Easton SL Pro Stock or is it?

Recommended Posts

ok, i bought what I thought was a Easton Synergy SL at nationals for 100 bucks or so about 1 or 2 months ago (i forget when) and today for some strange reason realized it doesn't say "SL" where the retail ones say "SL" it's silver/blue like the regular SL's but doesn't have a name on it and says the usual "pro stock no warranty.. blah blah.. now my question to you's is, is it really a SL?

Interesting you bring that up- some of the pro stock SL's I've seen/bought have been really nutty too. Some had the "Therma-Tec" logo near the blade, some didn't... My brother said the one he picked up from my LHS felt exactly like his old Easton Stealth (05, I think? The first run).... and I know some sites boast "Pro Stock Si-Core SL's"...

we were both figuring they weren't...as maybe some of the NHL'ers liked the older run Eastons, and they wanted to get the "SL look" out there to appeal to us kids.....but I'm curious to see what some of the guys here have to say.

the ones I picked up felt great, loved the pattern.... but I don't think a 600lb gorilla could have flexed it... I read online the Coburn pro stock was a 120, and I cut about 2.5 inches off of it. It was hell... so I parted with them.

I have some Kvashas and they're all grip and I think two of them didn't have the SL logo on them but they feel just the same as the others. Who knows, I may be wrong and these could be Royales or Vaper XVs or some crap.

neither of my iginla st's say "ST" on them. another thing i noticed about them is when i took the end cap off to cut them it inside stickers on both said SL100 and some other letters/numbers.

yeah, one of mine actually had a little black button toward the butt-end... I pressed it... turned out to be an umbrella painted like an SL...
