The Predator REVO 11.8 is a carbon fiber composite pool cue shaft with an 11.8mm tip and a Black Vault Plate joint collar. Predator claims the lowest front-end mass and lowest rate of rise taper of its shafts, which it says gives more accuracy at both soft and hard speeds, more spin and a smoother finish than wood. The 11.8mm tip suits players who want more spin and a finer aim picture than the 12.4mm REVO, while the low-deflection carbon build is the main draw over a standard maple shaft. The Black Vault Plate is a cosmetic change; the shaft itself is unchanged from earlier REVO versions.

Players who use the REVO line praise the low deflection, the durable finish and the consistent hit, and many say the 11.8mm tip gives noticeably more spin than the 12.4mm. The main complaints are the stiff, non-wood feel and the cost, and some players find the small tip less forgiving.
The Predator REVO 11.8 is a billiards shaft made of carbon fiber composite. It draws on more than twenty years of technological innovation and testing, and it has an 11.8mm tip diameter.
