quickly without warping. It also grows straight, which makes the cues naturally straight. This makes it the perfect timber species for billiards cues!
Snooker is easily recognisable by its rather large table: 3.57 m long and 1.78 m wide with a weight close to 1,200 kg (only!). But also because of its larger number of balls than in American or English pool (15 balls vs. 22 balls in snooker). A very large table, balls with a small diameter: as you must have guessed, it's a discipline where precision and rigour are more than necessary!
The compressive breaking stress coefficient and static bending breaking stress coefficient of poplar are 35 MPa and 62 MPa respectively (at 12% humidity). Put simply, this poplar cue is robust, sturdy and stable. However, it is less so than maple or ash cues. These two timber species have features that make them more robust and stable (they are also more expensive).
To safeguard your cue's straightness and prevent warping, we recommend storing it away from moisture and temperature changes. Once your game is finished, store it flat in a storage cover or case. You can also store it as vertically as possible in a cue rack. Do not lean it against a wall as this could cause warping!
Temperature changes, wear and tear, and abrasive chalk can damage your tip and cost you precious accuracy. Therefore, regular upkeep is important. This process is incredibly simple: 1/ Remove the worn tip 2/ Rough up the new tip with sandpaper 3/ Glue on the new tip 4/ Work the tip with a Stanley knife Our product engineer goes more in depth on our support page.
The DISCO 300 145 cm cue is one piece, which gives it the advantage of being straighter, more sturdy and more robust than jointed cues. Being a bit harder to transport than jointed cues, it is mainly designed to be used at home. However, it's easier and faster to start playing with this cue: there's no assembly, just get to breaking!
Successful billiards shots start with a proper hand position called the "bridge". There are many different hand positions you can use depending on your shot or the layout of the balls on the felt. Nicolas Henric, coach for France Blackball (English billiards) teams and Maeva Brionne, international player, explain how to make a billiards bridge
Under the umbrella term of billiards hides a whole range of cue sports: pool, English billiards, French billiards, snooker and so many others! Each sport has its own rules and atmosphere...But also a specific cue for different sizes of balls. Choosing the right billiards cue starts with knowing which sport you want to play! Here are the tip sizes generally used: > pool: 13 mm > French billiards: 11-12 mm > snooker: 9-10 mm > blackball: 8-9 mm
