robbie Posted February 19, 2016 Report Share Posted February 19, 2016 (edited) Have any of u gamed the Roddio S-Tuning Driver ??? It looks very nice and seems to be popular in japan but i can't find much info on it........The CT is measured and it seems to vary from 250-257 ...Its supposed to be similar to the original Epon Zero in feel.....Normally i buy it and try it but the trading forums are very unhealthy at the moment : ( Edited February 19, 2016 by robbie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robbie Posted February 19, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 19, 2016 i know Stew really liked it but, haha he likes a lot of things ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steven Lam Posted February 19, 2016 Report Share Posted February 19, 2016 I had a mid version before..... Mmmmm ..... It's got a after foamed mute kinda sound, too mute which I don't really like it, I don't have a epon driver so I can't compare but If compare to my ZY 11, even though the zy is foamed but it's still got a lively kind of sound, not too quiet and not too loud .... And I don't find it very forgiving too but the design is very nice and unique. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robbie Posted February 19, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 19, 2016 Thanks for the info Steve, is the mid supposed to be less forgiving than the S tuning ???? and ill guess the type S "low" is the least forgiving ???? Haha i love the muted sound, which is why the foamed kamui nitro and the foamed ZY11 are my favorite drivers !!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steven Lam Posted February 19, 2016 Report Share Posted February 19, 2016 I think the different between the Special tuning is the adjustable weight combination not the Hi cor material or anything, they should be made with same material if I m not wrong. I love the ZY but this one mmmm ... Really not my cup of tea... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robbie Posted February 19, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 19, 2016 Hmmm....one vote from Stew that this driver is incredible and 1 vote from Steve that this is meh........ 2 of the guys with the utmost taste in high quality gear ...... Just waiting for Tae and Bachman to chime in !!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steven Lam Posted February 19, 2016 Report Share Posted February 19, 2016 Haaa, this is just my personal preference, it still a great driver but it just not for me, But if u compare it with the ZY-11, I can tell u "feel" everyone have their own taste but performance, Zy-11 is defiantly more forgiving and longer.

robbie Posted February 19, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 19, 2016 perfect...i was looking for something even longer and more forgiving than my ZY11, haha i guess that is not possible Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steven Lam Posted February 19, 2016 Report Share Posted February 19, 2016 My ryoma special tuning with beyond power is closed but totally differnt feel, the BP launch higher, carry longer distance but didnt roll much, My Zy11 with Bangvoo, I can see the ball speed is faster carry distance lesser but it roll alot more.

Steven Lam Posted February 21, 2016 Report Share Posted February 21, 2016 How is the sound of the driver? If you dont mind sharing. It got a very low "pop" tune Not metallic .... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Romaro-Slut Posted February 21, 2016 Report Share Posted February 21, 2016 yes the sound is somewhat like a pop sound and u will know u caught it. the pop sound reminds me of the old callaway models. Very confident inspiring Its also very forgiving. Off centre hits travel fairly well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I felt like its kind of like the Crank driver ya? i not a fan of odd shaped drivers. i wanted to get it previously. but settled for the Roddio instead.

Cforselius Posted February 21, 2016 Report Share Posted February 21, 2016 (edited) Correct me if Im wrong guys, but are'nt these a pain to install? Edited February 21, 2016 by Cforselius Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Romaro-Slut Posted February 21, 2016 Report Share Posted February 21, 2016 Correct me if Im wrong guys, but are'nt these a pain to install? Buddy, you are absolutely right! In Japan, there are only 300 fitters trained to install Roddio. But i was told that a skilled fitter will still be able to do the job Anyone has more info than that?

Cforselius Posted February 21, 2016 Report Share Posted February 21, 2016 (edited) Sounds like you have to find the right shaft and stick with that. Thanks for confirming mate. Edited February 21, 2016 by Cforselius Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
