Just got it in today. Great shaft. Very light. 170 grams, by no means feather, but a lot lighter than your average aluminum shaft. The grip is the main reason I bought the shaft. It's a carbon fiber weave that is extremely grippy, but not sticky like the Brine Python. I haven't played with this is any games, but some NLL player uses a variation of this shaft and claims "it's the most durable shaft I have ever used." Mr. Goss was a pleasure to do business with. Each shaft is hand made by this guy. I got "Coach" layered onto the stick for free. Looks kind of cheesy, but cool at the same time. The shaft cost $105 after shipping. I'll break it down by categories:

Lightness: Lighter than my python, but heavier than my Krypto Pro

Grip: Best grip I have ever felt. Much nicer than any Harrow or my python, and obviously better than your average metal shaft. The this grip shouldn't wear out like the grip on the Gait Liquid metal does.

Durability: I can't comment on that yet

Looks: I love how the carbon fiber looks on the stick.

Size: It has a smaller diameter than your average shaft. It's very nice, although this is a preference thing.

Here is a link to a thread that I posted pictures in. It's the very bottom post.

how has the shaft been working out for you? I am pretty sure I am going to get one for next year. Just wondering if it broke yet or anything? Thanks.

Shaft has been awesome. Absolutely no complaints. I would buy another.
