I have no idea which shaft the cue in question has but there are different ones out there. The first cue had a 29" shaft that was quite stiff. The one I have now had 31" shafts that have different tapers. The thinner one had the ferrule removed the shaft hollowed out and a carbon fibre pad put on, no ferrule for my player. The other thicker 31" shaft has a bungee jump tip on it and a handle for jumping and jumps extremely well. This shaft on the butt end breaks well also. I'd love to find more of these 31" shafts
