I’ve tried them all from triple… I also tried cynergy/revo/go custom and many others just to give you perspective
With triple whyte I’ve tried maple, white pearl, white silver, and the raw black
Pearl is not slippery at all and as I hate playing with gloves I could not stand it… with gloves you still would feel that it’s not smooth
Wooden grain is also not slippery. Actually it’s worst than pearl. Barehands it’s unplayable even if you’re relaxed I.e no sweats and whatnot. I cannot imagine how would it feel with sweats and playing for a serious match or tourney. With gloves it’s also very rough. You can feel it
Raw black from whyte is very very very smooth. Why I said very three times? Because it’s smoother than all other CF shafts that I’ve tried. I use it without gloves and it feels so slippery even if I’m sweating. So yeah it’s good! And it is what I mainly use as well as the revo shaft…
Sometimes I don’t want too slippery so I use revo. Even tho revo is still smooth without glove but the raw whyte is even smoother.
So here you have what I think do these shafts.
I have a few CF shafts and I don’t think that the slippery of them is the issue, they are all smooth and can be played without a glove.
The issue is that CF picks up dirt fast without a glove and becomes sticky and needs constant wiping and sometimes that doesn’t help either and it needs alcohol wipes, which is too much to deal with in a middle of a match.
Of course, it is depends on table cleanliness, humidity and how sweaty your hands get.
I doubt that the Triple 60 is different in this aspect.
This aspect should not be in my opinion a factor in choosing one shaft over the other.
It’s about feel and performance that play right for you.
