Like you mentioned earlier Base told me that their "Stiff" blade is the older construction.
They were ok, but I found the X-stiff better (more durabile) and the feel isn't much different. If you're concerned about the blade being to pingy, add an extra layer of tape.
I typically like a dampened feel to my blades, but hated the regular stiffness Base blades. They felt completely dead, I wouldn't recommend them personally.
Any experience with the HPR elbows? They look decent, but how deep is the pocket and the lock?
I don't think I have weird elbows, but I swear every pad I try slides down by tugging on it, except my ancient Jofa's
I just wish they were longer personally. I've been looking to replace my old Jofa's for 2 years, but nothing I've tried feels right and has the same lock. Maybe I'll give the 7092's a second look.
@Zac911
can you explain a little of the thought process to split the A-series line (HT & SBP) instead of creating a third stick line like both CCM and Bauer have? I love True products and I’m a big believer in what the company has been doing, but this seems like a confusing way to add a new flex point for the mainstream customer.
Also have you heard any good comparisons to how the HT shoots, does it shoot something similar to a Vapor with the softer handle?
Barkov for sure! That curve is so perfect and a jack of all trades. Will be a great curve for a variety of people and an easy translation from a p88/92.
I’d definitely jump on board with an order if it happens
I guess we'll have agree to disagree on the original statement.
I haven't played with a One95 for a while, but from memory it was more of mid kick point compared to the A-series True I use now.
In what way?
The One95 had a much softer blade and was a mid kick, The A6.0 has a more lively feel and is a low mid flex stick. I like both sticks but they aren't all that similar.
