I came from a p91/p91a and like mentioned before if the lie is .5 different I will adjust the length by about an inch, lower lie = longer stick. The blade shape and rocker also seem to effect the length I prefer, for the p90tm I can use it a bit longer than a p91 due to the toe having the shaved profile on the bottom.

Lie makes a difference for sure. If it's the same lie, I've tested both measuring and cutting to match heel to end of stick and standing tall. Like you said, blade length does affect standing length. Unfortunately from my experience it just depends how it feels overall since there so many variables when it comes to changing and trying different curve patterns. For me, even a 1/4" difference in the exact same stick and curve affects how I stickhandle. I wish I wasn't so sensitive to such a small change. 😔. My advice is to be on the safe side and leave the new curve a bit longer than what you have and slowly cut it shorter and shorter until it feels comfortable, but the reality is that regardless whether it's the "right" height, there will be an overall adjustment period with the new curve due to lie, rocker, toe shape, overall curve shape differences. I personally have a hard time getting used to blades that don't have the same rocker as the p28. I love the versatility of the blade shape and rocker. I think my ideal blade would be a p28 shape with a Hossa pro curve. I really like the hossa pro but wish it had more rocker.

I went from a P88 to the P90TM. Big thing for me was the lower lie of the P90TM. At the end of the day, the length-to-lie ratio will be personal preference, but for me it's 1" for every .5 of a lie. Lie goes up, the stick gets shorter and vice versa

I never liked P92/29, I went from P28 to P90TM and haven't looked back... the larger blade area (and more square toe) with less rocker and less open toe makes it a more tame and forgiving P28 imo. As far as lie I haven't noticed a diff, prob b/c the P28 was a funky hybrid lie or whatever they marketed it as and with the rocker it kind of played a bit different.

Don't let the low price of the OG Blue fool you. This stick is probably the best bang for your buck My curve transition through the years has been slowly consistent. P89, P88, P38, P29,PRO9271, PRO9246 The PRO9271 is a P88 with a toe curve and a P92 blade shape. I still use it as a fun backup.

A lot of the old retail curves like PM9, E7, E6, P38, etc., are only available on the OGs Red and Blue. They're really nice too though. I prefer the balance off the shelf of the OGs over my VF.

Same, absolutely loved Trigger 4 & 7 (5 and 6 were fine but not quite like 4 & 7). I got a Trigger 8 and it was unusable, absolutely hated the puck feel.
