Gillsley 0 Report post Posted November 7, 2017 So I was talking to the manager at my LHS about ordering in some team stock sticks for myself and he had these Ribcore Pro PMT brought in. I’m a little weary of these being actual team stock sticks as he said and not just a mid range retail stick as it has a retail stamp on it and not a code. Anyone out there that can confirm that this is now what CCM is doing with their team stock sticks ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cavs019 710 Report post Posted November 7, 2017 Looks like an SMU. Team stock wouldn't have a retail pattern name on it. All the team stock I've seen have been P28, P90, etc. etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JR Boucicaut 3804 Report post Posted November 7, 2017 It’s the 2nd stick in the Ribcor line, under the Trigger2. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The way it was explained to me made it sound like CCM was starting to put retail names on their team stock sticks which seemed a little odd. Regardless I get to try out a new pattern at a pretty decent price. Thanks for the feedback guys. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JR Boucicaut 3804 Report post Posted November 7, 2017 No, there was some confusion - the 2nd stick in the line usually has a similar construction to team stock sticks; they tend to have performing materials but are a touch heavier (and presumably, more durable.) So, the term "team stick" is used to describe them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's an improved 2nd price point stick that performs similarly to a team stick, (reinforced shaft, top-end blade construction with great balance) but with the benefit of a warranty.
