Does anyone know where one can read reviews about this driver in English?

Or has anyone here hit or tried the driver already?

This driver is still very new. Not a lot of reviews out even in Japanese.

I believe this head is JBeam's first head with a Carbon Crown.

Lighter over all weight contributing to faster swing speeds. I also believe this is JBeam's first adjustable driver.

Looks like they are using the exact same adjustment sleeve as the PXG drivers. That will make getting an adapter tip much easier here in the US.

Anyone got more information on this driver? What does it play like? Low or higher spin?
