Quick reveiw on CNT Stealth

[#28tz 0]

Are the blades on the CNT stealth the same as the new z carbon CNT blades? If so they might prove to be a decent durable blade :o

all I gotta say is "wow" the CNT stealth has all that I loved about the SL but a durable blade :o i'm soooooooooo lovin' this stick. think it's been 3-4 weeks? I'll wait another week to do a review but DAYUM i love this stick!!!!!!!

it's funny that after 3-4 weeks it rates as a durable stick. B)

Some people just have ways of destroying sticks. Guys a fraction of my size on my team go through sticks like matchsticks whilst mine last for a long while.

all 3 of my SL's were cracked at the blade within 3 weeks

EDIT: EVEN the one '06 one they said they "fixed" the blade on..

I have a questions for anyone that has a Stealth CNT or has seen one up close. Does the blade have the same carbon weave as the ST's and older Synergy's, or does it look like the SL's & Z-Carbons. Also, does it have one I-beam in the blade or three?

1 I-beam with the same weave as the ST.

Is your blade smooth or coarse? The CNT's I have are Pro Stock and the blade is very coarse. Another thing I noticed with mine next to an 05 is the taper as it leads to the blade. The front side goes straight down and the backside angles in. I definately get the shot off quicker and harder though.

you got the Z-tac coating on the blades

[Megamandan 0]

Retail is not z-tac coated. Thats the Pro's preferance (mine as well). I LOVED the '02 synergy z-tac coating.

Yeah i love my CNT stealth is doing awesome, best stick I ever used hands down. Only thing i dont like is the grip coating is peeling where i hold my bottom hand most of the time...very minor problem though :(

[j8Zt8r 0]

Thanks for the Z tac answers. I really like it a lot.

The other thing I noticed on these sticks is that the grip is very light. Where as wehn you pick up an older Easton it feels like there is a thick rubber cover on it.

[username 0]

so is this the same thiness as SLs and the 05 stealths?

[j8Zt8r 0]

It feels like an even lighter coating. I usually hate the grip sticks but these do not bother me. It may be different since it is not retail.

[Edge 0]

yeah the grip is really thin. It is beginning to peel on me, and it's just a small coat over the shaft.

The Stealth is an overpriced crap stick. Never again will I be using an Easton product. They might be good for perfmance but out of all the top line sticks its the least durable and even the performance is not that great.

[kovalchuk71 212]

Have you even used the CNT on yet?

Mine have held up better than any recent one piece I have used. I'm sure easton will be in pain because you will not be using their sticks!

I am pretty sure they won't be in pain, but whenever any of my friends will consider Easton I can tell them about my experience and they will think twice about buying their product and that goes a long way for a company.

[TBLfan 25]

yeah, but you're one guy that has something negative to say, everyone else freaking loves the stick! heh

[Edge 0]

mattopiela, have you even used the CNT stealth? If you are referring to the old stealth, I may be able to see why you don't like it as the durability was pretty terrible on it.

[Megamandan 0]

Mattopiela, I used to have the same exact outlook as you did. I was lucky enough to pick up my CNT for a great deal. I hadn't used Easton ANYTHING in 2 years. The CNT has totaly changed my outlook on those sticks. Granted they are the only Easton thing I'll buy, but they are great in the performance and durability area.
