adam14 182 Report post Posted November 17, 2011 very first wood stick was a Torspo, all black with turqoise lettering. First official JR shaft I used was an Easton aluminum shanahan that you could buy at Wal Mart. First one piece was either a Franklin air core or a bauer tri flex.

black hills tj 5 Report post Posted November 17, 2011 First "street hockey stick" was a Mylec with a screw on blade. First real stick was a CCM Vector 02 that my fiance's parents gave me for Christmas. First shaft was an 85 flex Easton Z-bubble. Still haven't used a one piece composite though.

Still haven't used a one piece composite though.im just quessing here but you might be how i was with one piece sticks, i used 2 piece aluminum and then later fiberglass and graphite and was always happy enough with that and never wanted to use a one piece, i figured it wasnt that big a deal. finaly 4 years ago i bought one and after using it a few times i felt like an idiot thinking they were no better then a aluminum easton. when you find the right flex, lie and blade for you you will be amazed at how much better one piece sticks are Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Once I figure out the length/curve/flex I like..I want to spend about 100-140 on something nice. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

IPv6Freely 2096 Report post Posted November 21, 2011 I don't remember what I used as a kid in the 80s, but my first stick bought with my own money was a blue Titan doug gilmour model. I loved how thin it felt compared to the other woodies at the time (which was probably all in my head). Used it for street hockey :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Vulcan7905 88 Report post Posted November 22, 2011 I remember my brother giving me his aluminum stick when he played with his high school team. Then when I began playing again, he gave me his Easton stick he used to practice with, with the Thrashers. I fell in love with how light it is and the lie.

SB39 2 Report post Posted December 2, 2011 Mine was a Mylec with the screw-on blade also, then woodys with fiberglass blades, then an Easton aluminum Rush Street as my first shaft. That Mylec had a Bobby Hull banana curve gave me a mean shot; I dominated my YMCA 4-6th grade league... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yinzer57 0 Report post Posted December 4, 2011 For street hockey I started with either a Titan USA model, or Cristian one(made after Miracle on Ice). When I got into Dek hockey had to use Mylec equipment there, so I used their 1 piece one with the blue and silver mirrored tape- kinda miss shooting 80 mph low curve balls! Then when I started to play ice, I used that awful looking Red Titan, stick because it could easily be torched and bent under my door- stuck with those until the aluminums started to come out then I had an Easton convex one with a bunch of different blade combinations. Went back to wood with the Christian Black Magic stick that had the thickest and probably heaviest sock wrap and clear coat on the blade, but the curve was a banana hook, so I liked it.
