Break with Confidence. Play with Character.
The opening shot sets the tone for the entire frame. The MARK RICHARD Professional Purple English Pool Break Cue #T2EPB04 has been developed for players who want more from their break, more control, more consistency, and more presence at the table.
Combining a 58-inch Canadian Ash shaft, dedicated 11mm break setup, and a bold Purple & Black exotic wood splice design, this cue delivers powerful performance while remaining approachable for developing players.
Built specifically around English pool standards, this cue helps you create stronger break-offs without sacrificing feel or control.
Purpose-Built for Powerful English Pool Breaks
Designed as a dedicated English Pool Break Cue, featuring a 58" playing length, 11mm fibre ferrule, and medium-hard break tip. Breaking effectively isn’t simply about hitting harder—it’s about transferring energy efficiently.
The break-specific setup helps players achieve:
✓ Stronger cue ball reaction
✓ More controlled break-offs
✓ Cleaner rack spread
✓ Greater consistency from frame to frame
This makes the cue ideal for players wanting to improve both break power and overall table position.
Premium Canadian Ash Shaft for Controlled Power
Constructed from selected Canadian Ash, chosen for its natural straightness and responsive playing characteristics. Canadian Ash remains one of the most trusted cue materials for English cue sports.
The result is:
- Smooth cue acceleration
- Consistent feedback through the shot
- Reliable straight cue delivery
- Better confidence during powerful breaks
Rather than feeling overly stiff, the cue offers a controlled strike that feels natural and repeatable.
Signature Purple & Black Exotic Wood Design
Finished with Purple & Black exotic wood splices over a reinforced Hi-Tech composite butt. Performance matters, but confidence often starts with what’s in your hands.
The layered construction provides:
✓ Enhanced durability
✓ Improved structural stability
✓ Comfortable grip feel
✓ Distinctive modern styling
Ergonomic Construction for Better Break Technique
Hi-Tech composite butt engineered to improve grip comfort and reinforce the joint area. Developing players often struggle with generating power consistently.
The ergonomic construction supports:
- More relaxed cue delivery
- Better hand positioning
- Reduced unwanted vibration
- Improved strike confidence
Perfect for players building break technique and consistency over time.
Traditional 3/4 Jointed Design
Built using a 3/4 jointed construction for improved cue balance. Many English pool players prefer a 3/4 jointed cue because more of the cue remains continuous through the playing section.
Advantages include:
✓ More natural front-end feel
✓ Stable cue action
✓ Easier transport than one-piece cues
✓ Quick setup before play
A practical choice for club nights and regular practice.
