Aldila RIP Shaft The Aldila RIP 60 and 70 shafts
marked a step away from the Voodoo S-core technology. This
shaft, which has already made quite a name for itself on the
PGA Tour and is really designed and geared towards lower
handicaps who have higher swing speeds. These shafts employ
a unique technology that completely transformed the way
Aldila makes a golf shaft - this technology is called
Reverse Interlaminary Positioning (RIP). The result is a
lower, boring ball flight with minimal spin.

We have them in almost every weight and flex!!
here now
Geoff has them in his hands!!
Aldila RIP Technology: Aldila used computer-modeling
technology to really re-think how they made a golf shaft.
They were able to reverse the layering of carbon fibers on
the shaft so the outer layers were the strongest - doing
this drastically increased the tip strength. By
re-engineering the golf shaft in this fashion they
didn’t require as much material to create the
specifications they were looking for - resulting in a shaft
that was surprisingly lightweight, with good feel, low
torque, optimal flex and better tip stiffness.

The Aldila RIP shaft models are designed for lower
single-digit handicaps and professionals. To fully take
advantage of this shaft you require a faster swing speed.
Also players who already struggle with a lower ball flight
will have some issues with this shaft. If you’re a
better player and want a shaft to help lower your ball
flight, lower your spin, and increase your consistency this
shaft is for you. If you’re using this shaft and still
hitting it too high you can tip the shaft to slightly lower
the trajectory even more.
And boy do these look great in geek golf DCT or FAILSAFE 3

The Aldila RIP is a lower torque shaft with a stiff tip
providing the better player a stable shaft. Built for
stability, reduced spin rate and an optimal trajectory
RIP(TM) is the shaft technology from Aldila that provides a
lower torque, increased tip stability and better tip
stiffness control.
Our View.
We have been playing the 60 S for while, swing speed 104,
feels very stiff and quick release.
Took a while to the correct loading of the shaft, felt too
stiff to start with. But then wow, very very long, could
really power through the ball.
Very consistant, low spin ball flight. This is the shaft
for this season. Its a shaft that really lets you rip it,
when you need those extra few yards.
