Hi,

First of all, i know a lot of you will tell me''Personal Preference'' but i would like to know what you use!

I remeber: My best slap shop was in Peewee(13yr) with a JR stick Messier curve(TPS black woodie...)

and then...i get too tall...i wasnt able to use ths stick....Now i am: 15yr old...6''1...175-180 pound...using a iginla curve...and i'm playing with a R2XN10 Reg flex...and i just broke my 85 flex z-bubble...and i'M still looking for those hot big slap shot that i had in Peewee

I can't understand how..2 year later...i shoo weaker than 2 year ago..i should get stronger...

Anywayz, I'm wondering if a WHIP FLEX could resolve the problem...??

What would you guys recommend me...or what you guys use...with your ''type'' of body??

Thanks...

Well if you snapped your 85 Bubble... How long have you had it until it snapped? If it didn't really last you that long, go try a 90-95 or 100 since you're going for the big slapper. If you snapped your 85, I don't think a 75 Intermediate will be any better.

If you want to take mainly slapshots, go with the 100 flex. If you want more wrist/snapshots go for the 85 or so.

Agreed. If you're 6'1", do you add a plug at all? Doing that would make your stick a little flexier, so I'd go with the 100.

MICKZ--My z-buble lasted me 1 year...and it break because someone slash me...right at the middle of the shaft

Kosydor--I do add maybe 2 inch long at my stick(i.e:the Easton Stealth with all the end plug is perfect size...)

I would get a couple of wood sticks in various flexes and see what works best. Maybe a 5030, Z-carbon 95 and a 9930 and see what stick works best for your slapshot and go from there. Each of those sticks has a distinctly different flex and should give you an indication of what will work best for you.

your slapshot technique might have changed and you havent realized it yet ? perhaps working on it off ice will help
