Viking VIK285 Smoke Smoked Pearl Pool Cue VIK285

Viking VIK285 Pool Cue — Smoked Pearl Butt with Gray Stained Maple Forearm

The VIK285 is a subtle cue that rewards a second look. A smoked pearl butt section paired with a gray stained maple forearm — the gray stain on the maple creates a cool, muted tone that works naturally with the iridescent smoked pearl material. It's a quiet combination that doesn't announce itself across the room, but up close the pearl material has the kind of depth and shimmer that you don't get from a painted or stained surface. The V-PRO shaft is the performance backbone — 5-year aged maple with 9 to 11 turnings over 18 to 24 months, a process Viking uses to eliminate warp risk before the shaft ever reaches a customer.

High-Performance Features

• Smoked Pearl Butt with Gray Stained Maple Forearm: A subtle, refined color combination — the gray stain and smoked pearl share a cool, muted tone that gives the cue a cohesive, understated look.
• 13mm Tiger Everest Tip with Viking Super Ferrule: A top production tip paired with Viking's Super Ferrule for a consistent, reliable hit response.
• V-PRO Shaft — 5-Year Aged Maple: 29" shaft with 9 to 11 turnings over 18 to 24 months — Viking's shaft aging and turning process significantly reduces long-term warp risk.
