twistoffate19 0 Report post Posted March 21, 2005 I just have two quick questions. #1- For anyone that has a Hex-1 or Hex-1 Grip, how's the durability so far?#2- Does Mission still have a "Drury" type curve? I know they had the Carter. But I was told they don't have it anymore.thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EBondo 242 Report post Posted March 21, 2005 correct me if im wrong, but it seems that the Riberio curve is closest Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Eazy_b97 1 Report post Posted March 21, 2005 It's there, just not on the Hex-1 or L-2. It looks like I may give the Rebeiro a shot. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
UMWhockey 0 Report post Posted March 21, 2005 One of the guys that plays in the adult leagu at our rink met the guy who paints sticks for mission or something like that. He sent him a stick and it was a hex-2. It was a hex shaft and a hex blade. It was gold. Does anyone know anything about this.... it looked nice. I don't have anything from mission on it.

twistoffate19 0 Report post Posted March 22, 2005 (Not to sound rude) But no one has answered my question as to, is there going to be a Drury type curve for the Hex-1/Hex-1 Grip?Someone mentioned Ribeiro (sp?) and on greatskate.com the Ribeiro says "slightly open toe lie 5." Slightly open toe doesn't sound like a Drury to me. If they have the McCauley curve, I can work with that since I use Lidstrom and Drury...but Drury is preferred.thanks again Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Eazy_b97 1 Report post Posted March 22, 2005 Actually, they have. No. The Carter, Drury clone, is not offered. The closest is probably the Ribeiro or the Elias, both are fairly different. The Ribeiro is not really similar to another pattern. If you have your heart set on a Drury, look in another direction, if you don't look for something thats similar, which they have provided.You asked "Does Mission still have a "Drury" type curve?" and it was answered. Yes, but not on the Hex-1. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

chippa13 1844 Report post Posted March 22, 2005 I haven't seen the Ribiero yet but from the sound of it I would guess it is similar to the Inno Kariya pattern. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Chadd 916 Report post Posted March 23, 2005 Is the Ribiero curve similar to the TPS P13 curve? I don't think it's as open as the P13. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JR Boucicaut 3810 Report post Posted April 2, 2005 Justin - why the change from Aldila to TrueTemper?Granted - TrueTemper has made great shafts in the past, namely the Christian DiamondLite and the SW Force. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
