Joonas #6 3 Report post Posted July 26, 2014 Anyone tried or have 18K shins? I'm looking for some feedback. How bulky are they? How's the weight? etc. My local shops don't have them, so I can't try them on. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
joegruber25 5 Report post Posted August 3, 2014 Just one quick question: has anyone heard anything about a new Reebok stick coming anytime soon? I haven't I was just wondering because I want to see if they can improve the Ribcore tech in a different stick so I can buy that one and I don't want to buy a stick without knowingfirst Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cosmic 178 Report post Posted August 13, 2014 Retail is about $25 bucks, Money well spent. How do you care for this item, as the cup is permanently stitched in there? With my present jock, I take the cup out after each use, rinse and let air dry. I also wash the garment itself after each use. What do you do when the cup and the garment are fused? Rinse and air dry? Or run through the washing machine? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gosinger 122 Report post Posted August 14, 2014 Why do the Euros get all the good stuff? (they get the extended elbow pad forearm guard too in the 20K elbows)Then again, we don't get most of anything else.... Try getting your hands on an OPS below the top model with anything but P92/E3/Sakic/whatever....:( Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
flyers10 57 Report post Posted August 15, 2014 The combo is Europe only. Anyone know how the length on the RBZ 130 with the 1" extension is compared to the older Easton S13 long/85s long/75s II long? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cosmic 178 Report post Posted August 18, 2014 I heard that the CCM Tacks blade gets stiffer as you go down the blade. Does the RBZ Superfast blade also get stiffer as you move down it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cavs019 708 Report post Posted August 29, 2014 Does RBK/CCM still offer the AA heel at retail on any of their models? Didn't catch it in the catalog. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
IW Team - Chase 184 Report post Posted September 2, 2014 I heard that the CCM Tacks blade gets stiffer as you go down the blade. Does the RBZ Superfast blade also get stiffer as you move down it?I'm not sure about stiffness but I do know the COR increases as you go from the heel to the toe. On the SuperFast, it also increases much more rapidly than the Stage 2. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cosmic 178 Report post Posted September 6, 2014 (edited) I am interested in the stiffness simply because when I was using the Kovalchuk curve, the toe seemed to maintain stiffness. I theorize because the blade was shorter, so there was less torque or tension that I was subjecting it to. Now that I use Zetterberg, I think I can feel the toe feeling a bit floppy on wrist shots. So, when the toe flops, I send shots way wide right (like Scott Norwood). I never sent shots way side right with the Kovalchuk. My form is admittedly not the greatest, but either way, point is, I need a stiff blade, especially at the toe. Edited September 6, 2014 by Cosmic Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
