z carbon in xn10

[Karly14 21]

i just cracked the blade on an xn10 tonight and i have a few extra z carbon's laying around so i figure ill throw one of them in it. Has anybody done this? if so, how's the balance/performance? also, where is the appropriate spot to cut the blade off the shaft?(i prefer not too flip it) thanks guys......

Since the XN10 is tapered, you'd have to cut off quite a bit of the stick in order to fit a ZCarbon blade. If you flip it over, you won't lose any shaft length.

ya i know, but i really like the concave of the shaft for my upper hand, the taper zone doesnt have that, i realize it might not make a difference because i may have to use an extension anyways, im really more concerned about the balance

can't you just line up the z-carbon blade next to the broken xn10 (with blade still attached to the stick), and just cut from there? that's what my brother's done with his broken synergys

If all you want is a shaft, it will work. Performance and balance will both suffer greatly.
