Enjoy!

In the RP/Styles no less...you magnificent bastard.

[mojo122 535]

Am I reading this right? Weight 305 grams, accurate to within 130 grams??

[Accord 0]

On the stick it says it weighs 305g but the scale says 433g? Mabye the scale isn't calibrated?

[mack 44]

No, no one lists true weights on OPS.

Trust me when I tell you, the scale is DEAD ON.

[mickz 107]

Synergy SL? Is that a regular one or what?

[mojo122 535]

Absolutely, but I'd say the 433 was good if they listed the OPS at 395 instead of 305.

[nazzy19 0]

typo maybe? It is pretty daring to list a stick at 128 grams heavier. maybe the stick is just a display.

those guys from peru would REALLY be piseed if it wasnt, eh?

It is just plain ridiculous that they mark 305 instead of 433. Agreed, they may use a cut-down stick to measure the printed-on weight. But you'd have to chop off 2 feet of the shaft to make it loose 130 grams.

I am shaking my head in disbelieve that no legal action has ever been taken by competitors. I could hardly think of a more obvious case of customer deception which is (at least in Europe) sanctioned by laws against unfair competition. In German courts I'd get a temporary injunction within 48 hours that immediately prohibits shipments/sales of the "mislabeled" sticks. But wait... OPS are sold in Germany, too. I might want to kick off some action against this practice which really makes me sick (as a customer and as a legal expert).

How does the SL differ from the current Synergy model?

[duckjob 1]

If only the pattern was available in retail, perhaps i could go back to easyon. i nice small heel curve with a closed face. CCM stuart is the closest thing i've found in a retail pattern. Been meaning to try the crosby though.

lucky!!

[mik3 1]

oh no....if the weights are wrong...that must mean a stealth really DOESN'T have an 11 performance rating. I hope nobody finds this out ;x

What is the heel to buttend length of the stick?

Just curious because of the BS line that is used when ever they state weights "* when measured at industry standard length of 57 inches..."

[JR Boucicaut 3789]

I honestly think that it was the graphics for the tapered shaft.

looks like easton is useing a plastic end cap now.

[dix0r 0]

maybe it refers to the weight of the shaft w/o the blade "fused in" or whatever...

[Briggy 0]

So the shaft on the SL is the Stealth shaft? or the Stealth blade?

[JGraz15 53]

I don't see the point on this one? Why would the SL be listed lighter than its big brother Stealth? Also does it have a colored blade?

[JGraz15 53]

I honestly think that it was the graphics for the tapered shaft.

I didn't think of that...good job dectective

[roadrunner 12]

I think the shaft is 305g on its own. I amagine how light that would be 305 the whole stick.

[merle720 0]

Maybe it feels like it weighs 305g.

Marcelo works for TPS still? Still interesting to see stuff like this. I weighed my synthethis shaft and it was within 5 g.

[EBondo 232]

you sun of a gun!!!!! oh well when it hits the stores itll probably go for like 300 bucks cuz the stealth is at 200
