Thanks for that. 12 is too many for me but that stick looks so good! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I wonder what the stock tongue will be. Im in the 15' 1Xs and i really like that tongue heard mixed options on the 17' 1Xs tongue Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JR Boucicaut 3797 Report post Posted January 3, 2019 Now that Warrior confirmed it, yeah..it looks cool, but as you can see, it doesn't help much on a marketing standpoint when your main logo hit is done up in black foil...and the stick's black. Other than that, it's a nice stick. 11 hours ago, sbecks72986 said: Based on the comfort edge pads id say its likely the new 1X will have flexible tendon guards. On what basis?

Other than that, it's a nice stick. Not to mention most people will tape over the majority of the green section if you use any kind of long knob. It’s visible on Chara’s because he’s presumably using stock length +4000 inches. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I’m basing that off of the fact the comfort edge pads don’t go straight into the tendon guard like the previous 1Xs did, they have a notch where you can see his sock fit into that little notch like the way the supremes comfort edge do. In other pics the tendon guard looked like the supreme tendon guard. That’s my guess obviously I can be wrong. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The lace wrap also makes me cringe, but hey; he's a pro and I'm just a crappy beer league player. So if it works for him then it works. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
