And everyone ran towards the NXGs at SJ leaving the ONE.9s behind...LOL

to be fair, likely everyone at SJ has tried a one95, but not an NXG. seems reasonable enough.

I know. It was an attempt at humor, considering how much of a following that stick has.

The blade is slightly different but is the same shaft/same wrap.

Probably a dumb question but how much does puck feel have to do with the material used to create the blade (that is the carbon used) and the core of the blade itself (power core 2 vs power core 3)?

I also wonder if the expanded throat (pure shot blade I think they call it?) as seen starting with the Totalone and not seen on the one95 would factor into puck feel as well? Maybe with more torque or give when receiving passes it helped create the feeling of "softness" that all the one95 users loved. Please don't be a one100 marketing gimmick =(

[JR Boucicaut 3799]

I believe the word Evan used was "essentially." He didn't call it an exact remake of the ONE95.

Gimme dat stick! If it feels anything like one95 I will be ecstatic!

[tvaughan4 16]

Why can't Bauer make a retail Iginla clone!!!! I would be all over this stick if that was the case... so frustrating... loved the one95... (or put this stick in the customizer so I can order the p12, but I'm sure that's wishful thinking )

Pro Hockey Life just anounced on Facebook that a Reebok 20K stick with Sickick technology will be aviable on September 15th.

Any word on the new Mako stick? Are they sticking with white? Are they looking to expand the line into gloves, skates, shoulder pads, etc?

[ibeck 38]

Yes

The stick literally came out 4 months ago. I think a new Mako wont be for a while...

[shoeshine boy 242]

I think the rumor was that the eventual Mako skate would be based off the MLX skate that Easton acquired earlier this year.

[Krev 86]

Still waiting to hear if it will actually incorporate any of the MLX tech or if it is going to be simply 'inspired' by. That answer will ultimately determine where my money goes.

Think you're going to be supremely disappointed.

Well, the RS was spruced up after a year...

Yes, the Mako is going to be a full line.

false...I saw the mako skate, easton guy said it had no mlx connections. That could change however since it wont be released until 2013.

Naw, didn't have much of a hope anyway.

Easton seems to always change things last minute, leaving some confusion.

[JetsCanucks 6]

New 20k Stick looks pretty good, the blade is really stiff and gets stiffer from heel to toe.

Yup, Thats what R&D is for

Central League equipment manager was messing with my mlx's last week. Trying to match the stance of my eq5 without changing the holder.

We could shim them but it was more just messing with them.

He said Easton had told him 6 months for the mlx based skate. No word on the movable holder concept but boot should be similar.

Not going to change the skate last minute. Release date, maybe...

The skate that comes out in 6 months is already being worn now. From what I've heard...if you're expecting a MLX skate, you'll be disappointed.

[AIREAYE 248]

For the RS skate, I've heard around 3 different release dates/timeframes. Easton themselves came on here and confirmed that an entire Stealth line will be Spring 2013 (unsure if new Stealth top end skate will be included, or will continue to have RS) while a new (presumably top-end) "skate inspired by the acquisition of the MLX brand..." will also be a Spring 2013.

We'll see if they decide to stick to this timeline.

[JR Boucicaut 3799]

The Stealth line was supposed to be out this year. They decided to release RS by itself after everything else was scrapped. There were other skates in that line, so the assumption is that the rest of the skates will come out in 2013.

The Mako is the new skate. And that is the one I'm talking about.

[AIREAYE 248]

That would make the most sense; didn't want to assume things lol
