Kinetixx shafts are high tech and can fit a variety of different golfers. We wanted to put it to the test, but before diving into the swings and data (video below), let’s breakdown the specs and what is available in what makes the Velocity such a high tech and high performance golf shaft.
Vacuum curing reduces resin content and Kinetixx is the only manufacturer doing this currently. What does that mean? Enhanced feedback and performance is the goal and getting there by optimizing dynamic recovery properties of the material.
The Velocity line features active butt and tip sections designed for the golfer looking for better efficiency and you guessed it, more velocity. Want to get technical? Mid balance point in a shaft that kicks hard and recovers very quickly. Mid to high launch, yet being extremely stable throughout. In layman’s terms, ever hear people talk about shaft feel or kick and not really translate that to your game because you don’t feel it? A few swings with Kinetixx Velocity and you will.
Have you tried out Velocity by Kinetixx? After watching the video from the THP Tech Studio, could it be the right shaft for you?

I wrote my answer wrong. My thought is no chance it takes that long, and you most certainly would have known. They are so fast and really good CS.

The CS has been impeccable. Shipping wasn’t cheap, but they got the shafts out fast too.

I reached out to them directly. Got the below response.. so I forwarded it to the customer service of the company that I purchased the shaft from. Sounds like they are doing some cosmetic updates and maybe they got confused.. I dunno. Hopefully this speeds things up a bit.
See below.
Thank you and congratulations on your recent purchase! You’re soon gaming the worlds most advanced utility patented composite shaft technology available!
Our LAUNCH TP Model #KGTP65+ D40 is available and shipping to all of our premier and authorized dealer partners. It’s possible you have confused the color option available. Currently D40 is shipping as shown in the attached photo. We will have a slightly different cosmetic variation of this available May or June. Other than very minor cosmetic change, the shafts are identical in spec. In fact KGTP65+ models have least change cosmetically.
Enjoy.
Hope this helps.

Just put in an order for my LD30+. Have an LD60, and absolutely love it (too bad I have to replace the head on it still (n)). The LD30+ is the [I]overwhelming [/I]favorite among just about all of the LD guys anymore, so figured I better jump on the bandwagon and give it a shot.
REALLY debated on that Black/Pink colorway. Stuck with the blue color.

That was my thought exactly.
Looking forward to hearing how these shafts play as a play driver for everyone! [USER=1579]@Jman[/USER], are you going to still build that LD30+ out and play it at 47.5″?
So.
It wasn’t until a THP’er or two pointed it out by UPS and their clown show sent my shafts from California to QUEBEC and not Oklahoma. Reached out to Kinetixx late last night and got a reply almost immediately.
The label was correct, UPS effed up. So they’re recalling that shipment and rushing me another of the shafts. Very very cool.

My guy 😎 I’ve always wanted to put a play driver head in a LD shaft, but never really needed the added distance, so will be looking forward to the review on how it goes! I’ve put a LD head on a 1″ tip cut speeder shaft once… it didn’t go well :ROFLMAO:
Shout out again to Kinetixx, new shipment is out there door and looks to be there Monday if UPS doesn’t screw the pooch again :ROFLMAO:

I went with a Sky Blue D30+. I was pretty tempted by a Ballistic, will try this one first. Chosen for all around positive reputation and slightly lighter weight than Ballistic was my reasoning. Kinetixx team was awesome to deal with over email.
A ZeroTorque putter shaft will also be in the box

Pink is Velocity LD30, Orang is Velocity D30+, different models, both driver. With Kinetixx there’s no tipping, so they have driver and fairway models which are different.
