SRS...this stuff works!

i have to say my lhs did a perfect job on my srs repair. it feels great and feels just like my regular 1100 ops

[kovalchuk71 212]

Wow, you can barely see the line...They did a nice job

[hockeyshmockey10 0]

all of the ones that were cut have been perfect thus far. but on the inno i love it that you cant really tell that it is even cut b/c of the graphics. we did a tps at our shop that you cant tell it was cut unless you get like right up to it...we painted over the crack with silver...

I did a SL the other day that came out perfect as well. Of the dozen sticks I've done, it's really hard to tell they've been repared unless you really look for it. When you don't have to cut away a lot of damage area, the graphics line up pretty well. Doing a XX tomorrow, should come out nice cause the break is in the all black area, no graphics.

wow, they did an amazing job, hows the stick feel?

[hockeyshmockey10 0]

it doesnt seem any different. a little more blade heavy since it was a one piece stick and now it has a wood blade in it. but other then that it feels great.

does it actually hold for awhile

we have done about 30 in the shop so far, and all of them have not come back or even broke in a different spot. makes it much more durable.

so i was thinking...why not have the entire shaft have the srs on the inside? sure it would add weight but your stick would be pretty indestructable!

well if it would make it more heavy, buy a heavy ops, it will be cheaper and harder to break. performance over durability, one must take over the other

I was thinking on the same lines, stuff a SRS patch in a non-broken stick and push it all the way down to the blade, then pour in the epoxy. You could really beef up the lower end.

I can't find it on USA Hockey's website -- it states the safety section is being updated over time -- but the word has been that sticks must break at a certain pressure to prevent injuries.

The NHL mandated to manufacturers years back when aluminum shafts first came on the market that they have to break at a certain point. Purely a safety issue.

So can this auctually make your stick illiegal in a sense because it has been altered and will not break under the required amount of pressure?

I have a Montreal shaft that has that same concept. There is an oval reinforcing sleeve going down the legnth of the shaft. Thing is a tank.

Exactly. The shaft must break before the blade so that you do not impale yourself if you go into the boards stick-first.

How much does that cost?

Does anybody do it in the detroit area?

[hockeyshmockey10 0]

well we charge 30 dollars plus tax, but i have seen them go for like 15? ish...

[2-Keys 1]

for 15-20 it would be totaly worth it. i just snapped my Vapor 30 in my last game so i might try it.

This repair program changes everything when it comes to OPS.
