LAUNCH OF NEW MODELS

SAM Leisure have forged a reputation for excellence in the Professional pool arena over many years. The K Steel has been the table of choice for the American pro circuit and used throughout the Riley's estate, The Elbow Rooms and the independent snooker sector.

In 2010, at EAG, SAM will be launching the K-Steel-2, already chosen for the Professional GB9 tour. With a sleek, redesigned top frame and cushion assembly the K Steel 2 really pushes the boundaries on pool table accuracy, consistency and player appeal. Not just a joy to play on, the K Steel 2 features pockets and rubbers of such strength and durability that the user need not worry about replacement until long after most other tables have been put out to pasture! Designed specifically to meet new EPBF Specifications, the K Steel 2 has impressed the current World 9 Ball Champion, Daryl Peach (The UK currently boasts no less than 3 World Champions in the American Pool game),

Reported quote: “After seeing for myself the quality, precision, and sheer scale of the SAM set up in Spain, I am in no doubt that SAM are the best table manufacturer in the world, with absolutely nothing left to chance. The custom table that we will be using on the GB 9 Ball Tour is a picture of perfection with a super sleek look that is a sure winner. On the playability side of things this table is second to none. Everything possible has been taken into consideration, from the EPBF approved tournament spec pocket sizes, cuts, and shelf depths, to the new and improved Artemis ‘steel response’ cushions. I can’t wait for the 2010 season to start so that every GB9 member gets the opportunity to experience pool table perfection."

The first commercial site to install the new K Steel 2 will open in January. Rock and Roller in Brighton will boast six K Steel 2’s in high gloss black formica and striking lime green cloth. The success of American pool led designer bars seems to continue as Rock and Roller follows hard on the heels of Miss Q’s, the Nick Valentine and Eddie Bloom collaboration in Earls Court that opened in November.
