The "Slam Dunk" is a personal favorite and one that I re-designed for the 2007 ESPN Trick Magic Event.

Cue Ball Setup: In hand

Object Ball Setup: 'A1' is in hand near edge of rack. 'A2' ball is frozen to point of rack

Prop Setup: Edge of rack is centered on the foot spot as shown. 'A1' ball is on top of a NEW piece of chaulk. Prop a shaft across diamond 1 points ontop of the rail so that 'A2' ball can roll under.

Objective: Shoot cue ball into 'A1' and launch it over the shaft into pocket A before ball 'A2' falls into the same pocket.

Helpful Hints:
(1) Center ball hit, Level Cue, Speed is Key
(2) Line point of rack and all object balls with the center of pocket A
(3) Keep cue ball distance from A1 ball consistant. I use a 3 to 4 ball gap and give it a POP!
