I practiced on the new tables last night. I STRONGLY suggest everyone
take some time to get a practice game in before your match.
The new tables have a ball return. After an hour, I was still
instinctively trying to grab a ball out of a pocket, especially when I
scratched. :-)
The biggest change I noticed is that the pockets are much more
"active". A sloppy shot that used to go in, may now bounce out. It's
not the pocket itself, it's the higher rebound of the cushion leading
into the pocket.
Though I didn't notice it much, I'm sure the english, draw and follow
have changed.
