Legit Carbon Cues: A Legacy in Billiards

Founded by Jessi Nester just south of Seattle, Washington, Legit Carbon Cues has become a prominent name in the billiards industry. With decades of experience in the Pacific Northwest, Jessi’s Billiards has been the go-to destination for billiards enthusiasts seeking top-quality equipment and services.

Several years ago, Jessi embarked on a mission to create carbon cues that would set a new standard. These cues were designed to address limitations she saw in existing products. The result? A revolutionary carbon cue system that offered interchangeable parts, providing players with unprecedented customization options. Through rigorous testing and various manufacturing processes, the cues were meticulously refined to enhance playability.

Upon their debut in the Seattle market, Legit Carbon Cues became an instant sensation. Their exclusivity and exceptional performance made them highly sought-after, often flying off the shelves faster than they could be restocked. Recognizing the brand’s potential, Jessi sought assistance from her longtime friend and fellow pool player, Dale Fawver.

Dale, with a successful track record in business across different markets, stepped in as the lead developer and sales manager. Under his guidance, Legit Carbon Cues expanded rapidly. The brand adopted a unique sales approach, collaborating with local dealers in various regions to introduce Legit Cues to players worldwide.

In early 2024, Jessi entrusted the company to Dale, ensuring the legacy of Legit Cues would continue. Jessi remains an integral part of the company, offering her wealth of billiards knowledge and serving as an advisor. Together, they carry forward the passion and innovation that Jessi worked tirelessly to build over the years.
