Comp

You sure about that?

[Too Old 1]

Should find out for sure by Wednesday when they'll be in my hands. I was told composite though and the RBK info on their site shows the blades as composite in the retail 10K sticks. Or are they wood with a composite overlay in the Pro Stock version?

I had a 10k that looks exactly like yours, my blade was wood and fiber-glass :S

Really rare to find a pro stock 10k that's actually or like the retail version.

Thanks for the info! Actually I'd think the 'feel' may be better with wood vs composite, even with enhanced foam core techniques they claim are in the retail 10K at least? And if the blade breaks then a replacement wood one will feel very similar then too I'd believe.

I haven't seen many most, I've seen have been v130s... that is not a v130 blade, those are pretty obvious as well.

That certainly looks like a wood blade and possibly a v130 shaft.

New toys.

Aaron Palushaj AK

Looks like a nice little mid-toe, neutral face. I like it. Is it a OPS?

If you hate it and the flex is right, dibs. :)

That Palushaj curve looks exactly like the couple a pro stock Easton Karyia blades I have. PM me TBLfan if you're interested?

I'm pretty sure the Kariya was more of a small mid. If you look at this one it looks like a tiny heel with a little more curve at the mid-toe, kind of like an EXTREMELY toned down Kovalchuk pro.

[malcb33 97]

I know what you mean, but the couple I have are definitly a toe, not like the mids I've seen before . It looks very similar to the Palushaj, Longer blade, closed but opens up very slighty towards the toe, with a smallish toe curve. From what I remember the other pro Karyia was more like a Recchi retail curve.

[TBLfan 25]

If you could send me a pic with details(curve, profile pic, estimate on lie, standard/tapered) on the blade, I'd appreciate it.

[SpartanHOCKEY12 0]

nice Michigan stuff the last few days i noticed and i love those grafs without the silver!

[TBLfan 25]

An 87, a 107 and two 112? Not too picky eh?

[warrior37 0]

anything 105 or better works for me, the 87 is a lefty for a buddy, figured id be a show it off whore though lol

[TBLfan 25]

Ah, gotcha... I hear ya there, I tend to go a little whipper with the lower kickpoint sticks out of feel. I normally cruise between 85-95, preferably 95.

On the one95s are they a mild stickum grip, not tactile?

Edited April 20, 2009 by TBLfan

exactly a mild stick um grip no tactile, im normally not a fan, but its not bad at all and its nothing 300 grit sand paper cant take care of. not bad for $90 out the door. whats the pattern-flex on that gens gem?

[TBLfan 25]

I didn't mind, albeit I don't like the grip and it seems to be holding up better than previous grip sticks from Bauer, which kind of sucks. I'm not exactly happy that I was told it was non-grip but I'll live.

Mine is a P92, not the pattern of choice but it will do. Good stick for $105. Only 3 hours of icetime with it but it's probably my second favorite OPS, behind the U+.

[K9 Unit 1]

dammit where u get that TBL? get me one lol

[warrior37 0]

is the C29 the grip code? i noticed my mcgrattan has a C in the code and its the same grip as the 95s

[TBLfan 25]

I believe the "C" is the amount of grip. With A, B, C and D being options. The "29" is what I'm unsure of.

I got the stick from TSR, I think I got the last one but the guy I talked to said they had other P92s available.

damn thats US based right? i'm more of a p88 guy...wish the blade was shorter though

Edited April 20, 2009 by K9 Unit

[TBLfan 25]

Yeah, it is. They had P88s too. I skipped out on that because I did like it but they've changed it slightly a LOT over the past 4 years. This P92 doesn't exactly look the same as before either.

[K9 Unit 1]

ye i noticed that about p92s....i thought they were really open mid-toe...so i usually skipped it...but now its really sakic-like

[TBLfan 25]

I was expecting the toned-down Sakic but this is what I got:
