True, but was that really your intended context there?
Revo shaft now available for purchase

Very confused on how people can argue high deflection shafts are just as easy as low deflection.
There must be a point where its very difficult to play if a shaft deflected a lot. Imagine trying to play with a cue that deflected 8 inches over 9 feet with side spin. Compared to if you could have close to zero deflection like the Revo. If anything playing with a high deflection cue just eliminates certain high english shots at long distance.

What joint do you have? I'm looking forward to mine as I will be getting it on Monday. I feel that the 12.9 was muted & softer than the Vantage which got me disappointed.
First of all, not the Revo nor or any other shaft has zero deflection.
Second, since you have to compensate anyway it doesn't matter in the long run. Just get used to it and you're fine.
At least with solid maple you're not getting a muted hit.
Logic does not apply, gotcha
If you ever stop blabbing for a second you might try reading a little! The Revo shafts are made in USA! In Boston Massachusetts
Why is it for you so unbelievable hard to understand that not all people like the same things?
Some people like rock, some rap, some classical, some electronic.
Some people like low deflection, some others like high deflection.
Some people like the feel of a solid maple, some actually like the hit of a low deflection.
Get over it.
When was the last time you found a subject that 100% of the population of this earth agreed that they all like it? Let my help you with that: NEVER.
Again, get over it.

You can tell by the posts entirety that he probably doesn't read much of anything, except Fox News
What does any of this have to do with the fact that all shafts have some deflection?
Hey everyone look at me, I have two Gina cues!
Ain't nobody using bondo on any cue, ever. That type of material has very little chance of getting damaged from normal use, even if your playing reckless on a black crown from the scorekeepers on the short rail. The revo shaft plays awesome, but I'm not into the colour. I love wood. (I have no choice, it's my wife's mating name). Or maiden name as some say
You could have left the last 5 words off, and been accurate as well.
I’m a BK3 believer and would love to have a nick/dent resistant, super smooth, powerful break shaft with zero maintenance. I’m curious, Why are they asking for testing of the 12.4 shaft, As it’s already publicly available? Possible Review?
I saw the picture of the "ding" but I'm curious as to how that happened. Do the carbon fiber revo shafts dent or ding with normal use? I'm assuming no but I'm willing to listen to people who may have evidence that they do. I'm very careful with my (hey look at me :wink
two southwests but they still get dings over time and I can't stand it.
I understand that everything will break with enough abuse but under normal conditions, will the revo shaft ding up? That's the question I'd like answered please.
Like I said, I've hit with a few of them now and I like they way they play. They don't feel dead or muted or anything like that.
As far as deflection goes, I would guess that less is better in the long run because once you're used to it, there's much less adjustment needed over the wide variety of shots normally encountered in a game. It's just the re-calibration that I'm not looking forward to... if I go with the revo.

So far only read about 1 dinging (as per this thread). That does not look like a normal playing ding. Looks like a brick fell on it. However there are many opinions, comments and remarks by non Revo owners. Definitely ignore them until they buy and break one. I think it's safe to go ahead and get one.
Gordias!!! I want one! The black, not the white Alexander
