NEW Aldila RIP-X Prototype Shaft Pics and Infomation

Low launch, low spin, low torque. Obviously it has Mamba technology and already has won on Tour.

We have them in stock and price is $250

60, 70 and 80 TX and S flex

I look forward to reading about the new shafts coming. However, my urge to buy and try new stuff is shelved for the foreseeable future.

Rogue White 130... ?

Aldila has REALLY come with the heat this last year. It seems like every product is just fantastic for the players that each product fits.

Curious to see how they all compare. Meaning the 130 White and Black, RIP X, and Graphene Green.

This is the shaft that Wiesberger is using, right?

Rip Alpha or Phenom NL with more feel due to materials? Maybe Aldila’s version of the t1100?

Based off the Alpha profile with Mamba tech and a couple other things. Think of it as sort of a t1100 crossed with a Black Mamba. Feel is tight, launch is flat, and the spin is low. To me it feels a lot like a Black Mamba but with super low torque so the feeling at impact is crisp and powerful, but does have some life to it if you load it up. It's not as brittle feeling as a t1100, but along the same type of launch and spin.

How is it compared to the Green Graphene?

Pretty cool shaft for the person it fits. Not going to be what I need, but MAMBA tech is legit and the Alpha profile was famous for low launch/spin. Probably my favorite paint job so far this year.

Pretty Badass looking shaft!

Graphene Green is going to feel just a bit different, and this new RIP will give you more of that lower torque type feel that really gives you the confidence to go after it. If I'd say there was one major difference in feel it would be that green feels maybe a bit smoother on release. RIPX is going to have that feeling we describe as being "right there". What that means is you never feel the head lagging on the load or the head snapping shut on release. You always feel in complete control no matter how aggressive the swing. It's definitely one that likes to fade.

We are going to do some higher than normal headweight testing as well to see what type of results that will give. With this level of tip stability, I suspect it should still be ridiculously accurate.

RIP is back! Remember when the original came out in the day? It was the hottest thing since sliced bread.

Well, if you ever need a higher than normal head weight tester, I'm your guy. Would be interesting to see if there is a shaft out there best suited for those of us who choose to play under 44".

I will say this one is not as harsh feeling as the original. The Mamba tech really helps with the feel, even though it is still pretty tight.

I love my black mamba 70TX. If this cuts spin and feels as stable or more I’m in!

Sounds like you'd love it.

We will be doing a little comparison against original RIP, T1100, and couple others early next week. I will also be posting some more detailed thoughts on it.

I know I know...but I actually enjoy testing to give guys here insight before they buy - if I can help, so be it.

Love the look. Looking forward to some numbers.

Let me know if you want to give one a run.

Love Aldila shafts. I just put a Rogue Silver 60tx in my Ping G410 LST but I have the RIP Phenom's in my woods. Great shaft with great feel and characteristics to it! Excited to see what happens here!

> @Putn4par1 said:

> How would this compare to the Rogue Silver 130 MSI? I am currently gaming the 70 TX tipped 1/2" in a G410 LST cranked down to 8 degrees, but I still need something lower launching. SS is right around 115-120 mph.

It launches lower than the Rogue Silver and has that lower torque feel of a very stiff tip section. Very low spin and flat ball flight. Shoot me a message and we can discuss if this or something else might be the perfect choice for you.

That redesign was a nightmare. It singlehandedly ruined wrx for me for 6 months.

I've heard that from a lot of customers. It really hurt business for a few months too. Thankfully that phase is over.
