OPS Stick Graphics

My favourites:

1. Easton SE16 - I can't explain why I think this graphics package is so much better than the others but I think the grip version of this stick is one of the best looking sticks out there.

2. Bauer One95 - I have a Bezzo (OHL player) pro-stock version of this stick without any tactile on it, and it gives my SE16 a run in the graphics department. So simple and basic that it is completely awesome.

3. Yellow Synergy Grip - I liked the yellow synergy look so much that since I never got to use one, I bought a yellow synthesis grip shaft recently since it was on clearance for $60 CDN.

I do agree with most of the people saying that Warrior graphics are too much sometimes. I've used Dolomites before and currently have a Kronik I've used a couple times, but the new Dolomites with the dragon on them look ridiculous, and the new Kronik looks like someone barfed lazanga on the stick.

IDK about that. Nothing a little spraypaint can't fix. I can't stand the ed hardy shirts though

Definitely prefer Bauer. Always have been pretty simple. The new line of Vapor/Supreme sticks are examples. I've had Warriors, but hated the graphics for the most part, with the AK27 being the only exception.

I haven't seriously looked at Warrior stuff because I don't like their flashy looks, but the longer it stays around the more I'll consider it - especially if I needed a new stick & could find a Warrior at a decent price.

I liked the original orange Easton Ultralites & I think last year's Easton Synergy ST looks pretty good (I like blue & silver & just got this shaft for Christmas). I also like the looks on the retail NB One95 shaft that I have, although without the tactile grip on the corners of the shaft it would be too slippery for me, I think.

I guess for me it comes down to price & function, more than looks...but looks still factor in at the bottom of the list.
