hespeler nemesis

[aarias19 0]

i don't think i caught any reviews on it on cb, though i don't think i checked too throroughly... i've heard about the nemesis alpha on this site, but anybody tried the hespeler nemesis? looked at hockeygalore.ca and think maybe the pro4 might be a nice curve. anyone tried it?

I know that JR said he had one at his shop last week. I am sure he will have something to say about it.

Ask Buzz or Lester8.

Both Ljack05 and I have the Alpha Nemesis. He's asking about the older Nemesis (the Nemesis 2.0 now)

yeah, i was asking about the older one, cuz i saw it on hockeygalore. just curious if anyone liked it. i remember someone from europe had one on CB.

I didn't care for it too much. The main negative was too much vibration when making contact with the puck, which resulted in poor feel for the puck. Shot performance was ok, but not that good.

I thought I would've liked it because of their blade construction and the shaft type (concave). Also the soft grip was a plus. But something didn't translate it into a nice OPS. I'd like to try their new shaft with an Inno blade and see if I get the feel that I was expecting.

IMO all the Hespeler OPS I've tried have sucked. The new Alpha Nemisis seems pretty sweet though.

I liked the feel on the Patriot, just not as much pop on the shot as other OPS. The Alpha has been great.

ick, vibration me no likey. were the soft grip zones just like the patriot's? where you have to have your hands in a certain place to get the grip? i always thought that was bogus. i guess i'm just gonna have to wait for alpha. thanks for the feedback guys! your reviews were far more helpful than "great stick after two shots" reviews.

i liked it, its comparably light compard to other OPS, and the grip is nice, havent used it enough to comment on durability or anything yet
