SO yesterday i went to my local (75 miles away) lax store to get some rib pads the guy there sold me adreniline rib pads in the wrong size and they dont protect me at all so I might use those so any suggestions for rib pads would be welcome, but anyway while i was there i saw the proton power and i thought wow that looks really nice so I took some of my chanukah money and bought it unstrung (they said they would string it for 40 bucks what a joke) so i get home get some mesh and dont string it becuase i have some work to do so this morning i get up bright and early to string it but first i want to see if it fits on my shaft (kryptolite) and it doesnt and i really dont wanna make the throat larger so i decided to use the rest of my chanukah money to buy a shaft. I play attack and basically i could buy any STX shaft on the market so which one should i get?

well id immediately say a stx ti which i consider to be the best shaft ever.... but hey thats just me and it depends on how much money you have to spend and if u want a lighter shaft or a durable shaft

Get a STX Zirconium, it is a great mid-level shaft

i could get any stx shaft on the market becuase my grandma gave me a nice present $ that i was only allowed to use on lax stuff and i would like it to be light and durable but more light.

i was thinking about either getting a Scandium, Ti, or Premier but i dont really know if the Premier is worth the money

The Premier is worth the money, it is super light, like as light as a krypto and it is said that it has the strength of a Titanium shaft.

Dude i have the proton power too and it does fit on the warrior shafts.
You have to jam it on there really hard it takes a little while, but it works then you just have to drill a hole.

And when you said you dont wanna make the throat larger and you meant this just disregard this comment.

it should fit on your k-lyte, it probably just needs a little forcing, my p2 fits on my levitation which is also a warrior shaft, and it seems silly to make a head that dosnt fit on any shaft, iv always had trouble fitting stx heads on warrior shafts, but with a little elbow grease they go on fine

if you have your heart set on a new shaft, i held the priemer d-pole and it felt amazing, im really picky about the shaft shape i like but that one was perfect, and it is extremly light... i might have to finally give up my long beloved levitation and get one

Ddi you know that you can temporarily expand the neck of the head, making it able to fit on any shaft pretty much? Boil some water, and stick the bottom of the head into the water for about 30-60 seconds, then try to put it on the shaft, it should make it much easier.
