I have the TPS Rubber shafts and need an upgrade badly.The R2 is great, best shaft I've used yet. Quite a bit of pop for a whip flex. It's a bit heavier than the ultra high end shafts but balances well with a wood blade. Good deal for $40.The Bauer I cut from a OPS. Really durable, great for slappers, not bad for wristers. Also a good deal as I paid $60 for the stick and used it probably 20-30 times before cutting the blade off (which was still in great shape, just got bored with the pattern).

Where did you find the R2 for $40. I seen the Endure for $59 on Hockey Giant or Hockey Monkey i forget which one but, its one of those.

Jarick 5 Report post Posted October 11, 2007 I found it at a LHS clearance. Hockey Giant had them for $40 a couple days ago. I pick up most of my sticks/blades/shafts from the bargain bin. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lotus 2 Report post Posted October 11, 2007 (edited) been a while since I posted here, figured this isn't a bad place to introduce myself again.Shoulders/Elbows/Shins/Girdle Synergy 300 (upgrading soon enough >.<)Helmet- rbk 6kStick - Synergy ST ala Sakic (retail) + Ethernet wireBackup - CCM Vector v6 (It's also my roller hockey backup so ABS blade boo :P)Roller - cut one piece synergy grip w/ abs blade.Gloves - Warrior DolomiteSkates - Vapor XXII'sinline skates = RBK 5k with Rink Rat World Cup wheels.Camera phone sorry, also left it on night mode so it distorted some colors.I'm looking at TPS / Warrior sticks since I think I want something whippier. The Synergy ST has been through hell and shows no signs of breaking after 30 or so games. Figure it would be a reliable backup if I do want something a little more like a whip.
