Curious as to how it plays compared to others.
Anyone have input on the TS1 by Triple 60

I have the first batch coming in about a week. As far as I understand from the information provided to dealers, it's the same tube, ferrule and construction, but without the cartridge system and they come with a less expensive Tiger Everest tip. Only 29" lenghts and only two sizes and the thread options are limited to the most common ones: Uni-Loc. Radial, 3/8-10, 5/16-14 and 5/16-18/VQR. I will let you know as soon as I have tested these. They are priced very fairly, so if they have the same good performance as the more expensive Triple 60 shafts, it's should be a killer deal.
Thanks Kim, the only carbon fiber shaft i thought was worth the money was a cynergy. But that wasnt enough for me to stay with it, and something in me isnt ready to give up on carbon just yet.
I will let you know as soon as I get them in stock. The Cynergy Shafts have had their fair share of issues, especially the ferrules, so I'm expecting TS1 to be a step up, they certainly use a better ferrule material and the tube itself is a more complex construction.
Can anyone share on the playability or how the TS1 compares to the other Whyte/Triple 60 shafts, Cynergy, Revo, or SMO?
Longer taper than Revo, no issues with melting ferrules like Cynergy, the SMO shaft belongs in the Rhino category, so a lower tier if you ask me.
TS1 has pretty low deflection and as mentioned the taper is very long and super comfortable if you have a long follow through. It doesn't quite have the same power transfer as Ignite, due to a softer ferrule material and a partially hollow tube, not unlike Cynergy and Defy.
I'm basing this on the 12.5mm version as I have not tested the 11.9mm version.
In short it's a step up from the entry level carbon fibre shafts and in terms of playability and construction it's closer to the top tier shaft out there, yet at a reasonable price. I think these will be very popular.
