The BIG Mezz shaft thread!

[Kim Bye]

Yup yup just saw this too here are some details:

Thanks buddy I don`t read Japanese, so I wasn`t able to read the specs other than seeing that it came with a Zan tip (my favourite btw..) and that the ferrule looks like the regular NX one, with a length close to the one that`s on the Hybrid Alpha shaft.
I`m pretty sure I`m going to end up buying a shaft as I`m a huge fan of all things Mezz/Exceed.

Cant wait to hear how it compares to WX700

New information on the Exceed EX Pro shaft:
http://www.miki-mezz.com/en/products/shafts/detail.php?game=pool&cate=shafts&series=expro&kinds=playcue

From what I can read it looks very much like a Hybrid Pro II shaft, but with a Zan tip and possibly a different taper?

Ferrule is shorter in EX Pro so it could be lower in deflection than Hp2. With Pro Taper it would probably hit softer or more flex.

I wonder what the price is going to be, deff want to get my hands on one.

 

[Kim Bye]

From what I understand, this will be Mezz/Exceed's top model.
The Hybrid Pro II is about $350 in united joint configuration.
I'm guessing the EX shaft will be close to the $400 mark.

Wow sounds a lil pricy, maybe I'll stick with my WX700 for awhile lol.

I`m waiting for Caroline to give us some more info in this thread

 

[HueblerHustler7]

Well please keep me posted with any info you get.

I just saw on Facebook that www.cue-shop.jp posted prices for the new EX shaft.
The EX shafts costs ¥34.200 while the Hybrid Pro II shafts costs ¥27.900
So as I said in the the first post about price, EX will be slightly higher priced than HPII. That means with todays currency rate, the difference in price is about $50 wich is in line with my earlier predictions.
I'm gonna buy a EX shaft when it hits the US/European market and when the shaft becomes available in 30inch length.
Looks to be an awesome shaft and I'm happy to see that the EX shaft comes standard with the best tip on the market.
Now I only want a Deep Impact Pro shaft with purpleheart core and all Mezz break/jump products fitted with a Taom tip

 

[HueblerHustler7]

Taom tips? and what exact price will the shaft be in $$$ Dollars $$$

Not sure about the price, but close to the $400 mark.
Taom tips is a new brand break/jump tips used by players like Mika Immonen and Jayson Shaw.
I've been using one on my Deep Impact Shaft, and it' s the best break tip I have ever tried!

Interesting all I can find is their facebook.

 

[Kim Bye]

I don`t think they have officially open for the public. But several pro players are using their tips and I was lucky to get a hold of some. Awesome tips!

Thanks everyone for the kind words about Mezz cues and shafts!

Regarding the Exceed Ex Pro shaft - It's only been released in Japan and we have not received any in yet. We will have to check with Japan regarding it's availability and price. My understanding is that it's not as stiff as the Hybrid Pro 2 and the core construction is a little different. As we get more information I will add it to this thread.

Thanks Bruno. Feel free to keep us updated about Mezz shafts.

 

[HueblerHustler7]

No more info about the pro shaft? anyone give it a try yet?

 

[Gt2-To]

We should see the EX Pro shaft in the US by April.

I tried the Zan Soft on my Hybrid pro shaft, very nice combination.

 

[Marky Mark]

To Kim or any other WX900 user, what is your take on switching from a 314-2 to a WX900? I've played with Predator for about 4 years in total (I love the shaft) but I am very curious about the WX900. Please give me some input on what I can expect if I switch to the 900...Will the size be a big difference and would it be hard to adjust to the difference, etc. Thank you for your input(s)/ advice.

Anyone tried the new deep impact 2 shaft?
