Hoop Stiffness
So, you’ve been looking at the new Aldila VooDoo, and you’ve been maybe wondering what was going on with all the hoopla about “Hoop Strength?”
Picture a garden hose. When your garden hose is laid out straight, it is roughly round, like a golf shaft or, well, any tube.
But if you flex the hose, you will see that it does what we call “ovalizing;” the area where the hose is bending becomes less round and more oval.
A golf shaft, obviously, doesn’t ovalize to the same extent that your garden hose does, but it is enough that, when you put your shaft under load (like in any golf swing), it can affect the natural plane of your strike and reduce the energy transferred to your golf ball.
Aldila and others have been working for years to minimize ovalizing through maximizing ‘Hoop Strength;’ that is, strengthening the internal structure of the shaft. So far, with the launch of the VooDoo, Aldila has been the most successful at this, creating an “internal carbon-fiber rib system called S Core which runs the length of the shaft and dramatically stabilizes its cross-section.” They claim that this “innovative rib structure increases hoop strength / stiffness” by 80% over conventional graphite and 60% over other shaft manufacturers attempts at “cross-sectional stabilization.”
So, the gist of it: Greater hoop strength = rounder shafts = longer, more accurate drives
Got It
Increased Distance - by increasing the cross sectional stiffness, the degree of cross sectional deformation (ovaling) during the golf swing is reduced. Thus more energy is stored in pure bending and released into the ball at impact.
Improved Accuracy - with the cross sectional deformation reduced, the shaft remains more circular and therefore symmetrical during the swing eliminating dynamic stiffness variations around the shaft and delivering phenomenal consistency swing after swing.
The innovative rib structure increases hoop strength/stiffness:
100% greater than Steel
80% greater than conventional graphite
40% greater than competitor's attempt at cross sectional stabilization
