forsberg91 0 Report post Posted November 17, 2005 I just saw the new gfx on the SL, and they suck. Instead of all of the ratings and weight where it normally is, it just says EASTON in a plain old white font. There is a sticker at the top of the stick that has the ratings and weight. I only looked at it for like 30 seconds because I had to run. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

forsberg91 0 Report post Posted November 17, 2005 It was just way to plain for me I guess. When you look down at the top when you are stickhandling, all that you see is EASTON, and thats all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mack 44 Report post Posted November 17, 2005 Do you generally read your sticks while stickhandling? I can't speak for all but I try not to be looking down when I'm stickhandling, let alone long enough to read something. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was just basically saying that if you were looking down at the shaft, as if you were looking down when you were stick handling, (which I know is wrong) all that you would see was EASTON.

mack 44 Report post Posted November 17, 2005 I dunno, I've got more blacked-out sticks than untouched sticks it seems so I've never paid any mind to it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
