LarrieNation9 0 Report post Posted March 21, 2004 I have tried many different OPS and none had the feel that i would like to have in a stick. Are some people just not meant for OPS? I use an inno 1100 with innovative graphite blades and the easton t-flex blade. By the way the OPS i have tried are the responce, Tri-flex gold, synergy,si-core, and apollo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SLy MaLLone 0 Report post Posted March 21, 2004 Out of Synergys, M1s, and Xn10s, I liked the feel of the Xn10 the best, but it is mostly personal pref. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mack 44 Report post Posted March 21, 2004 I liked the feel on the XN10 and the Novius the best. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LarrieNation9 0 Report post Posted March 21, 2004 Yes I want to try a tru 1 but i don't have the extra cash to get one and not like it at the moment. Plus there isn't much around here for hockey everything comes online and i have heard some stories of bad sticks coming in rough condition. Maybe I hear too many scary stories Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LarrieNation9 0 Report post Posted March 21, 2004 I think it was hockey giant or a site like that i have order 5 blades (inno graphite blades) and i have asked for mogilny curves and I have yet to get a blade same as another Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rh_joel 0 Report post Posted March 21, 2004 For me the True1 had the best feel aswell. Next would be the XX. For some reason I actually like feel of most OPS, even the comp synthesis blade. I've only used a wood blade once in the past 3 years so I guess I've just gotten used to the composite feel. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chadd 916 Report post Posted March 21, 2004 The Innos have great fell, but I have other issues withthem. I really liked the feel of my Response, I think the XN10 has similar feel but much improved durability. I also really liked the feel of the Hespeler Patriot.

Eazy_b97 1 Report post Posted March 21, 2004 I found my 1100 fused and Xn10's to have great feel. Maybe a tapered shaft with a wood blade may be a good fit for you, but i'm a bit surprised your having difficulties considering your using graphite blades on your shafts.

EricG. 0 Report post Posted March 21, 2004 Lots of people like the feel of Busch sticks. They have very thin blades. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dan_The_Man_16 0 Report post Posted March 21, 2004 Nothing will ever really beat the wood feel, it's just unmatched. Next to that I really like the feel of Inno blades, I tried a Busch stick a while ago and it was decent too, but I still think if their blade was somewhat thicker it would feel better, the super thin blade just feels weird.
