Interesting point that would have to be run by the WPA. However if the manufacturer says that one of the intended uses is to prop up the hand, you might just get away with it. Earl was not allowed to use his finger extensions! 1.3 USE OF EQUIPMENT Players may not use equipment or accessory items for purposes or in a manner other than those for which the items were intended (refer to rules 3.42 and 3.43). For example, powder containers, chalk cubes, etc., may not be used to prop up a mechanical bridge (or natural hand bridge); no more than two mechanical bridges may be used at one time, nor may they be used to support anything other than the cue shaft.

i do rember earl getting a telling off by Michaela Tabb and then i think he gave her flowers in the next match for his strop!! that aside, thats a good point about equipment being used as intended but surely that would allow mr strickland to use his finger extenssions as that what they are meant to do, id assume anyway??

But they would have to be approved by the WPA and his case they were not.
