ALDILA SHIPS BLUE VS PROTO™ SHAFT
Poway, Calif. – Aldila has begun shipping their highly sought after VS Proto shaft to leading OEM’s and distributors worldwide. Golf’s leading designer and manufacturer of high performance graphite wood and iron shafts has improved upon their existing Micro Laminate Technology™ by adding three more features.
The blue VS ProtoTM shaft incorporates Aldila’s innovative new Next Generation Micro Laminate TechnologyTM featuring Carbon Nano-tubes, combined with Aldila’s proprietary A65 Performance Resin System, using advanced high modulus graphite fibers, all synthesized into Micro Laminate TechnologyTM. The VS ProtoTM offers unparalleled performance, consistency and feel - the straightest, longest shaft that Aldila has ever offered.
“ The straight tapered tooling of the VS Proto™ eliminates the dead zones from taper rate changes found in 90 percent of shafts available on the market today,” said John Oldenberg, Vice President of Engineering and Product Development at Aldila.
There have already been two wins on the PGA tour this year with the new VS Proto™. “It’s an incredible start to 2006,” said Mike Rossi, Aldila’s Vice President of Sales and Marketing. “Our new VS ProtoTM shaft has been used by two PGA Tour event winners. All of our research indicated that the new VS ProtoTM shaft performed well but to achieve Tour success like this is a testament to our belief that this shaft is truly the best ever offered by Aldila,” said Rossi.
