Stick/Product: Rbk 7k, Datsyuk Curve. Time of Use: 1 tournament (4 games), about 10 practices. My size: 6' 150lbs. Inline center and offensive-defense. Blade: Very crisp blade. It's way stiffer than the blade on my 6.0, and I thought that blade was made of bricks haha. 9/10 Flex: Regular, which equates to around 85. Doesn't seem very stiff compared to CCM flexes. Stickhandling/Receiving Passes: Very good feel for the puck with the 7K. Reminded me of using a wood stick. I didn't have to worry about looking down at the puck because I knew it was there. For receiving passes, it could be better. When I would receive them they seemed to bounce off a little bit (I receive passes with soft hands, so I'm almost positive it isn't me). 8/10 Shooting/Passing: The highlight of this stick by far. Slapshots are far superior with the 7K than any stick I've ever used. My wrist shots kinda got weaker, but snapshots increased in speed and accuracy. 9/10 Weight/Balance: Wonderfully light stick that is balanced throughout. I thought the weight might throw off the performance but it's done the complete opposite. 10/10 Durability: Still in one piece. The blade is lively as ever, shaft still feels like it has its true flex. Only thing I can complain about is the paint chipping on of about a foot from the blade. There is almost no paint left; it's just cosmetic damage though. 9/10 Conclusion: I've heard this stick was great, so I though I'd give it a try. So far I love it and would definately purchase another. Definite recommendation to anyone. Overall: 8/10
