The Riptide and Riptide CB golf shafts are the next generation Even Flow golf shaft. Even Flow provides a signature smooth feel and the Riptide looks to expand that with elevated levels of performance. The even bend profile within the Even Flow family can allow more energy transfer throughout the golf swing for more distance even at slower swing speeds. The Riptide CB shaft also features a counterbalanced design that can help golfers maintain their preferred swing weight and add valuable club head speed and forgiveness.
Key Features
The Even Flow Riptide CB shaft uses a higher balance point to give players more club head speed and forgiveness options.
Torsional Stability Optimization generates more stability within the Riptide CB without giving up the Even Flow signature smooth feel.
Even Flow Riptide CB is available in Project X’s Small Batch program with uncompromised quality and tolerance control.

Design and Technology
Project X’s Even Flow line is constructed on the “even bend” profile that makes each shaft feel so great. The Riptide series of Even Flow golf shafts have been reinforced to add stability without taking that feel away. The Riptide CB adds another layer of custom fit performance with its higher balanced point design. Torsional Stability Optimization helps deliver more power through impact without a harsh feel.
Our Experience
Counter balanced golf shafts like the Riptide CB offer golfers and club builders more options to dial in driver and fairway wood options. The Riptide CB delivers on exactly what it says it is – extremely smooth and easy-to-operate but still have enough kick to produce explosive distance in the right hands.
While I personally prefer a golf shaft that is more tip stiff than the Riptide CB, I can see clearly how great this shaft will be in the hands of a lot of golfers. The Riptide CB mixed with a heavier driver head could lead to more distance, more accuracy, and more club head speed immediately.
