Mitsubishi Golf has launched their new counterbalanced Tensei 1K Pro Orange RIP+ shafts. These new shafts feature an aluminum vapor (AV) in the handle section, 1K carbon fiber, and RIP+ technology strategically positioned in the traditionally high-twist tip-section of the shaft to minimize torque while providing exceptional feel.
Within the Tensei family Orange has earned a reputation as the profile trusted by golfers looking to maximize speed through modern driver setups. And the all new 2026 Tensei 1K Pro Orange RIP+ is designed to help golfers unlock more performance from today’s longer, faster, and more forgiving driver configurations.
Its advanced counterbalanced design allows fitters and players to explore longer playing lengths and heavier clubhead setups while maintaining balance, consistency, and control throughout the swing.
For 2026 premium 1K Carbon Cloth and Boron Fiber work together to enhance stability and improve overall playability, helping golfers swing with confidence while getting more out of modern equipment. The result is a shaft engineered to make speed-focused driver builds easier to fit, easier to control, and more effective on the course.
And early testing takeaways reveal an even bigger story than launch, spin, or ball speed. The counterbalanced design helps maximize modern driver setups while maintaining speed and creating a more playable launch and spin window. Beyond speed, the profile appears to help convert speed into more usable performance.
One of the most encouraging findings has been improved consistency in how the club is delivered into impact. Early testing has shown tighter start lines, improved face control, and more repeatable impact conditions. With top amateurs and tour players Mitsubishi saw positive results across multiple swing types and delivery patterns indicating versatility to fit a broad range of golfers looking for a combination of speed, stability, and consistency.
Offered exclusively in the Tensei Pro series shafts, Reverse Interlaminar Placement Plus (RIP+) enhances stability and minimizes torque utilizing both boron in the tip and a proprietary carbon fiber that is five times thinner and lighter than conventional material. This ultra-thin 20FAW material technology is strategically positioned in the traditionally high-twist tip-section of the shaft and blends seamlessly with the other layers of the shaft, providing exceptional feel, precision, and pro-grade performance control in every swing.
