  • Officially approved rests

    Does anyone know the official list of WPBSA approved snooker accessories? I speak only in reference to rests and extensions. I've so far failed to find anything online. There're some inventions (K-Rest, Flexi-Rest, Hook-Rest) that I've never seen used at a televised ranking event. Is that because they're banned by World Snooker? I'd just like to see an inventory of apparatus available at a table at a World Championship match, for example.

    Finally received a response from World Snooker regarding this issue. This is more for my interest to be honest, but if anyone else was curious, here is the response:

    Dear Trystan



    The flexi-rest has never been approved by WPBSA.



    At the World Championship this season the equipment provided at the table was,



    1 x long extendable crosshead rest.

    1 x long extendable spider.

    2 x crosshead rests.

    1 x spider.

    1 x extended spider.

    1 x swan neck spider.

    2 x telescopic cue extensions.



    Thanks
