Easton "si-core"

Recommended Posts

well i pick up a si-core and it snapped after a few weeks but i found something alittle odd. i had two si-core the year they first came out, when i broke them i noticed how they had the green silcone strip in the blade. well the one i resently broke was a triple I-beam blade the very same as the ST. does anyone else have any idea whta this is about?

most of the "feel"is in your head anyway. did you notice any difference when playing with it?

didn't think so.

lol, i have a sense that you have no sympathy for sakic..

I don't have much sympathy for others in general, but I just don't think it's that big a deal. If the stick performed well, does it really matter how it was painted?

Hey while talking about Si-Cores.

In the last week i noticed some players (in the german elite league) sporting Si-Cores again. I didnt know what to think... Either those were painted sticks or maybe someone "found" some Si-Cores in some basement room :huh:

well if its still under warranty, send it in and get a "Real" stick.. I know someone that broke his si-core and they sent him a stealth grip.

funny cause at my work, we got a bunch of pro stock eastons that are painted all orange, but don't have the si-core on them and you can see the ridges in the balde that the STs have.

Si-cores have allways been fake. All they ever put was a little green peice the size of a gum. It doesn add any feel and doesnt do anything at all.

I will have to say that that was my favorite easton stick. Had nothing to do with the blade, but it was the right weight and had a very good feel in my hand.

most of the "si-cores" used in the NHL before the lock out werent si-cores, but just a regular synergy painted orange to give the si-core exposure. even if it was a true si-core, prostocks wont say si-core because they leave that out to make the syNergy logo bigger.
