Xtend a cue or other cue extention

Sid

Do you sell Xtend a que (as seen in falcon website) or other cue extender ? Can you post the pictures and price of the various cue extensions you have and which you think is best and its price

Hi, I had Rick order some of the cue extentions so we will have them shortly. Should be around $17.95 if I remember right. (I am at home.) Sorry it took so long but I was trying to find one in particular for you. Coolest one I have ever seen (maybe a little pricey though) It was called "Stretch" but it had it all. Extend on the cue, bridge and bridge handle. It was set up so the bridge could be lifted off the quickly. The thing I liked about it is when the bridge was used in conjunction with the extention, there was no shot on a nine foot table that could not be made using a normal stroke.
Now I have you all worked up, the bad news. Can't find it anywhere. All the litature I have is a dead end. Don't know if they are still in business or what. If anyone has any info, let me know. I would like to get them in.

When you say " when the bridge was used in conjunction with the extension ....." Do you mean a mechanical bridge is still needed when using this cue extension (stretch) ?

If and when you get hold of this again, Kindly post the picture to give me a better idea what it looks like

Likewise onece you get the xtend a cue give me your feedback on this product

Yes, you used both. if your on a nine foot table, and have a shot in the middle of the table at the other end, with the cue extention you might be able to reach it, but imagine how far forward the cue is out of your bridge hand. With the one I am talking about not only could you reach the shot, but using the bridge, it was a very steady shot also. The bonus is that you can use your normal cue stroke. If I find any information, I will post it.

just do an Ebay search for "snooker" , there's heaps of telescopic slide on extensions avaiable cheap , much better to get one that slides on the butt end of your cue rather than slip over the tip end .

have you ever tried one of the "slide on one extension fits all" type off ebay , I have for snooker and they suck prepared to the ones that screw in to the bottom of your cue , they are just too "wonky" for power shots .
Better to see your nearest pool cue builder/repairer and get him to put a light weight female joint in the bottom of your cue's butt and make a suitable extension with male joint fitting , and if your fussy a screw in "butt plug" for when the extension is not in use (protects base of cue)
These are very common in snooker nowadays and I made a 9" for my own 9ball cue , cost me $5.50 for the joiner and I already had some old damaged cues one of which I cut 9" from the base of . I have to agree though , I would never slide one over the tip end of my cue , dont even like sliding the porper burnsher over a laminated tip !
