The “Power Break II”, with the innovative Deep Impact Technology, was created for optimal control, custom balance and ultimate playability. By making the butt portion of the PBII approximately 4 inches (10.2 centimeters) shorter than the average break cue, Mezz has made it possible to reduce the amount of deflection and distortion that occurs at the time of impact. This keeps the power of the player’s stroke from escaping and transfers it directly to the cue ball. Additionally, Mezz has also developed and incorporated a unique weight adjustment system (2-Way Weight Balance System), whereby the weight and balance of the cue can be fine-tuned to suite each individual.
