Does that make it a higher kick stick than last AS4 pro? More like the supreme?

Thanks for the response. Thats what I was afraid of. Would a p71 be an option? Pretty flat rocker and a hook at the toe?

I was just about ready to put down a chunk of change on some custom CCM sticks when I started shooting with my William Nylander pro stock Bauer 2S and have been doing so for the last couple of days. I can do darn near anything with that. The flat rocker the straight at the heel and that toe. Pretty good fit to my eye. From what I understand it is a modified Bauer p14 I believe?!? Is there anything that is fairly close to that in CCM? Is the p71 close? It shoots better than the p28 for me and pretty close to the p90tm. Thoughts?

Just wondering if you have had a chance to give the tacks a shot or the Novium? I know it is a busy time of year

I know you really like the ft5. I would love to hear your thoughts about it against the ft5 and sync when you get a chance to use it.

I know it is early ,but I have seen and held the new tacks stick but I have not shot it. It has been out for about a week over by me and I was wondering if anyone has had any experience or thoughts on it. I know the shape is a little different with the “v” shape. I kind of like the feel, but is it better than the last model? How does it compare to the jet speed 5 or sync?

I am sorry, but I just caught this now. Why do you think the 100K is better than both the Hyperlite and FT4 Pro? I have a fairly wide toebox section of my foot and a high instep (high volume) foot. I have tried on the FT4 pro in a wide fit and I like how they feel except there is not enough volume in there.. Would a Total Custom Ribcore with the Advanced Facing possibly work?

Have you tried or heard feedback about the Jetspeed FT4 pro? How does it compare to these Hyperlite's?

Is the Kucherov curve like the W71? or is it more closer to the the P28, but a little more upright and closed on the toe?

I know that the Laine curve has been available on the My Bauer site for a couple of years, but it can only be ordered with the Custom option and you need to buy at least 2 sticks for that.

I have been trying for days to find if any one describes shooting with them or any differences besides what the Bauer website says. Is there anyone out there that can compare these 3 curves, especially how they shoot, if at all any different. I know the Laine is more of a wedge and that is not what I want, but I like the P28, but I also would like to try something different.

The slightly closed toe, sounds good to me. Has anyone shot with it and compared it to the regular P28?

Now that it seems that we have established that flex and kick point will for the most part shoot the same speed, but feel different and release quicker....can someone tell me how and if the flex, but more importantly the kick point can affect the shot. IE...will the lower kick point stick be more likely to shoot the puck higher and a mid-high kick point (ultrasonic) shoot the puck lower. Is it better to use a toe curve with a Mid kick point and a P92 with a low kick stick. I have been trying to find any info on this out there. I am not good enough for it to really matter, but it is one of those things that is just stuck in my head and I would like some help.

Thank you very much. That is what I was expecting to see, but I did think the Nexus Geo would be a little higher. Sounds like a lot of glowing reviews for the FT3. How does the AS3 compare. Is there really a comparison or is the FT3 just that much better. I guess what I would like to know, does the AS3 feel really stiff and take a long time to load while taking wrist and snap shots compared to the FT3 or Geo?

By any chance have you talked about the other sticks that you tested, but were not able to talk about yet. I would think they would have been released......at least one of them I think it could be...Nexus Geo?

I bounce between right wing and D , but I seem to play more wing. I am right handed. I probably take most of my shots around the face off dot.

So.....I am glad I did not go and order a couple of custom Kane pro curve sticks. It is a nice curve, but was not for me. I shot way better with my P28. Now I will be looking at the Benn pro/ Kucherov or a plain old p92.

How do you like shooting/playing with the Kucherov compared to the regular P28

For some reason I seem to always have a bad time with the P92. I don’t know why. Maybe the rocker?

I currently go back and forth from the P88 and the P28. I like the P88 for the ease of use, keeping the puck in this atmosphere . I think the P28 for its shooting and long straight start of the blade.

Does it wedge open at the heel like a heel curve or do you just use a heel curve shooting mechanics?

I bounce between the P88 and the P28. I tend to send the puck high over the net when using the P28. I do not really like short blades. I was thinking that the Pro Kane would be kind of a middle ground since it has a mor subtle toe curve and is long and square. I do tend to shoot more towards the toe

I am sorry, I have been reading a lot about curves lately and got my wires crossed.

Just wondering if anyone had any experience with the Pro Kane Curve or the Pro Benn curve from the MyBauer. I am planing on getting a mid kick(nexus)stick and I am not sure what curve to go for. They both have my interest. I like the idea of the Benn being a little more closed and not as big and the Pro Kane with the nice straight into the mid toe curve

That’s what I was afraid of. Are the custom Bauer skates made in Canada?
