TPS Adrenaline vs Response +

[tmj1881 0]

I am looking to buy a new stick and I have narrowed my choice to either the TPS Adrenaline or Response +. I know the difference in construction and weight.

What is the difference between these two sticks as far as feel, performance, durability, etc? Has anyone used both and what was your preference?

I have seen the stick review for the Response + but none for the Adrenaline.

Adrenaline is essentially an XN10 with an insert in the shaft to dampen vibration.

Not to mention the Kevlar wrap. XN10/Kevlar

people must if they make a stick for it but who is complaining about vibration in a hockey stick?

A lot of people, that's part of what makes the feel suck.

Heh, My regular XN10 vibrates quite a bit if I shoot a slapper slightly too close to the toe of the blade. Which with my shooting skill, is pretty often. :lol:

It's problably the blade. MY xn10 shaft feels like its made out of rubber when I shoot (which is a good thing for me).

Well, the shaft feels like that too, as I have a Whip flex one.

TPS shafts tend to break down more than any others I've used. I have an S flex Reponse that is now closer to 80 or 85.

To be honest, I like that a lot more than other sticks of mine which are stiff as hell.
