Fibreglass blades

[Sav25 1]

Hey all,

I have an old Titan ISD200 wood stick that I have owned and loved for the best part of 7/8 years. I've posted up before trying to find out what happened to Titan...only to find out they were finished after being swallowed up by another company.

Anyway, being a wood stick player, I have bought and destroyed many over the last year since picking up the sport again. But the Titan hasnt weakened at all...the blade just stays perfect no matter how many shots or hits it gets

I think it's something to do with the blade design...it looks like it's completely made from fibreglass with a piece of wood in the middle...whereas my new sticks are just wood with fibreglass coating.

Does anyone make sticks with fibreglass blades anymore? Or am I completely wrong here?

Some pics to bring it to life, and show off my vintage stick :P

Lined up with my other 3, just coated them with some fibreglass resin to keep them fresh:

Cheers,

Definantely the closest you can come to your stick is the Frontier remake of the Titan 4020 (most sold hockey stick of all time)

Can be bought online here: http://rexhockey.com/wood_sticks/senior/fr...ont_491_en.html

It looks similar, but also looks a bit 'cheap' - anyonme used these?

I've used one, and it's exactly like playing with a Titan 4020 (used one of those back in the day), just different graphics.

I am SOO happy that, in a way...a very tiny way, Titan sticks are back!!

CCM/Reebok made a batch of Jofa branded 4020's about two years ago. You can still find those if you search.

I've tried one of these and don't recomend them. They are a lot weaker than the original Titan 4020. The hosel is not fiberglass reinforced and they break pretty easily.

Sounds like the Fontier is the way to go then

Anyone know about Frotier curves?

[Patrick67 1]

There's is only one curve offering on the Frontier, and it's the big mid-toe curve #23 (similar to Coffey, maybe a tiny bit bigger).

The curve could also be found on the old Titans (#23 aswell).
