Does the super tacks kickpoint compare more to a nexus or supreme? I’ve seen people compare it to nexus as a mid kick but I’ve seen other people describe it as an aggressive high kick. I can’t shoot well in a game with a supreme but I can use both nexus and supreme whenever I’m just shooting around.

The seller said he is going to clean sticks and relist. They were trying to sell 5 sticks and letting me pick whatever one based on barcode but I wanted pictures of blade and shaft to make sure there weren’t any major cracks or chips
-
I found a new seller for 1x lites. They claim that the sticks were just taped and not used and also said that they’d take the tape off the stick i want. I’m waiting for an email back from Bauer but I’m not sure how long it will take. Does anyone know if they serial codes look legit? They are the last picture. https://sidelineswap.com/gear/hockey/sticks/5715594-bauer-senior-right-handed-p88-vapor-1x-lite-hockey-stick

Would anyone be able to tell me if these are fake? The specs on the bottom one don’t have “kane” and the blades look like they’re a different shape.

There's another thread discussing this curve so you may get more responses in there.
Does it start to open up sooner than the p28?
-
How does the openness of the P90TM compare to the other 3 retail curves?
-
Does cutting the extension off warrior sticks increase flex? Bauer claims that it doesn't for theirs but I don't know if that is the case for all brands.

How hard is it to keep shots low compared to the p92?

from other reviews it seems like the dx was one of the better sticks that had good performance and good durability in recent years
-
1 hour ago, PBH said:Any breaks I have seen are in the lower 1/3 of the shaft at the flex point.
Do you remember anything about the dx or geo? Those are the 2 other sticks I’m considering
-
Are there any differences in quality depending on where the stick was made or is it more of a labor rate thing? I see that Warrior makes (or made) their top end sticks in Mexico while everyone else makes theirs in China.
-
Does anyone else have experience with trigger 6/6 pro?
-
12 hours ago, PBH said:More durable than the T5 Pro. We don't see many of the T6 Pro come back with catastrophic failures. However, YMMV.
When they do come back, is there any similar breakages or does it vary per stick?

3 minutes ago, start_today said:I know this is a generational thing and I’m “old man yelling at cloud,” but those are probably the two worst possible sources for hockey equipment feedback. The Reddit hockey forum is full of, well, idiots, and most YouTube reviews are click-baity garbage driven by people who read the Reddit hockey forum. It’s people who know just enough about hockey equipment to completely get everything wrong, and do so in the loudest way possible.
I definitely agree with that, which is why I came here for a 3rd opinion. The youtuber did show his trigger next to his geo, but I’m not sure how much abuse it went through compared to the geo, even though he said it was less. Reddit has too many people on both sides for me sometimes but if enough people complain about it then I like to look into the issue a little more

3 hours ago, xstartxtodayx said:They're supposed to be more durable but I had pretty disappointing results. I used my Trigger 6 Pro for maybe 7 or 8 games and the blade started splitting down the middle lengthwise on the top and lost all strength. I was pretty bummed because it felt great and was so much better than the Trigger 5 Pro I had broken and warrantied for the 6 (which is why I didn't warranty the 6, pretty sure you can't warranty a warrantied replacement). I think the blade thing is just bad luck, I've had it happen on an FT4 Pro pro stock stick once too, but other sticks that I've had longer/used more have been fine so I woudn't let my experience scare you away from the Trigger 6 Pro, like I said it was a great stick with great feel.
It doesn’t scare me, but definitely gives me some food for thought. On Reddit there was a thread and 8/10 people said that they went through 1 or 2 sticks because of the blade. Also a youtuber said that the top of his blade split and would not be going back.
-
How is the durability on the trigger 6 pro, especially in the blade? I wouldn't mind feedback on the regular trigger 6 either.

2 minutes ago, noupf said:Don't most sites have last years Bauer models already on sale? Well, at least on sale bc the newest version of that model dropped in the last moth or so?
Yes but usually companies will put them on a bigger sale.
-
How long does it normally take for Bauer to put its products to 30% off clearance? If it’s going to be somewhat soon I’d rather just hope there are a few geos available by then.
-
Has anyone had experience with the eBay seller hockeyhorizon_de? I am looking to make a purchase, but I want to make sure I’m not buying a fake item from them.

4 hours ago, xstartxtodayx said:I hate that CCM started their retail "team" stick, really confused me for a while lol As for the pro stick Team sticks, I've had good experiences with CCM FT3 Team sticks. I got a few for just under $100/ea on SLS a few months back to try a new curve, all were the LK flex which is a pro/team option only, all performed well and were just a little heavier than the actual FT3 Pro I had (also seemed to be more durable towards the bottom of the shaft, didn't chip as much as the pro model).
How does the retail version compare to the pro ones?
-
3 minutes ago, start_today said:Do you mean the retail Team sticks that are like the 3rd or 4th model down, or the prostock Team sticks that are sold to juniors level teams, like CCM Jetspeed Team sticks that are rebranded ribcores/triggers.
I didn’t even think about this. I’m interested in pro stock team sticks. I’m not sure what other brands call them but the Bauer “league” or “team” sticks without a warranty
-
Can anyone compare team sticks to the top of the line in their family? I’m mostly looking at Bauer but I am open minded to other brands.
-
Will also consider x900 lite and s18 ltx pro sticks
-
is the p28 more concentrated than the p92 and the p92 is more concentrated than the p88?

Does anyone have experiences with hockeyservices.com or hockeywolf.com? Both websites look legit but I’d rather safe than sorry.
