wickedwrister 0 Report post Posted February 3, 2005 From what I understand, the new TPS Tkachuk blade pattern is a Modano clone. I need to know if the X1 Tkachuk pattern has always been the Modano clone or is it only the "new" ones? I ask because I really like the construction of the X1. Thanks.

Eazy_b97 1 Report post Posted February 3, 2005 I believe it is only the new ones. They just recently changed it to a clone (mid-late '04) and I thought the X-1s came out before then. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Eazy_b97 1 Report post Posted February 3, 2005 Gaborik was changed to the Elias. Both are essentially a Modano which is what the new Tkachuk is. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kobe 0 Report post Posted February 3, 2005 Don't worry. The Tkachuk/Modano pattern is one of the most common patterns around. Almost every company has a pattern that is a clone or something similar. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JGraz15 55 Report post Posted February 3, 2005 The PTC was out last year, it is a higher end blade than the X1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Eazy_b97 1 Report post Posted February 3, 2005 I thought it was still replacing it as the "high end blade" the timing just overlapped a bit, which I also thought happened with the R2 blades and Response OPS. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chadd 916 Report post Posted February 3, 2005 X1's have been discontinued for '05. Stock up if you like them... I still have a bunch of the 04 X1's. More LH than RH though. I prefer the feel of the RTM ones over the pre-preg. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
