a question for you (and the other islanders too)
There is one instance where a player may legally play with both feet off the floor. - What is this instance.
When they wear shoes with front part sticking out 6 inches past the tip of their toes like all snooker players do.
Either that or wheelchair snooker.

Can I ask you a rule question please? Hope you don't mind. :)
I was playing in a comp, a serious one, back in May of this year, & with just the Pink & Black left on the table, my opponent fouled. I had a free ball & I had a chance of rolling up behind the black. My question is, is that still the only occasion that you can Snooker your oppo on a free ball when there is just the Pink & Black on the table?
I seem to remember you could, I just don't know if you still can. :ashamed:
First off, nice pics Jade, you look very professional
John, you are correct. If a player fouls, leaves a free ball and only pink and black are left on the table you are permitted to nominate the pink and roll up behind it. This is the only time a player can roll up on a free ball.
Thanks sickpotter
If you mean nominate the black SP, then Cool, thought so, I didn't play it/ I let another one win/
Playing in the Irish Nationals this week-end, been practicing with Colm Gilcreest lately. Know Colm?
Sound.

in a chair is right
What stipulation must occur though - what is the equivalent to having both feet off the floor

Wow! Congratulations!
Give it a few years, I'll be chasing you across venues for your autograph instead of Michaela.
