Predator Cues adds the 2nd Generation to popular cue

JACKSONVILLE, nothing. (Oct. 27, 2011) – Predator Cues has updated the Ikon cue, one of its most popular cue series, with nine new models featuring exotic woods and bold inlays. One new model, the Ikon2 9, represents the creativity of Mike Ipjian of Glenview, IL, winner of the Mykon cue design contest held earlier this year. The team at Predator reviewed scores of designs from fans throughout the United States and Canada before selecting Mike's entry, a stunning blend of ebony wood and micarta with turquoise accents. These new cues strike the perfect balance between design and domination.

In addition to the U.S. and Canada contest, Predator held a similar contest in China through Laili Sports Equipment Co., Ltd., the exclusive Predator dealer for the People's Republic of China. 夏海欢/Haihuan Xia and 王金刚/Jason Wang won the China contest and future Ikon offerings will feature their designs. We appreciate the hard work and creativity of all our contestants and especially Haihuan, Jason and Mike.

The Ikon2 series feature the advanced C4+ technology with the Uni-Loc® Weight Cartridge System allowing players the ability to adjust the weight of their cue within 0.1 of an ounce. Phenolic reinforcements in the butt and the Uni-Loc® Original Quick-Release joint increase longevity and further enhance product/player performance. Each new Ikon2 cue has a standard weight of 19 oz. and comes armed with Predator's high-performance 314-2 shaft, which players can upgrade to the Z-2 or FAT shafts.

Like the original Ikon series, the Ikon 2nd generation cues are available with the Uni-Loc® Leather Luxe™ wrap. With a softer feel and higher tackiness than leather, the Leather Luxe wrap provides superior sweat absorption and comfort through three distinct layers. The polyurethane outer layer keeps hands dry by allowing sweat and moisture to pass through, while the cushioned middle layer absorbs and releases moisture. The sealer layer closest to the cue protects the cue from moisture, increasing its longevity.

These new Ikon2 cues have MSRPs ranging from $649-$1499. All are currently available for purchase through registered Predator dealers worldwide. Players and retailers can view the Ikon 2nd Generation online at www.predatorcues.com To locate a Predator Cues dealer or to learn more about Ikon2, visit www.predatorcues.com.
