  1. Easton Synergy EQ50 85 flex, Hall/Sakic curve Non-grip Time used: 2 months Appearance: I love the look of the carbon fibers through the paint. Nice classy look. Nothing crazy, but looks good. Don't think black suits the Synergy sticks though. 9/10 Weight and Balance: Without the end plug, this stick feels way too heavy to be high end. Put the end plug in with all 4 inserts, and it feels insanely blade light. Incredible what 20 grams can do to the feel of a stick. 10/10 Blade: Now, the visible weights had me worried for a bit as I wasnt sure how it would last. As of now it's still in place and you can really feel the FWT benefits. Very easy to receive passes, nice soft feel, players coming from wood sticks may like this a lot. Weights also prevent blade from distorting when shooting, which is very important to me. Really the perfect blade for my preferences. 10/10 Shaft/Flex: Now, I'm not a huge fan of the shaft dimensions. I wish they had something similar to the warrior dolomite shaft. It feels a bit to boxy for me, but it's great for those hard clappers. The flex itself it great for me. I'm a wrist shot guy, but i takes loads of one-timers as well, so the mid-low kickpoint is perfect for me. 8/10 Shooting: This stick delivers awesome power on all shots. My wristers were more powerful and the rigid blade maintained accuracy. And slapshots are absolutely deadly with this stick. Even better than the Total One to me. Would like to see a Gionta-like curve in the easton line. 9/10 Stickhandling: This stick is just like Easton calls it, a control freak. The blade light feel makes it feel like your ideal composite stick and the blade has that soft feel so you can keep you head up with the puck. Perfect. 10/10 Durability: Will keep you posted, as of now, looks fine, the usual love marks here and there. 7.5/10 Conclusion: This stick is really a great product. Stickhandling is great, shot's are powerful, and the flex is just right. The only reason it's back-up to my Dolomite is the lack of a Gionta-like curve. It matches my style of play quite nicely and the I ca honestly say I dont think the end cap is a gimmick. It totally changes the performance of the stick. Without the weights, it feels way too blade heavy. This stick improves the SE16 in ways I didnt think was possible. Just get rid of the ugly weights at the blade, and it's a great looking stick too. Overall 9/10
