Orange has always meant counterbalanced in the Tensei lineup, and this new version is the first to pair that with a smooth, seamless bend profile. Instead of tungsten powder in the handle, Mitsubishi builds the counterbalance right into the carbon layup, then adds RIP+ tip technology and boron to cut twisting at impact. The result is a mid launch, lower spin flight with a straighter start line. Made for moderate tempos, and a great match for longer builds or heavier heads, in \u003cstrong\u003e50g to 90g\u003c\/strong\u003e with R, S, and X flex.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr style=\"border: none; border-top: 1px solid #e5e5e5; margin: 28px 0;\"\u003e\n\u003ch2 style=\"font-size: 17px; font-weight: bold; color: #222; margin: 0 0 14px; text-transform: uppercase; letter-spacing: 0.04em;\"\u003eWho It's For\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display: flex; gap: 20px; flex-wrap: wrap; margin-bottom: 8px;\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"flex: 1; min-width: 260px; background: #f6faf6; border-left: 4px solid #2e7d32; border-radius: 4px; padding: 16px 18px;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight: bold; color: #2e7d32; margin: 0 0 10px; font-size: 14px; text-transform: uppercase; letter-spacing: 0.05em;\"\u003eGood fit if you...\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul style=\"margin: 0; padding-left: 18px; color: #333; font-size: 14px; line-height: 1.8;\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWant more clubhead speed without dropping to a lighter, looser shaft\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlay a longer driver build or a heavier driver head\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHave a moderate tempo and want a smooth, connected feel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWant a mid launch with lower spin and a more neutral start line\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLiked the idea of counterbalanced shafts but found older ones too stiff or harsh\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWant a premium Tensei Pro shaft with the latest Mitsubishi tech\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"flex: 1; min-width: 260px; background: #fff8f6; border-left: 4px solid #c0392b; border-radius: 4px; padding: 16px 18px;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight: bold; color: #c0392b; margin: 0 0 10px; font-size: 14px; text-transform: uppercase; letter-spacing: 0.05em;\"\u003eNot the right fit if you...\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul style=\"margin: 0; padding-left: 18px; color: #333; font-size: 14px; line-height: 1.8;\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLike to feel the clubhead heavy at the top: counterbalancing takes some of that away\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWant the lowest, most boring flight possible: this one is mid launch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHave a very quick, aggressive transition and want a stiffer, more tip-firm profile\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePrefer a traditional balance point: a non-counterbalanced Tensei Pro may suit you better\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003chr style=\"border: none; border-top: 1px solid #e5e5e5; margin: 28px 0;\"\u003e\n\u003ch2 style=\"font-size: 17px; font-weight: bold; color: #222; margin: 0 0 14px; text-transform: uppercase; letter-spacing: 0.04em;\"\u003eHow It Plays\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size: 15px; line-height: 1.75; color: #333; margin: 0 0 14px;\"\u003eCounterbalancing puts more weight up toward the handle.

The original used tungsten powder in the handle and had a low launch, low spin profile. The RIP+ version builds the counterbalance into the carbon layup for a smoother bend, adds RIP+ and boron in the tip for stability, and launches a bit higher with low spin. If you loved the original's flat flight, it's still a great shaft. If you want the speed of counterbalancing with a smoother feel, go RIP+.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"border: 1px solid #e5e5e5; border-radius: 6px; overflow: hidden; margin-bottom: 8px;\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"background: #f7f7f7; padding: 13px 16px;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 0; font-weight: bold; font-size: 14px; color: #222;\"\u003eWhat is RIP+?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"padding: 13px 16px; background: #fff;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 0; font-size: 14px; color: #333; line-height: 1.7;\"\u003eRIP+ stands for Reverse Interlaminar Placement Plus, a technology exclusive to the Tensei Pro series.

That lowers swing weight, so the head feels lighter as you swing and the tip can be more active through impact.
