Texas Dan's coping round-up.


If you're content farting around beneath the coping, not hitting tile (or even clearing the light!), then read no further. But if you're down with the crunch then let OI' Texas Dan school you on the science of pool coping.

ANTHONY

Anthony is a big lip--real fat like yer momma. You can hide your whole fist underneath and it's got a real satisfying grind. No Salba Sauce is gonna help you here; you gotta have some wiggly slappy trucks or wagon wheels Wagon Wheels are a popular biscuit in Australia, Canada, and the United Kingdom which have a marshmallow centre and are covered in a chocolate flavoured coating. They are produced and distributed by Burton's Foods.  to get ahold of this one. Real common in San Diego San Diego (săn dēā`gō), city (1990 pop. 1,110,549), seat of San Diego co., S Calif., on San Diego Bay; inc. 1850. San Diego includes the unincorporated communities of La Jolla and Spring Valley. Coronado is across the bay.  holes.

BRICK

Although aesthetically pleasing, experienced pool hustlers know that brick can hurt ya. One false move and yer bucked off. It usually sticks out as much as AZ Slab, but with the added hazard of mortar gaps between each brick that your kingpins get stuck in perfectly.

SPIT GUTTER

Also called Split Gutter by deaf and dumb DEAF AND DUMB. No definition is requisite, as the words are sufficiently known. A person deaf and dumb is doli capax but with such persons who have not been educated, and who cannot communicate, their ideas in writing, a difficulty sometimes arises on the trial.  fellas, this one is quite a unique edge. Half regular coping and half tile, the two are separated by an eight-inch gutter with the tile edge in front. Found on squares in every state, you can also spot the spit on fine round holes like SD's infamous El Cortez The El Cortez, a hotel and casino is a relatively small downtown Las Vegas gaming venue a block from the Fremont Street Experience and Las Vegas Boulevard. The official marketing slogan has been "Where locals come to play" since the El Cortez has traditionally attracted Las Vegas . Folks say the gutter was actually used to spit in, but I don't recommend spittin' and swimmin'.

LADY FINGER

My personal favorite. She's dainty and thin, but makes a high-pitched growl when you get on top of her. Looks like Anthony Jr's little sister.

TILE

The Master pool company has this construction down. Similar to AZ Slab but instead of soft, chalky stucco stucco (stŭk`ō), in architecture, a term loosely applied to various kinds of plasterwork, both exterior and interior. It now commonly refers to a plaster or cement used for the external coating of buildings, most frequently employed in  that'll stop any bandito in his tracks, it's got a curved slippery tile face that's almost too easy to grind and slide. After heavy sessioning, the tile breaks apart, leaving a sharp concrete and tile edge that'll send your pussy pus·sy
adj.
Containing or resembling pus.

term of endearment addressed to a cat. Called also moggy.

BULL NOSE

The Pemrose company in California has been growing this style for decades, making it your most widely used pool coping. Real popular with such pool builders as Blue Haven Blue Haven may refer to:
  • Blue Haven, New South Wales - A suburb on the Central Coast of New South Wales, Australia
  • Blue Haven, Gauteng - A suburb in Johannesburg, South Africa
, Sunset, Blue Line and Hoams, it's the lip you think of when you think of pool coping.

SLAB

Slate rock that sticks straight out at a 90 degree angle sometimes five inches or more. Either break it off with a hammer or have your surf/slash like Dave Hackett.
