dddatsyuk--48 0 Report post Posted May 15, 2004 is it true that ALL of tps blades are weak? I got a new Brendl R2 blade about a month ago and used it about 6 times. Well today I got ice time and tried out a slapshot and then "snap". I know for sure that the xn10 blade is weak as a twig but are all the tps blades weak as well?

PH_Hockey2 4 Report post Posted May 15, 2004 My XN10 held up very good. The responce pluses should be good to because it also has the XN10 blade. I think that the older model responces had the weak blades Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chadd 916 Report post Posted May 15, 2004 The newer R2 blades should have the same construction as the XN10. Are you sure you didn't get one of the "leftovers"? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I remember someone on the old board had broken a "leftover" R2 blade at the hosel/tenon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Eazy_b97 1 Report post Posted May 15, 2004 I found my Xn10 blade to be the second most durable of all the blades and OPS I've tried right behind the vector. I've had 2 and both had tremendous blades. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kosydar 0 Report post Posted May 15, 2004 Like everyone else, I can attest to how strong my XN10 blade is. I've used it on average 4 times a week for the past 5-6 months, and its perfect. I've also had a great experience with my X-1 blade, its still going strong after 7 months. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tyler33 0 Report post Posted May 15, 2004 I aint to sure about tps blades. I got 2 p27 xn10s and I sold one. The other one I used for about 6 hours and the blade broke. But who knows with pro stock. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
