This technology increases radial consistency, reduces vibration and virtually eliminates the inconsistencies found in a traditional maple shaft.Tenon Tip TechnologyThe i-Shafts patented Tenon Tip Technology increases the “sweet spot” of the shaft by transferring energy from the tip directly into the carbon fiber core. This results in a more solid hit that maximizes the accuracy of your shot.Radial ConsistencyRadial consistency is the shafts ability to perform the same way on every shot, regardless of its orientation. The i-Shaft’s Triple-Layer Carbon Fiber Core technology will consistently provide a straighter cue ball path, minimizing the need to compensate for spin and throw.Navigator Premium TipsNavigator tips are made using 100% Japanese pigskin leather. They are laminated and pressed utilizing a specialized method, which features a proprietary adhesive that won’t affect the leather’s hardness. This prevents oxidation, meaning the tip won’t get harder after short usage.
