  1. Kane uses a super stiff blade, but I think he’s one of the few.
  2. The Bauer Re-Akt ones I've found are better for rounder faces since they seem to run on the "smaller" side for me (with me having a smaller facial surface area). But I really like them when I use them.
  3. I feel like my snappers come off faster with my 1XL and ADV than they do with my Nexus. I haven’t really noticed a big difference between “power” though. I do prefer the way the mid stick reacts to being loaded, though. In an ideal world I would be using a mid-low stick like the One95, just with updated materials.
  4. Wrap. And the stick is garbage. Stores still have them on the rack.
  5. Wasn’t even aware there was a spec sheet floating around to begin with. Any links to that?
  6. All I can say is you’re attempting something many of us have tried and failed. Good luck.
  7. The TRUE rep who posts on here has been very helpful with deciphering ID codes in the past. Other than asking someone at TRUE, there’s no way to tell specs of a stick.
  8. 1. Kucherov 2. W28 3. Kucherov 4. Bauer P28 5. Kucherov
  9. Stopped by my LHS yesterday, manager said they’ve sold all of 6 of the 30 they were allocated.
  10. Admittedly I’m no aerospace engineering expert but couldn’t they have developed a different carbon weave? Or why did it necessarily need to bow out? Couldn’t it have been the same shape but tapered down or at least the same width as the rest of the shaft?
  11. A buddy returned his to the store after 2 hours of use. I didn’t buy one because it felt bottom heavy as **** in the store to the point where the balance made it as “heavy” as a 2SPro.
  12. Can’t recall it expanding but having seen the stick in person it definitely reminds me of it, more so than the QR Edge. I also doubt the veracity of Bauer‘s claims that the bowing out provides meaningful performance benefit, or even that the taper shape significantly improves performance. My conspiracy theory is that Bauer is trying to stave off counterfeiters (which was a problem with the Vapor ADV) since I doubt any have the capability to replicate that design.
  13. Some misinformation in that link, namely with offerings at senior. They have 70/77/87 flexes, P92 and P88 for all 3, P28 at 77 and 87 (not sure if also at 70 but I have personally seen P28 on 77 and 87 flex sticks).
  14. I wonder what the blade core will be.
  15. Doesn’t the Ribcore shaft have asymmetrical forehand and backhand? Maybe the E stands for RibcorE? Also, that’s a really green green. Almost like they’re trying to make the stick look ADVanced.
  16. Could always ask for photos with time stamp?
  17. The Warrior W03 also isn't exactly a P92 clone though. Just like the W28 is more similar to a Fisher-style P28 than the other P28 offerings.
  18. Spear constructions from CCM are similar to Bauer’s G3 which is basically a variable low-mid kick. The closest retail option to that currently are the True sticks (both X and A series minus the HT variant). Next closest I would say is the JetSpeed.
  19. Just skated on a Quad 0 prepped by the one and only @JR Boucicaut. If you’re not on a quad profile I highly recommend it. The skating is so much more efficient and you can add much more top speed.
  20. Overdrive blade now that takes me back to my USA Hockey Magazine days.
  21. I glue the end plugs in. Not sure what is meant by "as well as being covered to protect against injury."
  22. 2NPro kick point Supreme shaft shape 1X Lite blade Grip. I was going to get gloss clear but I don’t like taping the butt ends so went with grip.
  23. Happy birthday to me!
