Fujikura has officially expanded its award-winning VENTUS shaft family with two new additions for 2025: the VENTUS HB (Hybrid) and VENTUS White. These new models build upon the success of the VENTUS Blue and Red profiles, offering golfers even more options to fine-tune their performance.
VENTUS HB: A New Category
The introduction of VENTUS HB marks Fujikura's entry into the hybrid shaft market with a purpose-built design. Featuring the same VeloCore+ technology found in the wood shafts, the HB is engineered to provide optimal launch and spin characteristics specifically for hybrid clubs.
"We've seen tremendous growth in hybrid usage at all levels of the game," said a Fujikura representative. "Golfers needed a shaft that delivered the same performance characteristics they trust in their woods, but designed specifically for the unique demands of hybrids."
VENTUS White: Lightweight Performance
The VENTUS White represents a new lightweight option in the VENTUS family, designed for players seeking maximum clubhead speed without sacrificing stability. At just 50-55 grams in the standard configuration, the White delivers the signature VENTUS feel in a lighter package.
The 2025 VENTUS White is enhanced with new VeloCore+ technology and advanced material designs to offer players even greater performance results than its predecessors. This lightweight configuration expands the award-winning VENTUS family to serve a broader range of swing speeds and player preferences.
What's New with VeloCore+
The VeloCore+ technology, first introduced in the 2024 VENTUS lineup, continues to be the cornerstone of these new releases. The multi-material bias core construction provides unmatched stability and energy transfer, resulting in greater distance and consistency.
Key improvements in VeloCore+ include:
- Enhanced carbon fiber layering for improved stability
- Optimized torque control for better consistency
- Smoother feel through the impact zone
- Expanded weight options across all models
Availability
The new VENTUS HB and VENTUS White will be available at authorized Fujikura Charter Dealers and custom fitting locations beginning February 2025. The VENTUS HB will be offered in weights ranging from 85 to 105 grams, while the VENTUS White will be available in 50 to 65 gram configurations.
