Fujikura kicks off 2026 with the new VENTUS TR Blue shaft featuring fresh VeloCore+ technology.
With the VENTUS TR Blue, Fujikura introduces a new model built on a familiar foundation. This new version maintains the proven mid-launch/low-spin characteristics of its predecessor but adds an internal update: VeloCore+ technology, which aims to bring more stability and consistency to play, according to Fujikura.
Fujikura: In-House Technology
Like 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 shaft movement. The data collected was directly integrated into the design of the new model, which Fujikura says is optimized for energy transfer and control.
Familiar Feel, New Details
The VENTUS TR Blue is designed, according to the manufacturer, especially for players seeking a consistent ball flight with an active swing style. The new material combination — VeloCore+ and Spread Tow Carbon — aims to provide more stability in the shaft during high stress. Fujikura says the balance between feel and control remains intact. The company positions the new TR Blue between the VENTUS Blue and VENTUS Black models. Product manager TJ Spidle noted that internal tests showed increased clubhead speed for the majority of testers. This new model fills a gap in the portfolio and is made for those who want a stable yet not overly stiff shaft profile.
Multiple Options for Different Player Types
The shaft will be offered in several weight classes ranging from 50 to 90 grams, with flex options from Regular to Extra-Stiff. The VENTUS TR Blue is available in stores starting January 9, 2026, through authorized dealers and selected custom-fit programs.
