If you were to order custom sticks

[K9 Unit 1]

I thought i'd do this for fun...i'm always interested on peoples curves, i couldn't be bothered to search if someones done this before so feel free to close it

Hopefully this can also answer many of the sticks questions too. So i thought just put what your sticks specs would be and just be a simple why you choose it...and hopefully this will be a fun thread.

Depth - 1/2" - 12mm (Slight)

Curve - Mid

Face - In between closed+ slightly open, Some sites call it neutral

Toe - Rounded Square

Blade Length - Short

Lie - 5.5

Flex - 85

Hand - Right

No grip, definitely a stiff blade though

I guess its pretty much the Iginla curve, i'm mainly a wrister snapper guy and i'm your classic speedster winger, i've considered using a mid-toe curve but it seems to hook my wristers off target more so i stuck to the mid. I like using pretty straight curves because if i try to shoot low, i hate it if the pucks goes flying higher than it needs to. Short blade length coz i feel like it gives me more control and i get my shots off real fast. Neutral face coz it makes it a little easier to flip the puck up under pressure. Rounded Square coz it helps dig out pucks and its still ok control over wrist shots.

half the people here are going to list retail curve specs, and the most of the others will not know their specs. imo

but here it is

5/8'' heel, open wedge, round toe, long blade, lie 5, flex 90, right hand.

basically a bigger drury, more wedge and a lower lie.

[thejackal 46]

1/2 mid curve slightly open, 5.3 lie shaved toe, med length blade, 75 flex, skinny double-concave shaft, light grip + tactile at the lower hand

[TBLfan 25]

Meh, why not.

I want basically a very small heel(like crosby pro) with a toe curve, similar to the Afanasenkov/Kovalchuk. Neutral blade face.

Lie of about 6.5, big rocker that gets bigger at the toe.

About 11" long blade.

85-95 flex, stick dependent. Higher kickpoint => higher flex. Flex to be accurate with the stick length being about 56-57" long.

Add z-tac on the blade. XN10 shaft with a the pro stock(with the thicker weave) CCM blade.

[thejackal 46]

What I use now (roenick pro and darby pro) are inbetween 5 and 5.5

[K9 Unit 1]

interesting...i also never figured out wtf is the difference between open and open wedge

also didn't expect a lot of people using neutral faces ^^

I like a high lie, with the big rocker I can extend further and bring the puck in closer, especially with the shorter stick.

Nice I would like to try that blade. Except a 5 lie and probably less rocker than you want.

TPS XN10 Whip flex with a Sakic curve in a 5 lie.

[habookus 1]

Bauer Lindros curve, with a touch more curve. Bottom of the blade slightly flattened. Nice round toe. Thinner blade profile. Z-tac coating on the blade. 85 flex. Light grip. Perfect. (Pretty similar actually to the Malkin Pro.)

Thats pretty much the curve I am making up now for my new custom blades, but with a lower lie.
