INCREASED
STRENGTH
► BETTER FEEL AND LONGEVITY
The P3 boldly abandons traditional wooden parts such as the joint facing, the bumper and the weight bolt threads in favor of the Phenolic, which is stronger and also acts as a sealant to protect the cue from moisture.
► STRONGER, STRAIGHTER, AND MORE DURABLE
Built to last, P3 is ready to help you win for years to come.
PURE POSITIVE
FEEDBACK
► UNPRECEDENTED STIFFNESS
The P3’s 30-piece core is comprised of three distinct alternating hard Maple and dense Ash splices, which maximizes its stiffness. Its crisp and satisfying “Thunk” is the sound of victory!
► THE MOST CONSISTENT HIT
The P3 combines an astonishingly solid feel, with unparalleled straightness for dead-on accuracy. It’s simply the best playing cue we’ve ever engineered.
A CUSTOMIZED
EXPERIENCE
► YOUR GAME YOUR WAY
The customizable Uni-Loc® Weight Cartridge System allows you to fine-tune P3 to within a tenth of an ounce, giving you up to 30 possible weight combinations, for a playing experience that’s totally yours.

4-PIECE CORE | SLEEVE TECHNOLOGY | PHENOLIC PARTS
The UIf you want beautiful equipment you can trust, C4+ is an innovation you can’t ignore. You’ll notice the solid, sturdy feel the second you pick it up.
OPTIMAL
STRAIGHTNESS
► STURDY 4-PIECE CORE
C4+ four-piece spliced butt construction ensures a straighter, more consistent cue.
► GREATER STABILITY
C4+ also eliminates the need for a threaded weight bolt that joins the forearm and handle making for a sturdier built. This cue is no quitter. It’s in it for the long haul.
EXQUISITE
EXOTIC WOODS
► ENHANCING SLEEVE TECHNOLOGY
Exotic woods and precious stones are inlayed on a thin sleeve and sheath the C4+’s core, thus allowing us to adorn any cue without compromising its integrity or performance.
► BEAUTY AND STRENGTH
There’s no need to compromise intricate inlay designs here. Backed by C4+’s sturdy fused maple core, these cues are just as strong as any solid cue but with more style.
SOLID
SOFTER HIT
► STRONG AND STABLE CONSTRUCTION
Phenolic is one of the strongest and most stable materials available for cue-making. C4+ adds a Uni-Loc® pin encased in a Phenolic core and also replaces other wooden components on the backside for greater stability and lifetime concentricity.
► REDUCED WOOD MOVEMENT
Added strength from the Phenolic drastically reduces moving parts, giving C4+ the most solid feel an inlayed cue can have.
Vantage: Our Most Powerful Spliced Maple Shaft
Vantage has been designed and developed for players seeking increased shaft stiffness and velocity in a spliced-maple shaft construction. It is the thickest, stiffest, strongest spliced shaft, and has the lowest front-end mass of the spliced shaft line-up. That may be surprising, but with the increased strength and spine of our ProV taper, Vantage shafts are stronger, allowing for increased mass reduction at the front-end.
Predator was awarded a patent for its innovative Vault Plate front-end construction: Patent # US9814963B2.
INCREASED
ACCURACY
► MORE FORGIVING
Predator’s cutting-edge shaft technology reduces guesswork, making it easier to pocket more balls with confidence.
► REMARKABLE LOW-DEFLECTION
The re-engineered front end is significantly stronger, lighter and more flexible, allowing the cue ball to push the shaft aside, reducing cue ball deflection.
EFFORTLESS
SPIN
► HIGH VELOCITY ROTATION
Predator’s low deflection shafts consistently deliver increased rotation and accuracy through their unique combination of strength, stiffness, and mass.
► MORE RUN-OUTS
Dance in circles around your opponent and position your cue ball effortlessly for a knockout victory.
CONSISTENCY
YOU CAN TRUST
► EXCEPTIONAL QUALITY CONTROL
Each shaft is constructed with our patented iMatch process. Every single triangle is tested for optimal density, mass, and stiffness and paired to create the best 10-piece shaft possible for better consistency and playability.
► HIGH GRADE NORTH AMERICAN MAPLE
Hand selected and kiln dried, only the best wood can make the cut to become a Predator shaft.

THE NEXT REVOLUTION IN PRECISION
After 20 years of research and development, the future of carom cue sports has arrived. Welcome to the revolution – introducing the Predator REVO 3C-S and 3C-U carbon fiber composite 3-Cushion shafts. These precision shafts, developed and manufactured at our research and development facility just outside of Boston, Massachusetts, are an advancement embraced by some of the best carom players in the world. Predator REVO shafts stand at the apex of precision and performance.
REVO 3C-S: THE EASIEST CARBON SHAFT TO ADJUST TO
The ultimate in billiards technology and performance. Made of carbon fiber composite, the REVO 3C-S gives you the highest level of precision and consistency of play thanks to its carbon fiber design. Maintaining accuracy on stroke shots is effortless. Precision hits are easy to consistently achieve, even when applying extreme side spin, as you need less effort to get the same amount of spin. Having access to easier spin and increased precision opens up more shot possibilities.
REVO 3C-S has been tuned to provide a standard deflection level comparable to a wood shaft, to make the transition from wood to carbon easier while getting the greatest radial consistency and the most dependable performance. The result? The easiest carbon fiber shaft to adjust to, featuring maximum precision, the most spin, the smoothest finish, and uncompromising durability and strength.
► For experienced players who want to transition from a standard Maple shaft to carbon with an easy adjustment.
INCREASE YOUR OPTIONS AND MAKE MORE POINTS
Players seeking to improve need to increase their success rate on very thin shots that are difficult to do consistently. REVO 3C carbon fiber technology produces consistent repeatability that you can trust, regardless of how you hold your shaft. Improving your execution and making your training more efficient, REVO 3C helps you increase your success rate on shots that you already know, add more of these difficult shots to your repertoire, and ultimately increases your options on the table.
REVO 3C-S FEATURES

► WARP RESISTANT
No matter where you travel or what the weather is like, your REVO 3C will stay straight thanks to its carbon fiber construction designed specifically for billiards.
REVO shafts feature a Limited-lifetime warranty against warpage.
PRECISE
ALIGNMENT
► EVOLVING FROM TRADITIONAL CONICAL TAPERS THAT DISTORT YOUR ALIGNMENT
Traditional wooden carom shafts need a strong or conical taper in order to maintain the stiffness necessary to hit the heavier carom balls with extreme side and withstand all of the lateral forces that come with that impact. However, the conical taper causes the tip to move diagonally away from the bridge hand as you stroke, affecting the impact point of the tip on the ball and making precise aiming more difficult. The REVO 3C carom shafts are made of carbon composite, which is naturally much stiffer and stronger than wood. This allowed us to design a taper that is technically more precise to aim with.
► MODIFIED CONICAL TAPER FOR A CONSTANT ALIGNMENT
Both the REVO 3C-S and 3C-U have the same Modified Conical taper, which tapers up more slowly in the bridging area. REVO 3C’s new taper design and its slower increase in the bridging area leverage the stiffness of the carbon materials to maintain constant cueing alignment throughout the practice strokes and impact. This improved geometry eliminates adjusting for the conical taper bias and gives your game more precision.
