Telescopic snooker sets can be used to allow players to reach the cue ball at a distance that is not possible with standard sets. In fact, they have been used to make some of the most important shots in snooker history. Many professional players and top-level tournaments use these telescopic snooker rests, and they are regularly seen on T.V. You can also find them in the best snooker tournaments.
The cross rest is the most commonly used telescopic snookerrest. This rest is the shortest and easiest to use. The extended spider rest head can be used occasionally. This type is most commonly used for larger tables. This type of rest is often used with a half-butt shaft.
Baize Master push-on extension is another type of accessory for telescopic snooker tables. This extension is very easy to set-up and lock in any location. This extension is also easier to set up than traditional screw-in extensions. The extension collar is coloured anodised aluminum and allows you to adjust the length to your needs. This extension works well for full-size table snooker. It can be locked anywhere from 72 to 105 cm in length. Its locking system and metal shaft keep it in place while playing.
You can also choose to have a rest head on your table tennis table extension. Many snooker clubs have the 'Long Spider rest' available for their members. These are more difficult to use than the standard rests, but they can be a great help if you can't reach the cue ball from the other side of the table. The heads for these tables rests can be purchased separately, or you can order them with your extension. They may be more expensive or not included in the purchase price.
Some telescopic snooker rests are designed to replace both the half-butt and full-butt. Others, such as an extended spider rest, can be used in conjunction the half butt shaft. Although they can be very useful in reaching the cue ball on the other side of the group of balls, the extended spider cannot be used at larger tables. Installing a table rest head may be a charge by some snooker club. This fee can be waived if you do not wish to purchase a rest head.
Some of the best telescopic snooker rests available are manufactured by Blue Moon Leisure UK Ltd. They offer snooker tables rests in two lengths. Each of these extensions can also be used as a long or jigger handle.
