I didn't realise they existed at all. How do you like it?supposedly it is (altho to me it looks like it was a shaft with a 4 inch plug fused on the end fused onto a blade :lol: )PHOTO TO EXPLAIN WHAT I MEAN (lines represent what look like fused points lol: : but im in love.. stick is my boyfriend I also have the AK27 OPS, from Jeff Friesen, the blade broke in 2 games, and he had the blade fused so tight that the re-bar trick didn't even move the blade a cm, so I have to use mine in the butt end. I hope you have better luck. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Anytime I attempt to use a curve that isn't open I just can't lift the puck. I tried using Kovalchuk's toe hook and I still can't lift as much as with the sakic and even stickhandling is awkward. Just don't want to spend enough time trying to adjust. That is a neat idea though Hockey is life. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cove 38 Report post Posted November 7, 2007 Im weird like that. Ive never used the same curve, lately Ive used the Drury curve because I liked how it looked(no bs) and then I bought my next 3 sticks with the same curve. But I can pick up any stick any curve, flex, what ever and just use it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ti-girl 0 Report post Posted November 8, 2007 I love Tacks.I grew up on them and will always have a soft spot for them. My brothers each bought 3 pairs of 1152's when they last went. Mine are now RBK 9K's...but I would go back to Tacks in a second if I could find a pair my size... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LkptTiger 1 Report post Posted November 8, 2007 I'd take some of the "older" skates over a lot of the higher end stuff available today. Hell, I just switched back to Vapor 10s (remember those?) after a few years in Graf G35s and G35 Ultras. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
