Ballistik Hockey

My team just got a endorsement deal with Ballistik and we get a discount on their stuff. I was just wondering if anyone had any input on there gear before I take a shot in the dark and buy something.

blades have an ok feel, but no durability. The gloves are comfy, but offer zero protection. Pans are pretty good. Shafts are so-so. The 52 OPS are pretty good. I'd say on the level of Synergy ST.

Thanks man, they have the Caliber 52 SE listed at 415g so I'm thinking there will be durability issues with that

the one piece actually holds up pretty well, but the blades are pretty much butter. A lot of them break right where the hosel meets the blade. They're pretty much all foam so they tend to go dead quick as well.

I've had a Ballistik since 2005 and it's still shooting great :)

I ordered and received the 52 Calibre tapered shaft a week or two ago. This is my second go round with a 52 Calibre. Love the shaft shape (semi-rounded corners) and one of the lightest shafts I've ever used. I like the fact that it comes in an 80 flex, which after cutting, plays at about an 85 flex for me. I tried and turned around and sold in the past month or two multiple Vapor XXXX's, pro stock Dolos, and a TPS R2XN10 shaft. For me, the 52 Calibre wins.

I had a 52 Calibre tapered shaft for a year before it broke.

Lightest and best shooting tapered shaft I've ever had.

For comparison I've used a pro-stock dolo, Easton synthesis and Bauer XV in the tapered department.

Has Ballistik been bought out? I just recently started reusing my 45 caliber OPS and still love it, but when I went to the website, it takes me to combat sports, and has baseball/softball and hockey.

But the hockey section is "coming soon"

Anyone know anything about it, wouldn't mind laying my hands on another stick

They've been owned by Combat. Probably redoing the site.

I had put the stick down for a while, and was using a CCM Vibe. Just went back to the ballistik, 45 caliber. For a mid level stick, the difference in weight is absolutely huge.

I like to think I've got a better feel for what I like now, so think I might have to update the review, if there is still any point in doing that

You can never have too much information

Sorry to hijack this thread, but I really dont want to start a new one. I just tried on a pair of Ballistik 45cal gloves at my local PIAS and I was wondering if any of you have had any experience with them?

[TBLfan 25]

I know a few people with them and they like them, but they also haven't ever had any really nice gloves... In my opinion, they feel like crap.

They're worth the $30 my local PIAS just put them on sale for.

[AIREAYE 248]

whao, they're $100 at mine...going back to the X65 then LOL
