As of now Id saw the adv and 1nxl and 2nproxl are the most popular stick builds for the guys using bauer over the last 5 years or so. Also has more to do with the carbon they are using and not removing.
no just a 2x4 I cut a piece off of. Used it a lot on the high end figure skates before then I figured with the chrome finish on the step I would us it on that. Has worked great
