New information on SkyShark spars can be found HERE. I still need to complete the spreadsheet of what fittings fit what spars, hopefully soon.

I don't get it. Skysharks are named "2PT, 3PT. P200, P300", etc. How am I supposed to figure out which of the points of the graph represents a 2PT for example? Did I miss something?  |

The xPT series of tubes are tapered.
The Px00 series of tubes are NOT tapered.
MOST of the SkyShark spars take a 0.240" INTERNAL Ferrule. I recommend using SOLID Carbon ROD!!!!!!!
The Old 2PT tubes take a 0.2300" Internal Ferrule but I think that the NEW production 2P tubes take a 0.2400" Internal Ferrule.
If you are talking about the Relative Stiffness Chart, the SkyShark tubes are not on the graph........yet.
Steve,
Thanks for carrying my personal favorite tubes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
