dreamingkid Posted June 4, 2014 Report Share Posted June 4, 2014 (edited) Has anyone experiment with Aldila Rogue? It's suppose to be high modulus carbon shaft made by Aldila. I've heard that the actual manufacturing has been done in Japan. According to the Aldila Rep that I spoke with at the Tournament: Most carbon is sold at this point and it carries a tensile modulus of 33 million pounds per square inch (MSI). This fiber then carries a 33MSI. If processed further, what is left over is a smoother round fiber that is smaller in diameter. Because of this you can fit more fibers in a smaller space making it a higher stiffness. This next stage is usually called 42 MSI or Intermediate Modulus Fiber. “The benefit here is that you can use less material to get the same stiffness, and therefore a lighter structure.” Well… the new Aldila Rogue shaft has a 125 MSI. How would this compare to Diamana X, Quadra, or Crazy?? Edited June 4, 2014 by dreamingkid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mjr. D Posted June 4, 2014 Report Share Posted June 4, 2014 I've heard of it. I think it's $1000. Supposed to be 125 modulus fibre. Diamana X is 80T Carbon Fibre. With that being said, I'd take a Diamana with 1T carbon fibre over an Aldila with 10,000. Aldila stinks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baddmnkey Posted June 4, 2014 Report Share Posted June 4, 2014 (edited) Aldila was purchased by MRC in 2012. Mrj Do alittle research before making a comment on how aldila stinks and Diamana is superior. MRC is Aldila and Diamana.

dreamingkid Posted June 4, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 4, 2014 yeah I just confirmed that with Aldila rep. He said that they had Rogue made at MRC Japan. It has the same material as DIamana X but the shaft has different technology. They only produced 50 shafts at the moment for tour players only.

vertigo88 Posted June 4, 2014 Report Share Posted June 4, 2014 No wonder the prices are absolutely crazy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baddmnkey Posted June 4, 2014 Report Share Posted June 4, 2014 I've seen a few floating around but all in X flex. Look up WillPeoples and he can probably hook you up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
