chippa13 1844 Report post Posted April 20, 2018 A lot of folks shy away from the BM12 when they see how short a blade it is. If only they made a true copy of the original Bure pattern that Bauer had. That would be a thing of beauty. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Playmakersedge 58 Report post Posted April 21, 2018 What kind of skater are you as far as leg bend or form ? How tall are you? . I will tell you up front I am not current on the curve patterns. My self I like a blade that has a that's more at the toe and gradual back. I played with a lie 5 I believe that would enable me to have room to stick handle and evade without feeling bound up . I also used a stick that was just about at the height of the where the neck goes to the sternum. I did modify my stick blade by twisting it . I don't know if the composite sticks can be heated and tweaked. Maybe some of this will give you ideas or experiment. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PP26 is less open at the toe. Don't know what to tell you. I think we'll have to respectfully disagree. This is my curve of choice, and when I compare the curves of my Ek365 and my T120 to my QRLs and Alphas and all the other sticks from the other companies I have, they look exactly the same. At the very least, for me, they're close enough to not make a difference in performance. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cosmic 178 Report post Posted April 22, 2018 I have used just about every retail curve at least in the shooting zone at HM, and most in actual play, as well as, the Base P71, and the Scheiffele pro stock. It's an absolute no brainer for me- the P30 (CCM exclusive) is the best curve out there (for me), hands down. Every one should at least give it a try (in the shooting range, or on an inexpensive stick). Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Amazinmets73 69 Report post Posted April 23, 2018 I tried the Easton E36 curve and was impressed by it. Passing and backhands aren't quite as good as the PM9, but there's a discernable improvement in puckhandling and shooting. Furthermore, I was using the C3 stick, which is Eastons lowest-end model. In spite of that I'd choose it in a heartbeat over my $270MSRP Nexus with that horrendous P92 curve. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Vet88 674 Report post Posted May 13, 2018 The top one doesn't look like it opens up enough to be a Drury or P91A, I agree the shape is similar but it looks near enough a closed face like a PM9. However the angle of the photo can be deceptive. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stick9 890 Report post Posted May 13, 2018 (edited) I’ve argued the P19 & W03 are NOT P92 clones and the P92 isn’t really a Sakic/Draper clone. In my experience, the P19 & W03 are almost exact. When compared to a P92, they aren’t as deep or as open, possibly even less toe. The P92 when compared to a legit Sakic/Draper (yes I still have one) is close, but looks like it’s been tweaked a little. It’s looks like a bit more toe and a bit more open. I guess you could say that the W03 & P19 are closer to the orgianl Sakic/Draper than the P92. I think we get hung up on “this is a clone of that” when it’s more so one companies version vs another and there may be subtle differences from one to the other. Could be marketing influence to it as well. Everyone has to make what everyone else makes. Edited May 13, 2018 by stick9 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The P92 is good for stickhandling, however it's difficult to keep passes on the ice and backhand due to the deep curve. I'm a playmaker/defender who's priorities are passing and stickhandling. I also would prefer a 5.5 or 6 lie. Which curve would suit me best? BASE Hockey offers its BM09 Modano clone in Lie 6. It's not an exact clone of the PM9 (that would be the BB09, only offered in Lie 5), but it's your best bet for a high-lie pattern you'll like. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

flip12 712 Report post Posted May 22, 2018 It works better for me with this link, (lopping off the options at the end of the url you posted @MrData) Was it you that did that blog post on the BC27? His verdict on it is pretty much contrary to the one in the blog: that you have blade contact with the puck at all times because of the rocker. He says you can easily lose contact with the puck due to the aggressive rocker. If I'm seeing the info on the BASE site correctly, it's the BM09, which has multiple lie options, that has the more rockered heel. He just switches around the comparison, saying BM09 is a clone of the Bauer PM9, and the BB09 is a clone of the Easton E4. According to the BASE curve comparison chart, it's listed the other way around: BM09 is supposed to be similar to the E4 and the BB09 is supposed to be similar to the other brands' versions of the (roughly) same curve. Thanks for posting the video, it has some nice comparisons between the curves. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
