"Iconic ultra-low launch, low-spin tour shaft with spin rates around 1800 rpm. For hard, aggressive swingers who need to take spin off and flight it down."
Introduced in 2010, the RIP Alpha quickly became a fixture in tour bags, and in 2011 Aldila was the number one graphite shaft in play on the PGA Tour by the Darrell Survey's count, holding that spot through four consecutive FedEx Cup Playoff seasons. It was the original shaft to pair genuinely low torque with a stiff, stable tip section, and its low-launch, low-spin character set the template that shafts like the later Rogue and RIP Phenom would build on.
Hard, aggressive swingers with real speed who need to take spin off and keep flight down.
Was the PGA Tour's most-played graphite wood shaft for multiple consecutive seasons in the early 2010s, per Darrell Survey counts, during its run at the top of tour bags.
Launched in 2010 and discontinued around 2013, competing directly with Graphite Design's Tour AD and early Fujikura Speeder TR shafts for the low-spin tour segment.
A shaft is felt, not read. Book a bay and see what a launch profile actually does to your numbers.
