Moose 1 Report post Posted April 30, 2012 (edited) They are sized in numbers.Size 4 = SmallSize 5 = Medium Size 6 = LargeBe aware that these are sized generous. Alot of pros in size 4's and 5's.I was about to pull the trigger on a pair of 6's so I'm glad you gave me the heads up. I have really long arms (usually a 38 arm length) so it may still work out. Do they run big in length or bigger around the diameter of the arm? Maybe I'll try someone's on at SJ. Edited April 30, 2012 by Moose Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

IPv6Freely 2092 Report post Posted April 30, 2012 After looking at that stick, I can't see how people are infatuated with white sticksI like both. I have my Tron 405 all-black stick (no graphics what so ever), and I also have (had... waiting for my warranty..) a Mako. I'm all about the solid color sticks, be it black or white. I do think the white stands out more among the mess of black/dark sticks out on the ice... dunno if thats a good or a bad thing. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dsjunior1388 81 Report post Posted May 2, 2012 New stick, Warrior Diablo. Can't tell if its the new curve (Kovalev) or the Dagger taper but its going to be an adjustment. Also got some Easton Air lowers, Thrashers pro stock, appear to have never been used. Mated perfectly with my nike uppers. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
the_game 452 Report post Posted May 2, 2012 Are the tapered P89 blades availble at the retail level?As far as I know Tapered Bauer P89 blades are not available as a retail offering. The P89 is however available for college, custom, & pro orders, etc, you just need to find a dealer to order them for you.I was able to find a dealer to order me the Bauer P89 tapered blades, the minimum was a half dozen so thats what I went with.I'm still looking for a decent shaft to go with the blades though.
