#VSPEED TECH PLATFORM
In aviation, v-speeds are the standardized speeds for each step of safe and successful flight. With Mitsubishi Chemical’s new VANQUISH Series, #VSPEED represents an especially robust technology platform of six main tenets which contribute to the shaft’s overall performance and a singular outcome: an ideal shaft upgrade for golfers looking to add ball speed.

AMORPHOUS WIRE TECHNOLOGY BALL SPEED Amorphous Wire Technology used in the shaft’s butt section to increase energy recovery in the handle for more clubhead acceleration. This was inspired by high-performance fly-fishing rods. SUPER LOW RESIN CONTENT INCREASED FEEL Super Low Resin Content Prepreg is used to drive resin content low and carbon fiber content high for the best possible feeling lightweight shaft. 40 - 46 TON CARBON STRENGTH + LOWER TORQUE Exotic 46-ton and 40-ton prepregs used to increase strength and stability. FORTIFIED TIP SECTION ENHANCED TIP STABILITY A uniquely fortified tip section with outer layer material angled differently for tip stability. CONSISTENT FEEL DESIGN CUSTOM FITTING TOOL Consistent feel between various weights and flexes to allow for maximum ease of fitting. PRECISION CRAFTED INDUSTRY-LEADING TOLERANCES Extremely tight tolerances in weight and frequency; ± 1g in weight and ± 1 cpm in shaft frequency.
