Fujikura kicks off 2026 with the new VENTUS TR Blue shaft featuring fresh VeloCore+ technology.
With the VENTUS TR Blue, Fujikura launches a new model built on a well-known foundation. The new version maintains the proven mid-launch, low-spin characteristics of its predecessor but adds an internal update: VeloCore+ technology, which Fujikura claims brings more stability and consistency to the game.
Fujikura: In-House Technology
As with the previous VENTUS TR, the new version was developed using the enso® system, a 3D motion capture technology from the company that allows detailed analysis of the shaft’s movements. The data collected directly influenced the construction of the new model, which Fujikura says is optimized for energy transfer and control.
Familiar Feel, New Details
The VENTUS TR Blue is designed for players seeking a consistent ball flight with an active swing. The new material combination—VeloCore+ and Spread Tow Carbon—aims to provide more stability along the shaft under high stress while maintaining a balance between feel and control. Fujikura positions the TR Blue between the VENTUS Blue and VENTUS Black shafts. According to product manager TJ Spidle, internal testing showed increased clubhead speeds for the majority of testers. This new model fills a gap in the portfolio, targeting players wanting a stable yet not overly stiff shaft profile.
Multiple Options for Different Player Types
The shaft will be available in several weight classes from 50 to 90 grams and flex options from Regular to Extra-Stiff. Starting January 9, 2026, the VENTUS TR Blue will be available through authorized dealers and selected custom-fit programs.
