Anyone Gaming The New Riptide Shaft?

[golfinbrad]

Currently gaming the Tensei Blue with pretty good results.  Not sure I can find anything better.  The new red Riptide MX caught my eye.  Thinking of giving that one and possible the Atmos Blue TS a try.  Had the Black and liked it, but tend to do better with a mid mid shaft.

Not sure if they qualify as "new" since they've been out for over a year now.  Having said that Golfworks has them on markdown for $167.99 so get 'em while you can I'd say.

I have an MX in a Cobra LTDx max driver. Absolutely a mid mid shaft for me, feels very much like the Riptide Blue. I too have had success with Tensei Blue. I’m a low swing speed, but spin the driver a little too much. If my speed was up, I’d give the LX model a try.

Thanks.  My SS is 110-115 but smooth transition and load.  Get decent results with some low low but don't like the feel as much.

Is it similar to a Ventus Velocore Red?

My experience with the Ventus Red was a non Velocore. Similar,  Riptide was “smoother” in my opinion.
