i bought one of the new Brine titaniums (classic grip). i have been playing with it for about 2 weeks and the coating has come off, but thats not the real probelm. now on every edge(corner f the shaft) there is a crease that runs the whole length of the shaft. its not a break but its almost like the shaft is coming apart at the seams. its hard to explain. but doesn anybody know aht im talking about? and is this normal?

I think i know what you are talking about as my friend got a Ti22 for christmas. It seems to be some sort of sticker. I didn't try to peel it off because my friend would've gotten mad.
I'm thinking it's a sticker for the graphics Brine put on the shaft.

i tryed to get pics, but my camera doesnt have enough resolution to pic up the creases. i think i shouldnt have said anything about the graphics. its the metal that is seperating

Is it for every corner or on one? I've heard brine titanium is seamless but maybe they changed it....not all shafts are seamless. I dont think it affects the strength of the shaft much.

Return it to the store and get a new one. If the metal is coming apart, the shaft is obviously defective.

go to the store and talk to the guy... if he says its supposed to be that way then says hes lying...just to see if he really is although i doubt it will work.. if its not ask to exchange it. also if he still says that its supposed to be like that then i would go to another store or call brine and ask. however i have a titanium and it hasnt done anything like that and hasnt done anything like that to my bros

yeah, its actually falling apart. the place where i got it is an hour away so i have to wait til i get my liecense to go up there (9 days!!). until then i have 3 games so im just going to play with it and see what happens next.

ya, you can just wait for it to break and then theyll have to give you a new one. and then you can send the other in to brine for another one!
