Layered tips are a fairly new introduction to the world of snooker. Made from several layers of pig skin glued together they offer several benefits over traditional tips.They last for months, and sometimes years.They play in much quicker, a tip change no longer means sessions of adjusting to the new tip.They hold chalk better.They don't splinter as easily.And they offer a more 'grippy' feel of the cue ball which seems to allow for more spin to be generated.The tip is the most important part of your cue - it's the only thing permitted to strike the cue ball - so we welcome any improvement! Available in SOFT, MEDIUM,HARD, EXTRA HARD
