I think Sid's contract with Sherwood that he signed in Jr's is finally up, so he can finally go RBK for sticks as well, might see him using one of these this season.
It honestly seems to me that reebok sticks break easily. I bought one when I played out and it snapped the first game I used it in, and trust me I don't have a shot. Also, the reebok stick I bought for net broke after about three games. The Nike Bauer sticks I bought however, I couldn't break them if I tried, and with a defense like mine...
All of this to say that no matter who endorses them or what gimmick they come up with to sell their stuff, I'm out on paying for it. Just a heads up

Hrm, was there this weekend and the one guy told me they were selling them for $230.
From people who had used it, they said not to expect it to be the lightest stick by any means. Thing definitely felt blade heavy, but obviously I didn't get to shoot with it.

People can balk at the price, but sadly I think there's a market for $200+ sticks if people believe the hype. Synergy's came out 5 years ago for $150 people and sold well. Stealth's came out 3 years for $200 and sold well. So I think this just the natural progression.
There's nothing wrong with using a $30 Sherwood, but there are enough beer leaguers with expendable income that enjoy using the composites.
the wind drag from the stick is negligible. No one would be able tell the difference between two blades of the same weight and weight distribution.
Just a big gimmick.
However, I use composite sticks when I play because I can't find a wooden one long enough.
If I could find one, I'd use it.
ooooooooo... isnt that a really coolll looking stick... y dont i return my 30 buck stick and buy this 200some dollar stick cuz i do play in the NHL and want to double my points per game average just like datsuk did!!!

I actually messed around with with this stick before. A friend of mine has this stick.
It's pretty sick. If you play on a very high level, like Division I or so, then it'd be worth it. Not for recreational hockey by all means.

You'd be saddened to know how many players are really like this. I'm a bit of a stick whore myself, but all of mine were either free or I bought them on clearance.
// teammate's cousin works for Easton
// might be time to ask for some table scraps again
