I've always like Dale seems a very humble guy and has become a very good commentator on TV keep up the good work dom

[@user-ii4sk3zy6b]

But he’s crap at snooker 😂

[@marksimpson2321]

​@@user-ii4sk3zy6bbettee than youll ever be though.

[@RokitPanda]

Dom is as friendly in person and happy to talk as he is here. He comes for a practice at my local club every now and again. Top guy

[@jesseboy7951]

Wow, Xmas came early for me, thank you WST! I absolutely adore Spaceman, can listen to him talking about basically anything for hrs, so this is a treat.

[@garrikozhanovskiy361]

Same , what a knowledgeable man he is

[@user-ii4sk3zy6b]

Really 😂

[@chrisjohnson4165]

Excellent!! I didn't know that Dominic does woodwork on cues. I'm a violin maker and amateur player and love doing cues. It was very good of him to spend the time to give you this advice.

[@jamesgallagher1992]

Yup..hes also had 100s of cues...used to turn up at most tournaments with a different cue👍

[@brianlev-ari1222]

Dale looks like such a nice person, always wearing a beautiful smile

[@danieladaniel2004]

Met Dale in York. Very polite and friendly.

[@MANIKVERMA-to3vf]

Very polite and very soft like W.A.H

[@flyingturtle3284]

As a Chinese fan, still remember Dominque Dale winning the Shanghai Master with the fancy color shirt and golden hair and he beat Ryan Day in the final. It was really a struggle for the commentator because their last name sounds very similar.

[@chriskindler10]

Dominic is a such a good guy

[@C4rl0s-_-4R]

Best person to ask about cues. He’s had more cues then the rest of the tour combined 😂

[@C4rl0s-_-4R]

And first cue shop he mentions is craftsman cues. Which he says is at Leeds. But it’s actually kippax. On the outskirts

[@Scipted]

Love Dominic such a gentleman

[@djtaylormade1195]

What a great guy Dale is

[@AngrierGorilla]

from what I've heard, Dom is also a great cues collector

[@justynbarnes7895]

Thank you, Spaceman! So much cue knowledge.

[@79BlackRose]

Fascinating info from a proper gent. Kudos Dominic.

[@khushal346]

I really needed this type of basic information about cues. its very helpful, Thanks.

[@boahnation9932]

Dominic is so knowledgeable. I love his commentary! Great player too 😎

[@davidhale8034]

Top man Dominic!!

[@IFranchisedI]

Green baize is tops. Stu even did a throw/ deflection test for my cue since I couldn’t make the trip from the us. Get yourself a Maximus Thai made cue. They are amazing and way cheaper than Parris

[@sispen297]

I have a Maximus Legend I bought from Green Baize, I also finally received my Parris I had on order in October. Yes the Parris was more expensive, but how it plays is so much better than the Maximus. Virtually zero throw, much better action on the cue ball and more power. Both are 19oz, 3/4 joint, 9.5mm ferrule, G2 tip. I would say the difference between them in terms of craftsmanship however is very little. Parris just edges it.

[@IFranchisedI]

@@sispen297 yeah gotta spend the little extra money and get at least the legend plus. The regular Maximus legend is just a standard shaft. The plus is a higher grade ash and aged longer to have less mass and therefore less throw. My legend plus has virtually no throw/deflection. But it’s hard to imagine any cue playing better than my 1pc Maximus ultimate. I’m sure a Parris ultimate plays pretty awesome but I doubt it plays £1,600 more awesome

[@sispen297]

@@IFranchisedI no it won’t, for sure. At the top level of each of the best cue makers they are all going to be very similar. One other thing I didn’t mention about my Parris over the Maximus is the balance of the cue. That’s another area it’s much better. End of the day it’s not the brand that guarantees a good cue, it’s how it feels to you.

[@IFranchisedI]

@@sispen297 yes absolutely I do wish the balance was farther back. I know Parris cues have a balance back at 16-17inches on a lot of the 58s and 59s which will definitely have better feel and control and that can be huge

[@sispen297]

Yeah mine is balanced at 15” just before the join on the butt. Feels amazing when cueing, and my game has really improved in the two months I’ve had it.

[@Ben-cx5fe]

Such a polite, pleasant and well-spoken man. Not like like a lot of the other players then lol :)

[@clivebond7858]

Dale knows his onions, very knowledgeable chap.

[@oliverpeel8678]

More on cues please!!

[@jimmyk9523]

Anyone remember him snapping a cue against a wall in the WC after losing to Jimmy White? Early 00s this was

[@charlottemcnair-nx6cm]

Judd Trump hero, is an absolute genius and such a privilege to watch him still at the top of the game 30 years after he won the UK championship for the first time. The longevity is unbelievable. Ronnie O'Sullivan GOAT ♥ 🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐

[@ISOLATICN1]

About time, all commentators hate it, but I’ve been looking forward to these videos for a while now.

[@ruleyramundo]

Stuart Bingham in the background shot in the first 2 minutes has put on lots of weight really quickly 👍 May it will help his game 😃

[@CalRapz]

That’s not Stuart Bingham you absolute weapon

[@MegaBagera]

It's obviously Stephen Lee

[@user-fj4ng5nv7d]

Anyone knows what time Jack Hyperski is play today ?

[@Wayne-zx1uv]

Aaron knows 🏆👍

[@countbasi4680]

Did he say he keeps his cue as vertical as he can over the summer months? I was taught to keep it horizontal when stored away to distribute any conceivable moisture more evenly throughout the cue, should there be any at all.

[@gordoncockfield]

A lot of the great players such as judd, john Higgins or myself 😂😂 gotta love Dom

[@snooker9773]

It sounds ok if he said "or" not "and".

[@user-gd6to6xj9i]

Judd the one time and never again world champion?

[@gordoncockfield]

@@snooker9773 sorta the same thing but I'm sure he wasn't comparing himself to them I just found it funny. Gotta love dom and his commentary is also good

[@AndreasHeidt-uy6sc]

A very good interview, which will certainly interest most players. Who is the man interviewing Dominic Dale and what is his name?

[@worldsnookertour]

Tai Chengzhe

[@Mick-Dempsey]

All Hail The Dale !!!

[@CFCseventy]

Got Maximus’s ultimate great cue

[@joehirst4347]

Cool respect

[@CHARLOTTEMCNAIR-rw4cq]

Dale is a great player ♥

[@CueBald]

Great Video. Agree with what Dom says... Thai cues are superb and the craftsmanship are better than Parris!

[@UnboxRacing]

Yes indeed, but which one is best? Kinda tempted to go plain ebony maximus in the pro edition. But, omin is about 15 Mins from my place in Bangkok. Choices, choices.

[@CueBald]

@UnboxRacing never tried an Omin cue. I had a maximus ultimate and now playing with a VR Ultimate which is superb.

[@dangermouse8466]

Dominik, thanks for that. I learnt something new about cues.

[@stephenelward7023]

Dominic is a great guy I knocked him over once at the Welsh open he was running to table and he ran into me haha

[@v11n1man]

Dominic its wery good stik speciall, fom tip's

[@jamie-ol8dm]

Love the spaceman. But he’s had more cues than Heathrow airport.

[@Wayne-zx1uv]

Classy guy Dale.Rather have Dale commentating on TV than classless Stephen Hendry . Its all about him when commenting 🏆

[@AsifSaeedSaeed-se9lp]

Eight of the last 12 WSC were won by the greatest player of all time Ronnie O'Sullivan & second greatest player of all time Mark Selby. They won 4 World titles each ( 2012-2023 ) Judd Trump 1 World title 2019. Absolutely hilarious! Its the toughest era in snooker history,and that's why Judd cant win a second World title to save his life. Absolute fact 🏆 👌

[@alangrynich2037]

Maximus cue all day long you can pick up a decent maximus for £300 no problem

[@adrianwright8685]

Doesn't matter how long cue is - you don't have to hold it at any precise distance from the rear end - you can adjust according to how tall/short you are.

[@jayjayb89]

I swear he served me a takeaway

[@jessejeffery4030]

Who?

[@monty3854]

😂 I had to come back and find this comment. Since I read it I can't stop thinking about Dominic Dale working part-time in a Chinese restaurant. Of all the people in the world it would surprise me least. I can fully imagine him doing it just to get out of the house and talk to people 😂 Anyway thanks, I've had a lot of fun with this in my head!

[@user-br5mh2xm7w]

Classy guy Dale.Rather have Dale on WST than classless Judd Trump. Always nice to see him lose. Great in Zhang Anda 🏆

[@uk5g262]

Mr dale is definitely top 3 snooker players of all time for me. Just above gary wilson !

[@ruleyramundo]

Top of your list would be Joe Swail 👍

[@theironshiek]

Are you being serious?

[@bigscrounger]

Dale reminds me of JAWS from James Bond

[@user-mw3ev3wr9e]

Reminds me of classless Stephen Hendry Did he mention my name? NO..David only mentioned Jimmy White & Ronnie What an inflated ego. What a mug! 🏆👍

[@sharpvidtube]

I wonder what he thinks about carbon fibre cues? They don't seem as flexible as ash, but somehow have less deflection? Not sure how that's possible.

[@davidsmith5523]

Dominic talks old cues on my Channel Cues n Views.

[@ruleyramundo]

Dom is a student of the game. Always nice to hear from the English born plastic Welsh man 😃

[@gordoncockfield]

Ah-haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!

A traditional style cue? Dale has cues on order with most cue makers in the midlands with all kinds of splicings

[@user-db2kl8bj1j]

Mark Selby is the second greatest player of all time after Ronnie O'Sullivan in snooker,and Mark Selby is the greatest player of all time in cue sports..Only player to win World titles in snooker & pool. Not sure about hype job Davis though. What a player Mark Selby. What a genius,and a nice guy like Ronnie.

[@charlottemcnair1881]

Judd Trump has been the most consistent loser at the triple crown events in the last 19 years Turned pro in 2005,and won just 1 World,1 UK.and 2 masters and everyone is chatting shit about Stephen & Ronnie; One guy was praying on KZbin saying please GOD let Judd win Hahahaha..It was W.A.H yes it was W.A.H. He loves Judd....Hendry is the second greatest player of all time after the GOAT Ronnie O'Sullivan Couldn't care less whether anybody likes it or not! Facts and stats matter in sports. Ronnie 🐐 Ronnie 40 Ranking & 22 Major Titles Hendry 36 Ranking & 18 Major Titles. I'm never wrong! 🏆

[@AKBARSHAH-te5gv]

I always see Judd play with 60 % luck,and 40% ability. He hits hard and hope because 6 pockets. When long shots don't go in he is a very average player.We saw how Mark Allen destroyed him 10-3..On the other hand watch how better Ronnie & Hendry play, they are far far better. That's why Ronnie & Hendry are the two greatest and most successful players in snooker. Ronnie GOAT 🐐 & then Hendry 🐐

[@SimonAyersPool]

£300-400 for a beginner's cue?! WTH! Has he ever actually met a beginner? You can get a decent starter cue that can play all the shots for £100. Obviously if you want to take the game seriously you can spend more money and get a better cue, but if you are just playing once a week with your mate then £300 is a lot of money!

[@WAYNEANTHONYHOLMES-bt3zh]

Its gone viral that Beckham did NOT mention princessyips aka Hendrys name at the ROS documentary.,and right about now trending on SM. What a pity. What an inflated ego! The guy is history. Nobody cares 👍
