Anybody interested in custom R2 XN10 Grips?

[Alden 0]

I'm placing a custom order for R2 XN10's with grip on them. You can choose the flex including the non-retail Stiff-Whip. Cost will be around $130-135 US shipped. Pretty steep for a shaft, I know, but the same cost as retail if not a bit less! Let me know if you're interested.

I'd be intersted in a SW

[Guest phillyfan]

All they are are R2 XN10s with grip, nothing else custom? No blades included I assume? I may be interested.

[Alden 0]

Yeah, they're just shafts. The only custom option is the grip. Haven't decided which type of grip yet, either the Hull or the TPS soft grip. Any preferences?

[rh_joel 0]

This is very tempting. I might depending on the amount of $ I can round up.

What does the Hull grip feel like?

[Chris_H 0]

TPS Soft grip. Whats minimum order on shafts?

[Alden 0]

Oh yeah, the minimum order is 6 shafts and I was thinking about keeping 2 of them so I only need 4 other people. If more are interested they only go in denominations of 6 so we would need 10 people.

The Hull grip is like the Inno soft grip which is a little bit tackier than the TPS soft grip. I'm leaning towards the TPS grip since it would probably appeal to more people.

In that case I would prefer Hull grip. Do they all have to be the same flex?

Nope, you get to choose the flex! That's the cool part. If anyone wants a breakdown of the actual costs, I can do that.

wow i wish i wasn't a 17 year old w/no money. That sounds like such a nice stick right now. The TPS soft grip is like the grip on the bottom of Rubber Response's right, the yellow portion? If so, that's like near-perfect grip. And also, i've wanted a R2 XN10 but again...no money. Also, how is the stiff-whip compared to the whip/regular? Is it like between a whip/regular, so around an 85-90?

[Guest phillyfan]

Is there an option for custom blades as well? I've managed to obtain and view a scan of the R2 XN10, but what will the grip version appear as? Differently such as Synergies and Synergy Grips? Thanks. When would the deadline be as well?

I don;t believe there was grip on the yellow section of the RR, just the upper black section, the rubber, hence the Rubber Responce.

The yellow part of the RR has that sort of "matte" finish and that's what the grip is. I was thinking about placing the order either next Tues. or Wed. The turn around time should only be 5 business days.

[Guest phillyfan]

Damn, I'll have to pass then, there's no way I'll be able to salvage the money by then. If possible, if you order an extra one, hold it for me por favor. 5 day turn-around is quite nice as well. Alden, where are you located?

[Alden 0]

I'm in the Detroit area. If you're seriously interested, I could hold one for you.

That's TPS' soft feel grip.

[Guest phillyfan]

I was requesting your location because I have a FSZ gift certificate for around here and was seeking to wheel and deal. No problem. If you can hold one, great, but don't bend over backwards for me. If you can hold one, no doubt I will get it, it's just a matter of when. When you confirm to place the order, let me know personally either on here, on by email as I will advise you my status. If you and the rest of the interested participants are willing enough to wait, I should have the money within 2 weeks, 3 weeks tops. Spring hockey starts back up this weekend, and I referee 4 tomorrow, so whenever that check arrives, consider it done. BTW-Are custom blades an option?

[EricG. 0]

Custom X1s or PTCs would be nice. I'm sure if it's possible, the min. order would be a bit high.

That helps, thanks. What does the Hull grip feel in other terms, Polarfibre, Easton Grip 02, 03, Sande Sandpaper? Thank you.

from what I can tell, Hull's grip is like the Inno Soft Grip...which is a bit tackier than the bauer stick'um grip...and its somewhat like the easton grip 02 on the gold synergies.

[Guest phillyfan]

Thank you very much for the information, if anybody can confirm.

[JR Boucicaut 3760]

I am not sure what Hull is using, but the yellow of the RR is the Soft Feel.

[Chadd 916]

The Jackman XNs I have, do have the Hull-grip not the old TPS soft grip.

[CAINE 0]

Definitely in. Hull grip, whip flex. Keep me posted.

[dgaronzik 1]

In, TPS Soft Grip, Stiff Whip flex. Keep me posted.
