I think they have Kerssenbrock type taper very thick gradual stiff taper, then sw taper, and the pro being the softest and longest taper

I ordered one shaft with their pro taper/ 12.5mm/ Kamui tip, and the other with their traditional SW taper/triangle tip.

I like that approach, to have shafts that are slightly different from each other. When your pool game is collapsed, sometimes a little tweak like a different shaft or tip can turn it around...in my experience.

Of course, there is also great value in having multiple shafts that are near identical too...

And that is how I ended up with about 10 shafts for my cue, I guess.
