thegongshow13 0 Report post Posted February 28, 2008 Right now i'm using a Naslund on my 30 lite, an Iginla on my Stealth and I tried out a Forsberg blade on my 2 peice.With the naslund I feel like I can't shoot low, I send everything high, but I like the length of the bladeWith the iginla I feel like I can shoot anywhere but the blade is so damn short that I hate the stickhandling with itWith the forsberg I love the stickhandling but the shooting, not so much.so I guess what i'm asking is what is a curve thats going to allow me to do basically everything well.Thanks.

hockeyfreak 0 Report post Posted February 29, 2008 There simply isn't a curve that is the best for everything. If you practice enough with one curve, you should adapt to it. A curve won't make you a good shooter. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
thegongshow13 0 Report post Posted February 29, 2008 I know that, I was asking if anyone uses a curve that is like an iginla but a little longer basically. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
-brady2 0 Report post Posted February 29, 2008 Then why are you bitching about your curve. the change from an iginla to a forsberg shouldn't be enough that you worry about it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Patrick67 1 Report post Posted February 29, 2008 Your looking for the same thing as me....A neutral face sakic. (and in my case a 5 lie)Alas there's isn't any retail curve that fits that bill, and I haven't found it in a prostock curve yet.You could get it made custom from either ballistik or christian in wood/composite.

deadmanjolt 1 Report post Posted February 29, 2008 Try the #5 from christian. Ever so slightly longer than an iginla when I compared.Recchi is like a more neutral face mid/mid toe curve, worth a shot. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

flyerman 0 Report post Posted February 29, 2008 CCM Recchi X 3.I just got one; good all around mid curve: longer blade, curve not too deep, blade face not too open, lie is 5.25. I'd give it a shot.http://www.hockeymonkey.com/ccm-vector---blade-patterns.html Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jarick 5 Report post Posted February 29, 2008 Well somewhere down the line you'll have to compromise.i'd look at the Robitaille curve...it's not as flat as an Iginla, but it's longer. Or look at the Nash, a lot of people think it's got a bit less loft than the Sakic.Personally I'd love a 3/8" mid curve with the profile of a Forsberg, but that won't happen.

topshelf11 0 Report post Posted February 29, 2008 Warrior Robitaille. 1/2" mid curve slighty open, but not as much as the Sakic, 5 lie. Best curve on the market for me. Sundin/Brendl/Afinogenov is similar, just a bit deeper. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vermette20 0 Report post Posted February 29, 2008 Try Harrow sports, go to hockey and custom sticks and blades. There's a form to fill out, and you have to buy 6 blades. Fill out the form for exactly what you want, and there you have it your custom stick blade that has everything you want.Casey Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
