Tiger Carom-X Pro® No Deflection Shafts are specially made for models used by Adams, Hanbat & Longoni cues that use wood to wood joint. One of the advantages of using this shaft is in the joint technology. By using phenolic and a specific custom made Tiger precision fitting construction, we give you a better feel and balance, by eliminating unnecessary vibration and adding solid hit and more power.
Patented 5X lamination technology, using friendly American Gradual Taper for 3C and added lighter front end flex and balance points, make the Carom-X PRO shaft one of the best for added spin, when using maximum English and the only solid construction shaft that has NO deflection.

Italics are mine.

Wait.

This means I can't buy the REVO I've been saving up for. If the Tiger shafts have no deflection, and the REVO has even less--then the REVO has NEGATIVE deflection! Which would still be deflection, but in a different direction.

Sorta like static cling, I guess....

I knew those all those quantum mechanics classes would payoff eventually.

As much as I like Tiger products, false claims like this are an embarrassment to the company.
