Dan_The_Man_16 0 Report post Posted January 12, 2005 Whats the deal with the Z-Bubble Complete or whatever its called? A fused Z-Bub and Z-Carbon? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tokes 0 Report post Posted January 12, 2005 Whats the deal with the Z-Bubble Complete or whatever its called? A fused Z-Bub and Z-Carbon? I'm guessing it's just the shaft and the blade, not fused. Kinda like how they used to sell T-Flex shafts with blades in them already.JR, any info on the pricing for the new Synergies? Is the ST going to slip into the same price point as the regular synergy, and the SL into the place of the SiCore, or is there going to be a price increase?What's the deal with "The One", is this to replace the Havoc? I'm guessing the Havoc didn't sell very well, because I never saw a single person using one, and the guys at my LHS said they sold like 2 since they had them.

Eazy_b97 1 Report post Posted January 12, 2005 Is the Ultra-Lite Grip just a Grip-Lite? I like the new colour to be honest. I wonder if the Wood Synthesis blade is the reason the Si-Core is no longer available. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JR Boucicaut 3801 Report post Posted January 12, 2005 I did not list prices for a reason. Probably why we won't go with Easton.Dan - the Z-Bubble Complete is just a shaft/blade combo.Eazy - yes, it's just a spiffed-up GL (with the newer grip) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There's a reason why pros use them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
malcb33 97 Report post Posted January 13, 2005 Hi, Is the bubble gum syngery 500 glove, pink?? It looks kinda orange from the pics! The new easton glove range looks kinda wacky to me. I prefer the new mission gloves. The L7 looks like it could be a real nice glove!!! ;) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JR Boucicaut 3801 Report post Posted January 13, 2005 It is what it says, Bubble Gum. It's a pale pink...not as bright as Eagle's. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sniper407 0 Report post Posted January 13, 2005 just FYI if they are using true carbon nanotubes on the SL then it will be the strongest most durable stick on the market due to the fact that Carbon Nanotubes are the strongest molecular structure known to man right now... Just to put it in perspective - Kevlar can only hold up to 15,000 lbs while carbon nanotubes (the same variables used for each test) can hold up to 40 tons.just learned this in AP chemistry today ;) thought id share Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dangles 0 Report post Posted January 13, 2005 50-75 is a huge jump in flex, going to 65 in the intermediate makes more sense. I did just fine this early fall and found it quite easily. Although TPS' 75 does seem quit whippy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dangles 0 Report post Posted January 13, 2005 (edited) Why not a synthesis stealth blade, synthesis SL, or synthesis ST blade? They coulda been a big hit. Might happen in 06 when the sticks are more publicized and a higher percent of the population has them and would be a successful product on the market.EDIT: What the hell? How do i see the curves in a lefty version? Edited January 13, 2005 by dangle3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
asdfa 0 Report post Posted January 13, 2005 i think easton killed their sales for the Synergy ST grip. not only are do the graphics look incredibly cheap, the green is well.. bold. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Keith 0 Report post Posted January 13, 2005 i think easton killed their sales for the Synergy ST grip. not only are do the graphics look incredibly cheap, the green is well.. bold. If it is priced well, the grip stays on the shaft, and the stick performs, I don't see why it should matter. Lately, I have been using an old Vic X-Weave which has to be one of the uglier shafts ever but I use it anyway b/c it can really bring it when I shoot.

tokes 0 Report post Posted January 13, 2005 I wanna know more about the said Carbon Nanotubes used in the Synergy SL. I found the price for them to be in the range of 80-100 dollars per gram, so how much of it can there really be in a stick that costs less than 200 dollars?

Aussie Joe 0 Report post Posted January 13, 2005 It is actually pretty nice and not as restrictive as wrist wraps in the past. The ONLY problem I foresee is that it is NOT removable, and some people just won't want to buy a glove that has a wrist wrap. We'll see how that goes. Can't you just cut the bloody thing off? Or will that effectively kill the glove's integrity strength wise?Also I know I might get stoned for asking this but is Easton planning on making a line of Roller Hockey skates anytime soon? I miss the Z Airs back in the day... they were very nice at the time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JR Boucicaut 3801 Report post Posted January 13, 2005 It is not removable. The back cuff and the wrist wrap is integrated. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tokes 0 Report post Posted January 13, 2005 If they are as strong as someone here said, how much do you really need? Well, they are incredibly strong, but in the catalogue it claims they're mixed in with the resin between all the weaves of carbon fibre in the blade. One gram of this stuff isn't going to make very much/any difference in the strength of the blade, you'd have to add more than that to really get anything out of it, so adding one gram of it would be a waste.
