Older Nike Bauer Stick, need deciphering of custom specs

[caldy315 0]

I have a Nike Bauer One95 that is on it's last leg. I got the stick off craigslist and was one of the guys from Colorado College as it has a logo and a name down the shaft. The blade style fits me perfectly, but I need help deciphering the numbers to get one just like it once it does go.

Numbers read.

P12 - ??

102 - Must be the flex

C29 - ??

Anyone know what these mean? I was reading that the P12 is the Giroux, wondering if that still holds true. The C29 not sure what that means.

P12 I guess its the Giroux curve, c29 is usually a one95 code.

It is a P12 curve 102 flex one95 stick.

Super old bump, but indeed this stick has finally broke. The issue is, I can't find a P12 curve stick to save my life, except if I custom order one. I'd rather not do that, and I'd like to stay Bauer. The P14 (Toews) curve looks similar, anyone care to comment?

P14 is more of a toe than the P12

If memory serves, P12 was their answer to Iginla/E7, which is also becoming scarce. I think Winn Well has it at retail P112. CCM would call it H17 in pro sticks.

It is the Iginla, just ordered a P12 from my Bauer and matches pretty close to my Easton Iggy. Easton still makes them I do believe, I think I've seen them on Total or Monkey's websites. The My Bauer P12 is a lie 7 and the Easton E7 is a 5.5, so keep that in mind.

The P88 which is what I just switched from is what I've found to be most similar IMO

I have a P88 (Lindros) at the time and it feels and looks more curvy. The one thing I liked about the P12 was the absence of a drastic curve, which made either side handling decent. I'm playing with my P88 Vapor XXXX stick right now and although it's alright, I like the less aggressive blade I had with my Supreme One95 P12 stick. Easier to control the puck on my backhand (RH) and surprisingly more controllable wristers. Both are/were 102 flex and I think I'm going to go down to a 87. Checking out a P14 tonight, hopefully that will work out. I don't want to order a P12 through myBauer for $270. I'll try a P14, local craigslist person has one for $100 brand new, so it's worth a shot.

Easton has dropped the Iginla. The last sticks that you will find it on are the V9/V9E.

As for lie comparisons, the Bauer site has had it wrong since the dawn of the P12. It is actually a 6 lie by Bauer standards. Way back when they crossed up the lies between the P12 and the P71.

When you say crossed up the 12 and 71, is the 71 a true lie 7? I've noticed they are a bit off on their lie scale in comparison to others, my P88 is more like a 5 but labeled a 6 which was why I went to P12. Do you know if their lie scale is different on pro stock than it is retail? As I've been looking at pro stocks in a lie 7.

I found the P14 to have a lot of toe curve, almost like a P92 but a lot less rocker.

[chippa13 1844]

I mean when they put their old pattern chart together they listed the P12 as a 7 and the P71 as a 6 when it should have been the other way around.

P88, E36 or a clone of them are probably going to be closest you'll find to P12. The lie will be a bit lower with a slightly longer blade.

Picked up a P14 and I could have sworn when I was at the Bauer store it looked close to the P12 blade as they have all the blade curves there. Indeed it does have quite a bit of toe curve. I don't know if it's because my P88 is a Vapor (XXXX) and the one I broke was a Supreme (one95), but it feels completely different. Going to try this Supreme Total One NXG with a P14 curve tonight. See how I like it and do some back to back comparisons with my Vapor XXXX. I left this one slightly longer and feel I may like that a little better.
