Blade Durability

[Xero117 7]

I've narrowed my choices down to two sticks to replace my xxx lite, the One95 and the TPS R8. I'm wondering which has a more durable blade in terms of blade life and retaining stiffness.

I have much better luck with R8s. I have had 2 one95s and both blades went soft within 2 months. Every R8 I have had the shaft broke before the blade went soft. Every single one of them I have had has lasted me well over 2 months with being on the Ice for 2+ hours a day 2 of them lasted 4 months for me and I am very very hard on my sticks.

the one95 has lasted me an entire season and it's still stiff. great durability.
