Looking for Vapor XXX OPS

[jww83 0]

I've looked everywhere i can think of and just cant find one. I'm assuming that this is a lost cause but anyway. Does anybody know somewhere that still has any of the older Vapor XXX OPS available? In particular a 87 flex with any mid curve and a lie that resembles a ccm recchi.

One place i thought of might be the for sale section here on MSH but i'm not a member+ yet. Also wanting it to be brand new.

I understand this is probably an impossible task but i'm desperate to give one a go. Any help whatsoever would be greatly appreciated. Thanks guys.

Haha i knew i wouldve missed some details. Right handed. Senior.

The main reason i'm after apart from it being very similar to a mac daddy is from all the posts on here about it its very cheap for the stick that it is if you can actually find one.

Check Peranis. Some stores still may have the unbranded ones. I think they called them the "True Blue".

Hockey1 has them in a pattern 88 and 87 flex for $140. the p88 is close to recchi.

Possibly. What are they like in terms of durability. I don't want one i'm going to break to easily that's another reason i was after the XXX and not the XXX-lite, aswell as the price, but if they are still going for around 140 probably might aswell get some newer stock and get a mac daddy for only a little more... Was looking for closeout prices.

I'm might have seen some at my LHS (Pure Hockey in Berlin, MA) when I went there on Sunday. I didn't give them too hard of a look so they could be those custom colored XX's.

I need it to be from an online store because i have to have it sent to a firned in the US and then redirected to me in australia. I can't expect them to go searching hockey shops for me haha. Thanks for all your help anyway.

Maybe try the Perani's/Hockeyworld.com and look at the g300 or g500s. I think those are rebadged XXXs

vapor XXX Lites $135 no warranty

[daca 0]

out of all OPS, seems like it'd be the one i'd want a warranty for.

Regular XXX sticks still at National sports-not cheap.....sometimes $199, still regular sticker price at $249

Seems the best mixture of durability/performance for me-had terrible luck with easton in last year. If anyone sees a JR XXX in a GTA store rack please post or pm me....seeing my stick last has my 10 year old wanting a XXX.

I was there today(HockeyHeaven that is.), and saw the dark blue ones you were looking for but forgot to check the hooks on them so don't know if they are RH or LH.

Considering how often you post their link one might think you were working for them.
