While the tournament started, the much-anticipated cue brand from Beassy™ was finally launched. The organizer herself, Beatrix Dobossy, put the first cues in the displays and right away, these high class cues caught the player's attention.
„Everybody has the own Dream Cue in mind, as I was also drawing and making designs for mine many years ago. Having a huge amount of sketches, I was looking up for cue makers and factories to create my own Dream Cue with the new trend: the finest design work with extreme solutions and with the best playability and quality, of course. The expectations were high, what needed unprecedented new technology.” says Dobossy while presenting her brand new cues. “Mission impossible – was the answers from everywhere. But I never give up.” The result can be viewed at the tournament site today and also on the brand's website, www.beassy.com .”The cues are meant for those players in the World who have a demand for luxury and high performance handmade cues”, Dobossy says.
