I saw that earlier. I think it was just a custom xxx ops and someone cut it to be tapered. I could be wrong though.

It's been discussed several times that the xxx ops can't be cut because of it's true one piece construction. I am doubtful about that shaft...weird.

granted theyre from NY and theyre those colors, id say its from plattsburgh state . They used these shafts this past year, and guys were using tapered and standard

Im not sure if they were constructed the same, but i thought the XXX lite was also a true one piece and I cut it to fit tapered blades.

XXX Lite and XXX are both monocomp aren't they?

Another thing that worries me is the fact that he doesn't show the cut on the stick... could be really sloppy.

The pictures are obviously cropped.. why didn't he leave the cut part in the picture?.. this guy is shady. <_<

I saw this yesterday and was skeptical b/c he doesn't show the whole shaft and also you don't know if it's an actual shaft painted to look like a XXX or a cut OPS.

XXX can be cut for tapered, It's just harder to find the place to cut it since there's no fuse point. The only issue I could see coming up would be that the shaft would be too short when you fount the location for the cut. And yes, both XXX and XXX Lite are monocomp.

i guarantee im right

The OPS don't say "Pro Stock" on them. I'm with Yglod on this one.

I have an xxx ops that says pro stock on it.

Vapor 30 Lites aren't able to be cut into shafts are they?

[TBLfan 25]

I think they are but it's pretty difficult because there's no fuse line... or of course you can cut and flip.

If it was a one-piece is could be a VApor XX with XXX graphics that was cut. We took in a bunch of OPS "XXX" sticks from Wisconson. It has XXX graphics but the taper is thicker than the regular XXX or XXX lite. When mine broke I was able to fit a tapered blade in it. Still have it.

When I cut it, I don't remember looking to see if it was actually a monocomp or not, even though it said it.
