Anyone know anything about this?

Yes. It’s a new speeder.

This looks VERY interesting 

 

I was a huge fan of Evo 3 and 5 - wonder where this one fits EI curve - wise?

 

 

[BottleCap]

Is this a Tour AD HD competitor?

[third-times-a-charm]

Mid launch profile with some "vtc" tech that helps square the face but that also isnt velocore?

If the past holds true. Made for Asian market products are higher torque flashy offerings that cost more.

Regardless of how far we come technologically, I hope we never lose the hilarious Japanese -> English product description translation fails. 😆

"SPEEDER NX" is a model that is set to a medium tone on the EI distribution and creates ease of swinging. However, on the other hand, the new technology "VTC" tightens the torque at the tip and hand, making it easier to make face turns and achieving impact with upper blow."

Well you guys have got me for driver, 3w, 3w, and hybrid. Why wouldn't I try this one too...

 

You need to stop making new stuff already. I'm out of money....

[dlow206]

Pretty sure this one is going to be good

[djhgolf]

Also interested how this compares to Evo4… And VTC vs Velocore.

To me, just eyeing the table, these look similar to the kbs TD shafts

[getitdaily]

70x is 74.5g...very light. Wonder if this is aimed to be just a driver shaft...

The KBS TD is actually extremely similar to shafts like the OG HZRDUS Black, which means far more stiffness in the mid section and a lower balance point. The Speeder Evolution line of shafts were virtually all soft mid designs with tweaks here and there, just like the Graphite Design AD line, and i'd be surprised if this new NX model deviates too far from that since it is such a popular profile.

Slight concern reading this that it might be draw-prone in it's design 

certainly hope not

None of the Evo series were that for me 

 

interested in more reviews

maybe Fuji has a comment

They usually put more "exotic" materials in them as well.  90t carbon, full boron, MR70, etc.  Ends up costing the consumer somewhere in the ball park of 800+.

The Japanese stuff typically is less techy but more flashy.

Very similar but a touch stiffer toward the tip. If the left hand values are the same in the graph as the values on fuji's site for ventus then the shafts should feel exactly the same up until about 500mm from the tip, right above where "fujikura" ends on the ventus shaft. At that point, nx will be a tad stiffer. Maybe a touch lower launch than ventus blue.

I'm interested in the fact that the NX is actually in the same realm of tip stiffness as the Ventus. I'm expecting the 40 S i am going to try to be pretty stable for a such a lightweight shaft. Its actually going to be a few grams lighter than my Autoflex.

I play speeder V 661 s. Is this something I should look at, or much different 

[dlow206]

[JKingston50]

Anyone actually hit this yet? Wondering on how the 7x compares to a Ventus Blue 7x.
