Curve Help

Recommended Posts

With only one local shop in the area that carries very few patterns it is hard to compare curves. I was wondering if anybody could post a comparison pic of a p106 and p91a. Thanks in advance.

I am fairly certain that I have one at home since I bought XXV's in the same pattern at the same time last year to compare them... I assume you mean the P91A right????

Just as a quick reference though... for me, the P106 felt like the better overall pattern. Wrist shots were better, passing (both sending and receiving) was easier and stickhandling was easier. The only thing the P91A had going for it was the slap shots and the ability backhand a little easier.

Yes, P91A. I've been thinking about making the switch. If you are able to post some pictures or can e-mail them to me I would greatly appreciate it.

go onto the bauer id site and you can see a visual comparison of all bauer curves. Its very useful

I've seen the Bauer ID site. Doesn't help with comparing the two. Thanks for the attempted help though.

P91A is simply a Drury clone: Straight blade, mid-heel curve with a pure wedge to it. Rounded toe. Longer than the P106.

P106 has slightly more curve (also from the heel), but is not a wedge. More of a gradual loft and not quite as much of it. Not as tall of a blade and also a rounded toe.

Interesting; I using a Drury currently, but I'm not sure if I like it...I like the flattish rocker, and the mid-heel pattern, but I think it's just too open for me - looks like the P106 is a nice option in the middle of a Drury/Malkin are far as mid-heels go.

Does the P106 have a significant rocker?
