Interesting information about Cammalleri sticks

[hkfury 2]

Hi,

http://blogs.thescore.com/nhl/2013/02/14/backhand-shelf-podcast-cooke-on-karlsson-neil-on-cooke/

At the 23 minutes mark of the podcast, Justin Bourne give some insight about Mike Cammalleri's stick. Basically, according to him, Easton gave him a slightly different batch of sticks that Cammalleri liked so much that he is now asking for his sticks to have these small difference.

It would be nice if somebody with a recent Cammalleri pro stock stick could confirm this.

Thanks

Alex

Is this the dual-lie they've put on the E28/Kreps curve?

What is the "defect"?

Pretty sure that's what it is.

Have no idea why that guy is considered credible.

Agreed, he's an idiot. Every time someone posts something from him, it's wrong, misleading or a flat out lie.

Does Cammy use something similar to the Kreps? Or is his just a standard Kreps curve?

the score has the worst sports cast. its just filled with 18 year olds who win those stupid reality tv show competitions, and dont even get me started on reality tv show competitions.

When I had my cammalleri twigs, he was using a mid curve with a bigger toe, not e28-ish though

[JR Boucicaut 3805]

Right - you can easily tweak someone's pattern and change the rocker. He doesn't have to be using the E28 to get that.

[ibeck 38]

This is what a pro rep told me marcelo, however I'm aware of your experience.

[x-axis 44]

I don't personally have one, but someone with a twitter should tweet cammy and ask what his pattern looks like now.

And why is that exactly? What makes him an idiot I'm curious

[Chadd 916]

And why is that exactly? What makes him an idiot I'm curious

The fact that he constantly gets information dead wrong and passes it off as fact. I don't understand how anyone could cite him as an authority, given what I have seen of his work.

[VIPERS96 1]

This source is actually correct in this case and I know that for a fact...

[JR Boucicaut 3805]

Did it have to be called a "defect" though?

That's what I'm taking issue with.

[Chadd 916]

Exactly. It's not a broken or bad stick, simply not per the initial spec. Something that happens fairly frequently. You would think someone who claims to be such an expert on pro hockey would know how common something like that is.

[AIREAYE 248]

Well, he didn't specifically say 'defect', just that Easton 'made him a batch wrong' and that he had being using these 'wrong' stick. Wrong in the sense that it wasn't to spec?

[JR Boucicaut 3805]

Sorry, you're right, the OP said that.

[Chadd 916]

If that's the case, my wording was too strong. It's still not a big deal, as this happens on a pretty regular basis.

The retail version has changed completely between the S19 and the Mako. lie, curve, loft, rocker, toe shape are all different. I really like the new one, one of the best curves I have had the pleasure of getting hold of.

This topic has nothing to do with the retail Cammalleri.

[Vet88 674]

Unfortunately I don't have a pro stock cammalleri curve of any vintage to compare to the various retail versions that were put out in his name. If one is a reflection of the other then it might be relevant.

the name on any retail stick does not indicate what pattern the pro actually uses, its for identification purposes only

[Vet88 674]

Whilst that may be true for the majority of retail curves out there, I have seen some sticks where the pro and retail curves are similar eg Modano. That's not to say Modano only used that style of curve (I'm pretty sure it was around 2008 that I saw the 2 together side by side) but this was one case where they were similar.

As the original poster asks, it would be nice if someone had one.

[hyster110 3]

if the pro uses a curve like a retail on great,

but

for retail purposes, names on the curve are just for identification, hence why the names change all the time.
