The R.I.P. (Reverse Interlaminar Placement) employs patent-pending technology and exclusive materials to completely transform the shaft from the inside out. The R.I.P. Technology repositions the materials and shaft design patterns to maximize the flexural and torsional performance characteristics of the carbon fiber.

Through the use of computer modeling technology and exclusive materials provided by the Aldila Materials Division, Aldila engineers were able to completely rethink golf shaft design and performance.
-
The result is a revolutionary shaft with optimum flex and torque characteristics with incredible feel. In addition, the hoop strength, or cross-sectional stability of the shaft is also increased to provide greater stability near the clubhead.

The RIP Gamma version (skull with gold eyes) has a same low launching characteristics as the original RIP Alpha version (skull with red eyes) that has been PGA Tour tested and PGA Tour proven. The difference is in the higher balance point. The higher balance point prevents the club from becoming head heavy if it is either a longer club or a heavier head. The higher balance point generates greater distance.
