So the "CrazyOvie" stick is retail or no? I have two Petr Sykora pro stock sticks (crazy lights without the rough texture), same curve as Ovechkin and 75 flex, cant find anymore, has to be left handed.

How are you liking the stick and curve?

Stick is amazing, always had EASTON sticks before.

This stick is so light, lightest stick on the market ?

75 flex is perfect im 5.7 and 191.4 lbs

Ovi curve is amazing i like it alot, and i will prob stick with this curve in the future ! Best curve ive ever had.

So easy to shoot with, puck comes off the blade so quick with lots of spin.

I dont have to put any power into the shot and still the shot is really hard and fast. You can really see the puck accelerate in the air.

Good feelin when puckhandling.

If you like "extreme" curves and you can BUY IT !

(Sorry for my bad english)

The last cl was the lightest on the market. I think the new one is heavier but it still may be the lightest.

Also your english is fine. It is better than some people whose first language is english that post here

To bad the blade is going to be beefed up, my favorite part about the pattern is the thin blade. Feels so much better than the thicker blades on retail sticks.

Ovi hasn't used a thin blade since the White Vector 10 sticks he use to use. However Ovi clone sticks can be ordered from CCM in packs of 12 and they use that crappy blade. The puck feel is terrible and they torques back badly. I was severly dissapointd when I got the Ovi clone CCM U+ CL (which was just an old Vector painted like U+ CL) from a friend of mine who ordered 12 customs with his pattern. The CCM rep told him the sticks would be identical to Ovi's sticks, same flex, graphics, blade etc. Instead we get some old repainted original Vectors with his curve. The CCM rep said they use the old vector blades for custom orders because it was easier to make his curve with them, which is a boggus excuse because they have access to Donald Brashers mold, who also used U+ CL with newer style of composite blade with a lefty Ovi pattern. There is no way in hell Ovi uses the crap that Is sitting in my basement. I definitely lost respect for CCM after they whosed my buddy some $2500 for the 12 sticks when they were old tchnology. I guess we all learn our lesson the hard way once in a while.

Not so sure about that. I had an ovie one95 and its blade was about 5 pieces of paper thick

Pics i posted before of my 2011 U+ CL "CrazyOvi", i wonder why he doesnt use this stick with theese graphics.

Ive seen some pics with him and that stick but never in a game. I ve seen other NHL players though playing with this stick.

Does anybody know ? Im just curious if there is a reason.

Yeah maybe a real recent change, but the Ovi One95s and the few CCM sticks I've had have all been really thin.

I also disagree on the feel, but that is more personal preference. I'm convinced torque in the blade isn't always a bad thing for someone who is taking a majority snap/wrist shots.
