You got it.

Its all Personal Preference though. How much are you looking to spend?

Then don't go for either of these. The new ST blade wears our pretty quickly apparently. The 9K0 is noted for it's wacky breaking and general instability. I highly recommend a one90, compro or tps r6 for durability and performance.

how do you no this

thanks for helping me out though

(i am 15 and my weight is 105 i am only 5"5 i short :lol:

do you still think i will break it)

[kovalchuk71 212]

I would go with a 65 flex. As long as you dont mash the stick into the ice, you shouldnt break them or in the close future.

thanks for the info ;)

i have only had eastons so that's why i'm asking

As far as the ST, last years felt like it had much better balance than this years model. Also, only the '08 will have the tactile grip like a one90. But like AL said, look into one90's (on sale now) and TPS, they have been very durable from my experience.

so the new st is not as good as the old one?

[starsfan71 9]

If you can find a vapor XXX in a 67 flex it will last you a while you are the same build as me im 5'4 106 and ive ad mine for 7 months and mine has no cracks, even after smashed it against the ice and boards after whiffing on an almost empty net shot in overtime ( I think all my teammates thought I broke it from the force I put behind it ;) )

All sticks break and any input you get from posters about their personal experiences are just coincidental and do not indicate, or are proof of any one stick being better than another. Every player plays different under different conditions and there are too many variables in "personal" experiences. What you need to look at for durability is the construction of the sticks, some are made better/stronger, like the Easton 06/07 stealths which have a extra layer of kevlar on the corners. The ST is also made stronger than others. Generally, the stronger the stick means the heavier it is, and perhaps less performance. Not always the case though. You may be perfectly happy with it.
