Buzz_LightBeer

that one was 420 grams, lasted about 6 minutes. the second one was nicer, Black/grey/yellow, 485 grams, lidstrom, shots were exceptionally nice, but that one only got a few hours before it broke in the same spot

the stick broke in the hosel (see second pic)

other than being broken, nothing =)

Gaborik Stealth "S17" and Cajanek SE

4 months and the sitck is still going strong. a surface crack has formed on the blade, but keep in mind i use it 4-6 hours a week on synthetic ice doing nothing but shooting. flex, accuracy and velocity are all excellent. not one complaint out of me. I'm impressed, considering i got the stick with the specific intention of beating the s**t out of it, and its held up

catchy, caught it on the radio the other day

Its been a while since i had anything worth puttin up here Had to use my Starskie since i broke my 7K give me the rock

no you shouldn't, Buzz is ashamed he only has 12 right now :( haha

Were those the ones that had the exoskeleton knee brace attached? Yep...the damn name is escaping me right now... Didnt they just name it Lindros'?

Marry the girl.....you found a keeper!!! :D Lets blame that one on the writers strike, eh?

Didn't the Bauer Vapor series definitively proove that one piece of equipment should not be attached to the next?

minus the grip

ill have to look at the barcode and stickers to confirm, but i was told i got 10.0 shaft and blade with the Sickkick paint, the blade is similar to some pro stock ccm blades ive seen (ovechkins for one) and it feels like a contour grip 10.0. ill investigate further. another fellow worker ordered righties at the same time as me, and recieved sickkick "V8.9" in the old paint scheme, mine have no "8.9 or 10.0" denotation on them anywhere

got as in bought, misspoke, sorry. took them out today, theyre actually V10.0's (they said they were the new ones, i'm assuming that means 2nd generation catapults, not U's) regulars run a little stiffer that advertised, the blade is VERY thin and VERY stiff. they recieve passes well, and the flex breaks in nicely after a few shots. Contour grip is also very nice. less grippy than most pro stock sickkicks/10.0's ive had. but they shoot like Rockstars, poor goalie this mornin never seen it comin

did they only send u 1? no i got 9 total

Yeah its a bit of a hook, ill get a pic in better lighting

Mad props to our RBK/CCM rep Joe, and Mr Lemieux @ RBK, these babies showed up this morning http://www.villagephotos.com/pubbrowse.asp?folder_id=1935776

Fury Sidewinder Marleau 85 flex Black w/ Blue accents 59.5" factory length First Impression: Very nice shelf appeal, stick is all black with a blue sidewinder design down the length of the shaft. factory length measures 59.5" butt end to heel. adult sticks offered in 2 flexes 85 and 100, and 5 patterns. Marleau: Most similar to a YP, but more open, 5-5.5 lie 21: Modano/P9 not a clone, 5 lie, more closed, like a SWD Bouchard Gionta: Indescribable, 4-4.5 lie, short blade, open heel, like a Zhamnov or Khavanov Primeau: Sakic/Gaborik cross, open mid curve Williams: Lidstrom like, more gradual curve and less open Feel: Shaft is extremely boxy and rectangular, very solid, not a light stick, but by no means heavy. Felt good stickhadling with a sweedish ball. smooth coat shaft with no grip. Flex: 85, feels a bit stiffer, until i began shooting, then felt like 80-85, i kept it full length so keep that in mind as it is a long stick. at first the shaft seemed to torque a bit too much, and i was hoping it didnt send my shots to the left. as it turns out it didnt, and the stick feels very nice to shoot with. Blade: very nice, didnt see anything concerning initially, shot for about an hour and used it in my game, and i didnt notice any major cracks scuffs or nicks. it is a little rough on the hands to shoot a one timer, or catch a hard pass. All in all I'm so far impressed, I did not at all like the Diamondback, but so far I would cal this stick a keeper, i intend to do a long term review.

got to use it tonight, had to remind the goaltender where the top corner was, seemed he'd forgotten

ridiculous indeed, whatd you get? my sydor says V10.0 on it, and the blade is silver under the red paint
