Crazy Type A & Type B Shafts New for 2014

Recommended Posts

Crazy Golf now known as Crazy Sports has been undergoing somewhat of a rebranding and realignment of it's offerings, It's now a division of a new company/brand named Single B. There haven't been any releases in the past year due to Crazies president being arrested for Insurance fraud in 2012/2013 which sent the brand spiraling before being purchased by a new Investor.



Now things look to be on the right track and quite possibly better than ever with 2 new brands and a more focused approach for Crazy Sports starting with the release of 2 new shafts the Type A and Type B which are both Made in Japan of High Modulus 50T Japanese Carbon. The Type A is a light weight, tip stiff, mid kick shaft in the 50 gram range while the Type B designed for the more aggressive swing type featuring a mid/high to high kick ( depending on flex ) in the 60-70 gram range.

Are these shafts still made by Crazy at its own workshop or are they being contracted out now? The original designer and a few skill workers moved on to become TRPX. Somehow need to relate the new flex designation to the last numeric flex designation of the old crazy.

Crazy has no shortage of designs, when Tario and I were last there they had shafts to last them well into the future but with the crisis which lead to a major drop in domestic sales then debt none of those designs made it to release... now they are back on track to release a few of them.

While Abex and a couple of others did leave Toyoshima and more stayed with the company and are working to transform it with new products and designs.

These new shafts seem to be more neutral and fit a widder array of golfer, much like the route TRPX took so they could make fewer shafts to fit a bigger group, I've already hit the Type-A in Stiff it's really really good, I swing 98 -103mph on average depending on what I'm hitting and at 46" even at 4.6 torque my fade is the perfect draw swinging about 80%. Swinging 100% it's a hook but who swings 100%?

Type-B I have not hit yet, gonna need to pull a couple guys together as at 80%+ it may be a little too much shaft to provide me a good result. Both shafts have the thin tip walls that Crazy is known for.

Next Crazy Shaft release is in November and yes it's made by Crazy Staff in the Crazy Factory in Adachi.

I want to get these new shaft's into peoples hands, so email me [email protected] and I can give you a good price on an already good priced shaft :)

The Type B is in the Maxima ST... it's stupid long and really tames the Maxima's wild characteristics, I've got some range days in but no full rounds as my main track was being re seeded and has just opened up, happy to play again after 2 weeks off!

I feel this shaft flex and kick but what's interesting is how stable it plays while having that much give, I do see how it's basically a heavier more stable version of the Type-A, so guys consider both shafts the same but in different specs for different players, it's actually 46T to be exact not 50T.

What's cool about it is I could swing at full strength with the Maxima head which is something I wouldn't dare do with other shafts, the focus of the Type-B is really all about timing, getting that club face back to square and putting on the power, Perfect for any club with a large sweet spot, I don't think I'd go for it for small unforgiving clubs as the main benefit of this shaft was I can swing out of my shoes and get a reliable result.

It's up there with the Quadra TP-V, if your a more aggressive swinger I would definitely have a look.
