Telescopic Snooker Rests can be used to enable players to reach and control the cue ball at distances that are not possible using a standard set. In fact, they have been used to make some of the most important shots in snooker history. These telescopic Snooker Rests are often seen on T.V. by professional players as well as top-level tournament organizers. You can also find them in the best snooker tournaments.
Cross rest is the most popular type of telescopic Snooker Rest. This rest is the shortest and easiest to use. An extended spider rest head may be used, though. This rest is used most often on larger tables. It allows players to reach their cue ball even if the other side of the group of balls is not present. This type of rest is often used with a half-butt shaft.
Another type of telescopic snooker table accessory is the Baize Master push-on extension. This extension is quick to set up and lock in any position. You can also use it instead of traditional screw-in extenders. The colour-anodized aluminum extension collar makes it easy to modify the length to meet your needs. This extension works well for full-size table snooker. It is adjustable in length from 72 cm up to 105cm and can be locked at any time. Its metal shaft and locking system ensure that it stays in place during play.
You can also choose to have a rest head on your table tennis table extension. For example, some snooker clubs make the 'Long Spider' rest available to their members. These are more difficult than the regular rests, but they can help you reach the cue balls from the other end of the table. You can purchase the heads separately or order them together with your extension. You may pay more for some, while others may not.
Some telescopic full-butt and half-butt snooker rests can be replaced by telescopic snooker ones. Others, such the extended spider rest can be used together with the half-butt. Although these are useful for reaching the cue balls from the opposite side of a group, the extended spider can only be used on larger tables. You may have to pay a fee to place a resthead on your table. You can use an alternate rest head to your extension if you don't wish to pay the fee.
Some of the best telescopic snooker rests available are manufactured by Blue Moon Leisure UK Ltd. They make snooker table rests in two different lengths, and each of these extensions can be used as a long cue or a jigger handle.
