The Tensei AV Series has been updated to AV2. AV2 is the designation on the shaft label which you will not be able to see if there is a grip on the shaft. But, there is a unique label over the weave that will tell you this is the updated version of the Aluminum Vapor Weave.

The True Temper VRTX is a Performance Fitting Center Exclusive Product. In 2019 True Sports, the parent company of True Temper acquired the Ontario based PGMC group which included the Accra brand of golf shafts. PGMC is a distribution company that services the golf club building and fitting community. This acquisition gave True Sports a first class organization to handle sales, service and training for its golf products which include the True Temper and Project X brands. PGMC also handles other True Sports acquisitions, ACCRA, AeroTech and Grafalloy.  I graduated from the Performance Fitting Center adding it to the 9 other certifications I can recall.

The Project X VRTX driver shafts are sold only to PFC club builder / fitters. The VRTX Red is available in 40 to 60 gram models. The VRTX is available in the more traditional 50 to 70 gram range.

There was a sense of familiarity as the first EI Flex Distribution Graph formed as I measured the Riptide MX. I have seen this profile before, in fact it is an archetypical design. Successful on tour after a very, very long time, the profile is available from several shaft companies.

The ACCRA iCWT iron shafts are unique. They are constant weight sets with 4″ parallel tips. A golf club builder, by cutting away some of the tip, can created the stiffness they want. The ACCRA iCWT is available in three weights, 75g, 95g and 115g.
