It arrives assembled with your choice of adapter and grip, ready to attach to your driver or fairway wood head.

Who It's For

Good fit if you...

  • Swing your driver at about 60 to 70 mph and want more carry
  • Want a higher launch and a higher peak height
  • Feel like you're working too hard to swing a heavier shaft
  • Want the lightest Air Speeder we build, at 44.5 g

Not the right fit if you...

  • Swing faster than about 75 mph: a 44.5 g senior flex can cost you control
  • Need an R3, R or S flex: the current Air Speeder is built in all four
  • Already launch the ball too high and balloon it: you need a heavier, more stable shaft

How It Plays

A lighter shaft is easier to swing faster, and more speed means more ball speed and carry. At 44.5 g this is one of the lightest driver shafts we build, and the R2 flex is the softest in Fujikura's original Air Speeder 40 line.

Fujikura rates it high launch, mid spin with a low bend point, so the shaft helps the ball up without the extra spin of the current Air Speeder, which Fujikura rates high spin.

Torque is 8.5, with a tip flex of 156 and a butt flex of 122 on Fujikura's scale. These are the original 2020 graphics (silver with the red Air Speeder logo), the version that came before the 2025 redesign.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between the 2020 graphics and the current Air Speeder?

The 2020 graphics are the original silver-and-red version. Fujikura rates it high launch, mid spin, with the R2 at 44.5 g and 8.5 torque. Fujikura redesigned the Air Speeder for 2025 with new graphics and rates that version high launch, high spin, with the R2 at 48.5 g and 8.0 torque. The current version is also built in R3, R and S.

Why is the option called 45 Series when the shaft says 40?

Fujikura printed "40" on this model and called it the Air Speeder 40. We label our options by weight, and at 44.5 g this R2 falls in our 45 Series. It is the same shaft.

Who is the R2 flex for?

R2 is a senior flex. Our fitting guidance is a driver swing speed of about 60 to 70 mph. Fujikura publishes no swing speed range. Not sure? Contact us before you order.

Can this shaft be built for a fairway wood?

Yes. Select the fairway wood option and your adapter when adding to cart. Fairway builds can be cut from 38.5" to 43.5" adapter tip to grip, or built to the standard length for your head.

What's included with this assembled shaft?

The shaft arrives with your OEM-compatible adapter tip installed (Callaway, Cleveland, Cobra, Krank, Mizuno, Ping, PXG, Srixon, TaylorMade, Titleist, Tour Edge or Wilson; see all shaft adapters) and your chosen grip installed. Club head is not included. Just attach to your driver or fairway wood head and play. See full assembled shaft details.

Can I return an assembled shaft?

No. Each assembled shaft is built to your specs, so we can't restock it. Double-check your flex, length, grip and adapter before you order, and contact us if you'd like help confirming them.

Not sure which shaft is right for your game?

Text our shaft experts at (818) 473-9086 before you order. We've been fitting golfers since 1991 and are happy to talk through your swing speed, current shaft, and what you're trying to fix.
