CRICAL Upgrade PRO Black Technology Pool Billiards 58'' Carbon Fiber Pool Cue 3/8 * 8 Pin Joint 12.5mm Tip

Très satisfait, beau fini, super droite peu de distorsion

Despite there only being about 1% of 1 or 2 star reviews, I always assume whatever happened to them would happen to me. That wasn’t the case with this pool cue, the packaging it came in was great and well protected, tip came in good condition and the shaft wasn’t warped. I’ve used it twice now and I was worried that it would have a hollow feeling, but it actually feels great. I was contemplating on buying a new tip since everyone said that it comes with a medium harder tip, but I decided to wait and see how it was and it’s just fine for me. Haven’t played much with it but I can see it lasting a while.

Got the 006-CL Pro 2, is advertised as having a Pro Taper shaft, exact description as the 005-CL Pro 1, it does NOT have a pro taper shaft. I have to be fair here, the cue, especially for the price impressed me. Get a legit carbon fiber shaft, the butt was great with a nice finish, adjustable weight, and an extension ready butt cap, hard to beat. However When received and discovered did not have a pro taper shaft, did a return/replacement, figured was an error, nope, second one also no pro taper. Reached out to seller, they do respond, informing me the CL Pro 1 has the pro taper. Was confused as they advertised the "Pro" models all having a pro taper shaft....so very poor item description for these cues but good seller communication. So I ordered the CL Pro 1 and yes, does have a pro taper shaft. So I had to order THREE cues to get the pro taper shaft model when if the pro 2 had the proper shaft would have been perfectly ok with the cue. The pro 2 has a butt design i liked but not the proper shadt. *no the shaft of the pro 1 does not fit properly on the pro 2* the connection at the joint doesn't align. The pro 1 is so bland and not only that, the matte finish butt is very slick, so grip is an issue. Was such a hassle, not sure if will keep due to the butt being so slick. I will say this though, at the price point, do get a nice cue, if you can get the correct one. Has a nice layered tip and quality is good. I would recommend this cue so long as you are aware which taper shaft you are getting.

Minor defects on the coating but extremely minimal requires the right lighting and angle to see it. Straightness is 9/10 not perfect never will be wont affect game play. LD depends on you to be honest. Practice makes perfect with every different stick

It has a very smooth action and low deflection. It is primarily a break cur but i have played several games with it am am quite impressed!
