Green Easton Shaft

[Buckshott 0]

Has anyone ever seen a green Easton shaft? I believe it was called an Easton Octane or something like that. I seen it at my lhs for the first time and it was only 35 bucks. Can you guys give me some info on this stick.

low end shaft comparable to maybe a typhoon i think

It is indeed an Octane. And adding to what kovalchuk said, it's a low end shaft.

Its not comparable to the Typhoon. Since the typhoon has glass/garphite/kevlar as its core and its also compression molded as comapred to the Easton Octane (green) which only has glass/carbon as its core materials. The Typhoon I think is 40 grams ligter and in my LHS almost 2x the price of an Octane. Bottom line cheapest easton shaft. Bad quality, if you are serious aobut hockey and want somethign taht will last and perform stay away from this shaft.

Think it may have taken over the Ultra-Carbons spot.
