Tri-cues

[campbell]

Almost 1/3 of the cue is triangular with three rounded edges the tip however is round like any other cue tip if you go to www.amazon.co.uk search tricues you can zoom in on the cue

neither pages work for me

No problems viewing the site, nice simple layout, easy to buy and pay.

Good selection of retailers too, can't comment on the concept until I've tried it.

very strange ... both sites give "IE cannot display this page" for me too ... I'm using IE8 ...

IE8 doesn't let me and firefox says:
Firefox can't find the server at www.tricues.co.uk.

Both tell me it doesn't existed???

Working fine for me.

Can you show us a picture here?
Is the front section triangular, but then the tip is round?
Or is the front round but then the bridge area is triangular?
I am sorry I just cannot quite understand it still, after zooming in on Amazon and watching the video.
Good to see you seem ot have a nice retail network already in place.
Thank you.

[campbell]

I am usually all for innovation, gravity cues etc.,
I have doubts about this one though. How the hell can you patent this?

All you have done is shape the cue into a triangle V. We could take any old cue and do this ourselves...not that I would.

:snooker:

:

the same reason why anybody can patent anything, apply :P. People can patent helmets cams. What stops any of us buying a helmet and just strapping a camera on it

Anyone has the right to shape a piece of wood how they want....so anyone could do this with a cue if they wanted.
I cant see them giving a patent for this but I may be wrong.

What is the patent number? I will look it up at company house tomorrow see if this is correct.

lol that's the whole point of a patent, to stop people doing it. Nothing stopped people making dyson-esque hoovers till dyson got the patent. If he didn't patent it, someone else would have made the same and his market share would have fallen

I am the same over innovation, the gravity cue is a great idea which I am sure will be a big seller.

This one is nice and simple and I am sure over the years people have made alterations to their own cues similar to this.

But they have already sold 1000's, impressive :snooker:

Simple and interesting concept.

If the V-shape butt nestled in the crook of your finger wouldn't it enforce
more of a gliding level along a rail feeling to the cue stroke?

Anyone tried this?
