Which chest protector should I go with? And what is your favourite stick?
Ccm premier 2.9 stick is amazing in my opinion
The Puck Stops Here, Whoa! Fellow Model 3 owner!! 👋🏻
Heard a lot of great things about Warrior lately. Definitely gonna try them next time around.
I use a Bauer 2S stick and a Vaughn VE8 chesty, I don’t feel a thing with it, and the stick is amazing as well :)
Like i said in the other video... Go with warrior. I just feel like they last longer and already feel broken in. My stick choice would the warrior cr2 or cr3. Or the ccm premier line is nice as well.
I really like the x700 sticks from Bauer. I can only imagine how much better they are the more you go up
Also, the Vaughn VE8 Pro Carbon THS Spec is the best chesty I have ever worn. NHL beef up package in the arms and sternum (should help with those gut shots), as well as carbon fiber in the sternum, shoulders, and belly blocks. There is also Kevlar in the belly padding. To top it all off, it’s easily the most mobile chesty on the market. It’s top dollar, but it’s 100% worth it.
Carter MacEwen how much does that one go for with that setup?
I have the Warrior Ritual G4 and I love it. You don’t have to break it in at all when you step onto the ice and it feels like a Protecter you’ve had for years. No problems with it
Don’t get the one with the plastic get the one that was under the one you picked out.
I love how much of a leader you are on the ice and i think you deserve alot more subscribers, it sorta sucks that theirs not much traffic in goalie videos keep up the good work!
Ps. Im a fan of the warrior swagger p12 i think and im rocking a ccm premier stick
Lol I didn’t expect a game after you looked at chest protection
I hope you didn’t mind lol :)
@@ThePuckStopsHere I did not mind
Nice video again Sam. I did upload a new one too yesterday and i taught i got a lot of shots but you actually got 2 more haha. Good job again watching your video make me realise i need to improve my game a lot....... And my video editing too haha
MarCo Lorado thanks for that and I’ll have to check out your video. I’m glad you are finding my videos helpful :) keep it up 👍
I recently got a warrior chest protector and noticed also that it was really bulky with the big shoulder cups and considered switching but my coach said it will help stay bigger in the net
Pretty good skaters you faced and the shots they were producing. Good rebound control dude
The Wall thanks, yeah some of their players were pretty good. But I know I can play better and I’ll get them next time!
I’ve got the CCM Extreme Shield II Pro and it’s an awesome chest protector. Very customizable, super light, form fitting, perfect sized shoulder floaters, D3O foam in the chest so you won’t feel those direct bombs to the chest. Arms offer very good mobility and protection. I upgraded from a Warrior Ritual Sr GT because those arms were not very protective.
Good to know. I like what I heard about the Shield 2, but I will need to try it on before I make a decision.
I love these types of vids can you make more please!
Seth Carroll of course! :)
Thanks!
I've got the exact same Warrior Ritual as you were trying, even the same size! It's just a different colour. I really like it, agree it feels a little bulky (though it's my first ever chest protector so I'm sure everything would feel bulky) but I still have yet to feel any pain from getting hit by shots.
Meikkhaell nice. If the arms were a bit smaller it would be perfect but again, I think it can all be adjusted. So I’ll have to see when I go back to buy one.
I personally wear the Bauer s29, it’s half the price of the 1s, and at high school varsity i got very few stingers, it was also extremely quick to break in
Sweet glove save at 12:45 yo! Thanks for taking us into PHL, always curious about that joint, hope its all good!
Thanks and no problem. Do you not have PHL where you are from?
@@ThePuckStopsHere nope. I grew up in Minnesota but live in Tennessee now, LOL outside of the Preds, hockey is a rarity here.
Chasing Photography Films gotcha. I’m in Nashville this week filming at the Gaylord Manner hotel. It’s crazy cool here.
Another great video like always
Thank you!
For the stick, I love my ccm premiere 2 pro a bit expensive but great stick for deflecting pucks to the corners and playing the puck.
I just started using a CCM Premier, but I don't think it is a 2 pro. So far I am liking it.
I use the ccm premier 2 it’s a great stick but that true looks awesome as well
Love your videos
Thanks! I love that you watch them! Thank you
I have used warrior, Bauer, CCM, Sherwood, and infinity sticks, varying from wood to foam core to composite and by far my favorite is the warrior CR1. And as far as chest guards go I have the original warrior ritual chesty and love it, gonna need a new one soon though lol.
HaleyHockeyHighlights the CR1. Okay, I’ll have to check it out. And why are you going to need a new chesty? Did that one wear out?
Vaughn V6 2200 Pro. Still probably the most mobile one out there. My favorite stick is an old model Warrior Swagger Howard model. Thing has a great curve and its very whippy.
Dharmaboy I love Vaughn... I’ll have to try one before I make my decision.
@@ThePuckStopsHere You can get some used even in good shape. Honestly the most mobile unit of the group. I hate boxy C/A as I am a hybrid goalie and not pure butterfly. Everything out there is Robocop stiff. Unless you go Kennesky which is what most of the NHL has switched to
Dharmaboy your the first to mention Kennesky. I haven’t tried theirs on yet. I’ll have to look into it as well. I was thinking about used. But it’s probably going to be my last C/A so I think I’ll go new just because I don’t plan on getting another one.
Love the true sticks because they feel like a foam core that holds it's feel longer, but my second one lasted only 2 weeks. I've been getting them on sale so I keep picking them up
Jen Taylor it only lasted 2 weeks! Did you get a new one under warranty?
Oh I see. Well even if they are on clearance, they should still be covered under warranty. I believe, but I’m not 100% sure.
I just tried my first composite, since I didn’t know if I would like them (foam core user) I went with the budget Warrior CR3. Besides having more jump when the puck hits it (cost me a few goals until I figured it out) it’s been a great stick. Plus stores have them on sale from time to time and I can get them for $80, which is less than I pay for foam cores. I may venture out and try the True but for now the CR3’s are working great, and they are much lighter than my Warrior foam cores
If you can get it for $80 that is amazing. And I felt the same when I transitioned from the Sherwood foam core to the CCM composite. I do like the composite now as I feel I can get a better shot off and it is also the right size for me.
For the chest protector I rock a Warrior Ritual G4 feels bulky but it actually really flexible and lots of places to customize for fit and easy to slip on, for the stick I use a Bauer supreme
I don't like the idea of feeling bulky but I did like the feel of it. I will have to try it on again. And I will have to check out the supreme. You are the 2nd person to say that so far.
The Puck Stops Here 2nd I feel special
If you like the low vibration feel of a foam core I would recommend the premier 2 stick it has a very stiff blade and has very little vibration like a foam core but you get the lightness of a composite and the puck playing benefits, and I have also heard many good things about the new warriors, I know for a fact there Vibexlite is revolutionary when it comes to a vibrationless composite stick and a lot of nhl tendys are moving to either ccm Bauer or warrior sticks.
C_GOALIE_ 1 that is very good advice. Thank you. I never thought about the vibration from composite sticks before as I have never used one. But I’ll check out the CCM and Bauer’s
I use a Sher wood BPM 150 stick. It’s composite and really like and it’s amazing. Been using it for 6 months now and have had zero issues with it so far at a AA level
No chips or cracks yet?
I like the ccm premier 2 stick and I have the Vaughn v7 chest protector and it’s a great chesty, i recommend it
Yeah? What curve do you have on that stick?
I'm using a warrior cr1 mrazek curve 26' paddle and I love it feels so sturdy not the lightest stick but is a light stick compared to foam core the only thing I'd change is more grip on the handle also give piranha pegs a shot if you hate you post popping off
Ethan Corner I like the idea of a rubber grip on the handle of the stick. I don’t tape it there so that would be good. And they just got some piranha pegs for the leauge so I am quite excited to try them out!
Great vid! I use a bauer s29 stick and love how light they are and for a non pro level it's durable as hell. Chesty I'm using an older Vaughn v6, probably gonna go 1x in the summer. Chestys are so tough to fit for new because they're all a bit odd to get used to at first. As for the game itself just another one you got hung out to dry as they happen, but you handle heavy workloads in style bud. Never a bad vid :)
The Bauer S29 yeah? I’ll have to take a look next time I am in the store. Your like the 6th person who mentioned Vaughn. I know I’m wearing one now and I love it. So maybe I should try another one. And thanks, I am getting use to a ton of shots and like it. Better then no shots. Lol
@@ThePuckStopsHere Yeah I pick up S29's even at sportcheck if I'm lucky for like $120 and they're good sticks. And Vaughnhad good chesties, and they age well but might be time to try something new.
Hey I’m new man love the content
Legomanloves Hockey thanks! I appreciate you watching!
Thanks for the vid
Thanks for watching it!
Great video! That 4th goal between your legs...😬 but it’s ok, those kind of goals will always happen. It wasn’t your best game but you made incredible saves!👍😉
Thanks, yeah I didn't have the best game. Easily could have won that one for my team.
I love my ccm foam core eflex 3 pro 27" stick and from what I have heard a fair amount of composite sticks break easier and especially the true sticks but you hear more bad then good so it's a tough battle most my mates use a Vaughan V8E chest protector they say it's one of the best movement wise and padding wise.
Yeah, I’m worried about composite which is why I have never bit the bullet for one of those. But a lot of people are saying good things. So maybe I should try. And yeah, I love my Vaughn. I’ll have to try on some more Vaughan’s before I make my buying decision.
My favourite stick is the CCM R1.5 with a 26” or 27” paddle. I’ve had it for a few seasons now and I’ve played 1-2 times per week without any issues.
Yeah? So it is durable?
try out the Bauer supreme s27 or 1s stick
Been using the true for about 6 months and it’s probably my favourite stick ever great shooting and pretty solid durability.
Theo Farano yeah? How’s the vibration?
The Puck Stops Here next to no vibration way better then The old true sticks also been using a 2s stick as well not as good durability but definitely a bit lighter if you can believe it would say those are the two best sticks on the market today
Did you visit PHL Heartland??? That's my home one too, I kinda recognized it from the inside, but when you went outside as well it totally looked like it was Heartland...
I have 2 warrior cr1 se’s with the quick curve and I love the durability and I find I shoot really well with it. But I wear all warrior gear so I might be biased..
Well you must like warrior a lot if you wear all their gear. I keep hearing good things about the CR1’s. It is in my list of sticks to check out for sure.
I use the Bauer vapor stick it’s a good dependable stick (I’m a full right goalie)
I had thee original Warrior. I use to be a very active goalie with my catcher and it made me become more of a blocking style because of the arm mechanism
6th String Tender really? Is that because it was bulky?
The Puck Stops Here To me yes! Amazing protection in the arms, never felt a single shot from any range no matter if it was a Pro -> Rec player. I just found it had me more so tucking my elbows down and into my body rotating my glove downwards instead of staying up and out
Ive just recently purchased a Bauer elite chest and arm protector. I’m happy with the overall protection and it fits well, but there seems to be a gap in protect on the under side of the wrists. Any pointers?
If it helps I’m 15 and I play for an academy so level I play at is high and the shots are hard and the protection I get is great
I'm 10
i have a warrior v1 pro + stick and i love them
Hey man great vid I mean all there goals were good but do you think you can put a camera on the other side so we can see the other goalie or is it to hard
I really want to do that, but I don’t have another camera. I do want to have one at both ends though and perhaps in the future I will 👍
I think I use the exact same stick as you (Sher-wood foam core) but with a 26" paddle. I picked up one of those new TRUE sticks, and it is LIGHT! but I wonder about vibration. I'd need to get some shots on me with it. Would love to hear other's experiences.
Yeah, mine is foam core too. Please let me know how the vibration is when you get s good shot off it 👍
I noticed you used more helmet cam footage. I don't know if that is because of my last comment or not but it was really enjoyable to watch.
Thomas Lough yeah, a few of you guys have mentioned more helmet cam footage, so I put more in when it was a simple shot that you can see the save on that footage. So thanks for the feedback 👍
i use bauer sticks for my goalie career and you should try one out.btw your a really good goalie
Koy Lanoue I will check out their sticks. And thanks, I appreciate that.
Warrior CR3 stick for me. Have had it for 4 months and still going strong for the price. Light and I can stick handle well with it
Yeah? Is it carbon?
@@ThePuckStopsHere yes carbon composite. I know they use vibrex technology to help against stingers and i found it to help a lot. For 100$ (in southern California) worth the price
can you make a video of just glove saves but from your helmet cam. by the way love your videos
I had an older true composite, it was the lightest stick I ever owned. It was literally the best stick, I loved it. Its so much easier to move around and get from side to side with it, you don't know the difference a lighter stick makes until you try it. Only drawback was that it broke after someone crashed the net, a bulkier stick would have probably held up better.
That’s awesome to hear except for it getting broken. How long did you have it for before it broke? And what part of the stick broke?
@@ThePuckStopsHere I actually had it for a good 5 months, but it surprisingly broke on the paddle, about 5 inches above the heel. It probably break more easily than any other composite.
I see. That sucks but I guess there is always a compromise between weight and durability. Can have the lightest stick and expect it to last the longest. But I wonder if that player didn’t crash the net, how much longer it would have lasted.
I use a Bauer prodigy p31 (ima squirts goalie and new so it was a good stick for a good price)
0:32 you should add knots to your pad laces it will stop stem from moving and it will give you more toe mobility if you don’t know what I’m talking about look it up
I use that CCM chest protector and it takes a few games to get used to. But great things overall
Which CCM do you use?
The Puck Stops Here my fault the warrior one. They look so much alike
I know that referee, used to play at the rink you're at all the time, he is one of the better one ASHL has on the go, pretty good guy and one of their more consistent refs
Yeah, I have never really had issues with him.
I rock a Passau Chest pad and use Warrior Swagger and Abyss. Love the Swagger and Passau.
Yeah? Do you mind me asking how much the Passau was? I keep hearing a lot of good things about them
@The Puck Stops Here
I got mine used for $200 and it is a gen 1 body with gen 2 arms. So far it has been amazing. Going on my second year with it.
Ken Walsh wow, that’s an amazing deal you got. Maybe I’ll look for some used ones too
Currently using an SLR pro chesty, 300 bucks and it's survived ACHA and B league with minimal stingers. Great bang for your buck chesty. And also for sticks go with the Bauer 2S. It's hella durable, and lasts WAY longer than the 2S pro
DeathByTheFox $300 for a good chesty sounds awesome. And yeah, the 2S Pro doesn’t look like it will last long. I’m skeptical about using it.
Sammy!!! Go with a composite stick. You’ll never switch back!! And how tall are you?
27” paddle is huge and I find will give you a bigger 7 hole (between the arm and body) when in the butterfly.
I’m roughly 6’ off stakes and use a 25” paddle.
Keep up the great work!! 👍🏼
bigsteed007 I’m 6 ft too. Perhaps I should try a smaller paddle. Never thought of trying anything smaller then 27”. Maybe I should.
In my opinion I think that you should go for the warrior chest protector because once you wear the Warrior chesty for like two ice times it gets broken in very nicely and you have awesome wrist mobility and you get no stingers.
Yeah? I will try it on again when I go to buy one in May.
i would have gone with the warrior personally because of how fast it breaks in and how comfortable it feels off the shelf
I have a true 6.0 it’s has held up AA shots for 5 months and i love it
Ty Jones is it still holding up?
yes it is very durable
Ty Jones nice! I’ll look into it. Thanks for the suggestion.
Vaughn chestys all the way and I personally use the warrior v1 pro+ it’s a great stick with crazy durability.
I’m not even a goalie and this was still fun/interesting to watch
That’s awesome to hear 👍
Im using a true right now its great!
Yeah? Is it durable?
I got the warrior G4 pro it is one of the best chestys I have gotten to demo a lot of different ones and it was the better one for me
The stick I am currently using is the 2s pro I don’t recommend it as it splits at the spine pretty easy I’d go with the 1X or Vaughn
Terrance Archie noted on the G4 and yeah, the 2s Pro does look like it would break pretty easily. How long did you have it before it started to split at the spine?
I love my Warrior CR3 stick really light really durable
Nice :)
I use a Vaughn V7 XF Pro Carbon. The thing is a tank and comes pretty much broken in. 1 ice time and I was good to go. Also the Bauer 2S Pro stick is an unreal stick.
I’ve heard a lot about this pro carbon. I really need to check it out before I make my decision 👍 and the 2S looks and feels good, but I’m still very sceptical on the durability.
@@ThePuckStopsHere Yeh you should check it out for sure! I had the same concerns regarding durabilty ( mainly due to the spine on the back). I have had mine 2 months so far and I have 5 ice times a week at amatuer level and there is not a scratch so far! The performance is unreal
I have a 23 inch paddle from a Sher Wood I believe it is a 530 (not sure I’ll update when ever) it’s Broduer curve. Wood stick, I can take slapshots just like that.
Nice, I think full wood is too heave. I like the foam core but that True stick was just so light. I really want to try it.
It does get heavy but I did get it on sale for 35 dollars
Well that’s a great deal! Can’t pass that up
I picked up a Warrior R/G4 Sr Chesty and I love it.
Yeah? What do you love most about it?
The Puck Stops Here it’s super adjustable and versatile. I don’t feel shots and can still move pretty well it in. Warrior includes some extra extension pads that can come out allowing it to be suitable for either tucked or untucked.
crazynova23 oh that’s cool about the additional extensions. I like that.
I like using the infinity goalie sticks. The sizing is a little different but a 27 inch would be like a 29 inch for infinity goalie
Libor Gallik oh wow. I didn’t know they were that different in sizing. Wow. Good to know!
Good video. I am in the market for a new chesty. Let me know what you settle on.
I use a warrior stick dropped my paddle size from 28" to 25" and i like the added mobility i get with it
Really? How tall are you? I never thought of going with a smaller paddle. And I will do a follow up email about the chesty come May.
I am 5'10". I used to like having a longer stick for poke checking and playing the puck. But i have found that the opposite is true for me. I am more comfortable in my stance and can play more aggressively with a shorter paddled stick. I find it helps me on post hugs and wrap around attempts as well
Just got some new to me gear....all sherwood formerly belonging to wade dubielewicz of NYI....rocking a montreal stick
Nice and a Montreal stick.. do you like it? Is it composite or foam core?
My current stick is a Warrior Ritual CR2
My wife and I both use a warrior ritual goalie stick and like them.
JaredInBlack bro I can’t imagine marrying another goalie
That would be awesome!
@@ThePuckStopsHere It is awesome! I didn't play when we met. She has played since she was a teenager. We are about the same height and have been able to share a lot of the gear, we almost have 2 complete sets now. I play down a couple levels from where she plays.
That’s so cool!
Barron because they are cool paints and all of them are tuff
I have a warrior and there’s definitely some friction with the length of the arms and my blocker and glove. I feel like I can’t rotate enough. I went with medium body and small arms. Does anyone know if I can adjust the length of the arms so I have more rotation? There’s a ton of adjustments I just can’t seem to find any for that.
Vaughn XF7 Pro Carbon, got it on a 33% sale, but had been eyeing it for about 6 months prior. I got lucky :) and also play Medium so that's kinda the last sizes to get off the shelves :)
Favorite stick: Sher-Wood T80 ... alot higher quality than the GS350 that I bought from them before, the GS350 is Made in China and the quality & durability was shit. The composite however, was top notch and I haven't seen any signs of needing a replacement for it. I have used it over 1 year now, 2-3 times a week on average.
I have 5 true sticks, 3 different models, and they're all insanely good. Super durable for the price, and the feel great in your hand.
MCF Entertainment how are they when it comes to stick handling and shooting pucks?
@@ThePuckStopsHere the PC curve is absolutely perfect for elevating and getting pucks out of the zone. I find is very easy to elevate over the net in warmups. So 10/10 for stickhandling and shooting.
Sweet, I need to work on my shooting as you might have seen in a few games when I try to play the puck. I don’t get much power behind my passes and most of the time give up the puck. So perhaps that curve will help!
@@ThePuckStopsHere yes it should. Let me know if you buy one.
I have the Warrior G2 Pro (with the plastic arm sliders) and love it. But make sure the arms fit right, I wish I went down a size.
Also for the stick. I just got a Warrior CR3 (my first composite) Love it so far
Nathan Millsap what size did you get and how long have you had the composite stick?
@@ThePuckStopsHere chesty was large with large arms (I'm 5"11 190lbs) . The stick is holding up great, so light that I'm having issues keeping the paddle down.
Nathan Millsap I didn’t think about a stick being so light that it’s hard to keep it down. That’s an interesting fact. And I see why you said you should have went with a smaller size. I’m 6’0 and I think I am going to go with a medium in what ever chesty I get. I’ve always felt large is to big on me.
@@ThePuckStopsHere I think the chest is fine (I like big) but the arms bend too far down. I got them on sale and that's all they had and for $200 for a pro chesty... I wasn't going to complain. I might call up warrior and buy medium replacement arms in the future.
Nathan Millsap that’s a great idea and what a steal!
I had a game yesterday, and we got out shot 48 to 22. We tied it up and then lost in ot, do to a 2 on 0. was a rough game but we all have those days. also had a question of where did you buy your cameras?
russel Funk well it sounds like you had a great game. You can buy them on amazon or any camera store. There are links to the ones I use in the description of the video 👍
I have the Warrior G4 Pro chesty and it feels like armor. Warrior chesty rewards you for playing a strict blocking butterfly style; the elbow blocks feel like two extra gloves, and the design of the plastic on the biceps make the hardest of shots just die and roll into the elbows. It feels almost like cheating, but I would only recommend it to a blocking butterfly goalie, or as a second one for practices or where you want more protection (Div1/Div2).
I use true for 1 year hasn’t broken yet best stick I have used
How often do you play?
Warrior sticks are great. Lighter, great durability, and good puck handling mobility
Rewatched because of boredom + youtube rabbithole and i was curious if you're still using a 27" paddle? I'm 6'0" and used to use a 27" and switched last year to 26" True A6.0 and much prefer it!
Stephen Kyriakou nice and nope, I’ve switched to a 26” as well and will only use my 27” if that one breaks.
I have a Vaughn V7 pro carbon chest and arm...love how the chest fits, but I have to always adjust my arms and push them up. I’ve performed surgery on my set fixing the straps. For sticks I have a some CCM premier sticks, so light and hard to break!
I like Vaughn, I think they always make great gear. But I am really interesting in trying something new now. I will have to see what they have come May.
I love my Vaughn Carbon Fiber Chesty. It felt that it was broken in the first time and light as a feather. Took some hard shots and felt great! I also love my Bauer 2s Pro! Pricey, but great. Durable and light.
goaliegeorge is that Vaughn something you find off the shelf? Or did you have to order it? And yeah, those sticks are pricey... that’s why I’ve never tried them.
Vaughn is the correct answer in chest protectors. They are the most mobile right off the shelf. I'm not sure what the salesman is talking about.
goaliegeorge the only complaint I have is that you can’t remove the arms on the Vaughn armor to better adjust where they attach. If they offered a couple areas to attach or mount the arms I think they could be more customizable. Concerning the video where he said CCM were the top selling armor, I tried out the CCM Premier armor and felt there were too many straps to adjust on my back. I needed a buddy to help me out to adjust so I asked my wife to help and she became tired of helping me adjust them to where they felt good.
my true stick is awesome. i have been using it for 8 months, have probably taken 300 shots off the paddle, and there is no superficial damage
That’s amazing to hear. That sounds pretty durable to me.
@@ThePuckStopsHere it is very durable, has scraped some paint off and a couple like 2 millimetre chips in it, but nothing that effects the integrity
How tall are you cause I am getting chesty and it’s senior medium it’s a Bauer s27 and I am 5.5 and a half and 13 so do you think it will fit
In my humble opinion dude, if you want mobility and feel (aka Jonny Quick style), I'd go with the VE8 Senior Pro (not the Carbon Pro; that's the highest most expensive end model).
I had the epic chesty for about 10 years, and just made the switch to the Ve8. I don't give a shit for size, bulkiness, technology, etc haha I really just wanted something that felt AMAZING, and allowed me to move however I wanted. The Ve8 does that, and I barely had to break it in too. It felt broken in after about one or two skates.
As for the stick, I'm a huge CCM Premier guy (I believe it's the P2.9, so not the higher end composite one, but the tier right below it). The Price Toe Curve is the best stick I've ever owned. It's light, it's thin (so easy to grip on your blocker). Only thing you might have to do is sand off the built in grip shit at the paddle. I found it stuck way too much to my blocker so it was impossible to slide my hand up the stick to poke or play the puck, but if you sand it off it's perfect.
Hey cool, you shop at the Heartland PHL also?
My favorite stick rn is my Warrior CR1 barely feel vibrations and if I do it doesn’t hurt at all.
How is the durability?
The Puck Stops Here Ive had it a couple months and I play JV level, other than outer paint chips from regular bangs everything’s perfectly fine.
I just picked up a Bauer 1x stick today. One thing I will say Is it's been years since I bought a new stick and I'm not sure if they have changed the scaling of them but I wanted to get a slightly shorter stick this time so I went with a 27" compared to my 28 1/2 and the 1x turns out to be taller 😂😂 both senior Bauer vapour just my old one is a 7 year old x50. Not sure what the deal with that is but I thought it was weird
SkylineLynar I can’t believe you have a stick that lasted 7 years. Sounds like an awesome stick lol. And yeah, I bet the sizing has changed since then.
@@ThePuckStopsHere ya man, she was a beauty the only bad damage in it is from me lol. It's been my only stick the whole time as well. Kinda why I decided to get spare in case she finally decides to go. I never really played a high level of hockey so I'm guessing that's why it lasted so long .
SkylineLynar gotcha. I think my Sherwood’s usually last about 1.5 seasons playing men’s leauge once a week. But that’s awesome that yours has lasted that long. 👍
Yes
Love my g4 pro
Never personally had a True stick, but I've only seen negative reviews on their durability (on GGSU).
I'm a big fan of the Warrior CA but have seen those plastic pieces fall apart. I'm not sure if the Pro G4 has a "Classic" but that's what they call their line with normal forarm protection without the plastic
Jason Paul I’m always worried about the durability of composite sticks. That’s why I’ve never switched from foam core. And thanks for the info on the Warrior. 👍
My coach bought a couple True sticks and he landed me one to try out. It's a 4.5, P31 curve and tbh I hate it. Played 1 period with it and couldn't do it anymore. I'm used to wood sticks, so having a composite one made me feel like I was gonna break it at any moment. And the material of the shaft is more "grippy", so it makes it hard to slide off your stick to poke check. My blocker gets stuck there. But maybe it has to do with the material of my palm (i'm not sure what it is but i use a CCM Eflex 400 blocker, not the newest). I wouldn't buy one personally.
Dude Bro I feel the same about the durability but perhaps it’s something to get use to. Especially if most goalies are using them these days. I just don’t like the idea of spending $300 on something that might break easier then the $120 stick I am using which typically lasts about a season or 2.
The Puck Stops Here Unless there was an exceptional deal or something, i wouldn't buy it if I were you. Trying on new things and moving on from old equipment is exciting, but sometimes it's best to stick with what's comfortable to us
I can understand that theory for sure. If it works don’t fix it right. But that’s like driving a Toyota your whole life and it works and then you have the opportunity to drive a Tesla but because you think “mine works, so I won’t like the Tesla” and then never experiencing something new and way better. I definitely want to try some composites, just need to wait for some deals or demos to see which one I like the best.
I currently use a 2S pro that was kindly given to me by a local pro, amazing stick, but not worth the money if you have to pay for it. If I was buying my own it would likely be either a Warrior CR1 or the True A6.0
Have you played with the CR1 or the A6.0?
@@ThePuckStopsHere I have used the CR1, Felt very similar to the 1S/2S Senior (not pro) in my opinion, not much between them, big difference for me is the grip, that's what has kept me using bauer sticks, I like a full grip where the paddle meets the shaft, the CR1 only has grip on the paddle (at least the one I used did, not Sure if that's something that can be speced on custom orders). From speaking to a few guys using the A6.0 they have all been saying great things about it's reliability and performance, and over in the UK it is a good bit cheaper than the 2S stuff, so I would say it's Deffinitly worth a punt if your wanting to try out some composite sticks.
CCM pro flex is amazing. Or if you want to be creative go with the CCM Premiere Pro chest and change the arms on it to the CCM Shield for mobility in the arms.
Jason Dowling yeah? Do they do that?
@@ThePuckStopsHere it would be custom but I'm sure they would
Yeah, I would like to think so too.
also i would prefer ccm pro chest protector
The goalie interference thing might’ve been valid, but the whole deflection thing was wrong. Jake DeBrusk scored a goal off of his chest just a couple of weeks ago. Also, that hockey store looked like you said-a candy store! I’ve always wanted to go to the Goalie Monkey store in Tampa Bay, it’s like a Walmart size store just for goalies, I don’t even think there’s player gear there. Great game by the way!
-Scotch- yeah, it is like a candy store, I didn’t even show off like 10% of the store. It is massive. Anything you could want regarding hockey you can get there.
Bauer 2s pro stick p31 curve rock!
I've heard good things about the 2s. :)
If you're not in a hurry to buy i've read a lot of good things about the Kenesky pops pro 1 chest protector
So did you end up moving up or down a division? Good game.
I think that was just a one off game in a higher decision. They do that some times for schedule reasons.
Now I'm not a goalie (not yet anyways) but from what I've seen on RUclips, No Name Hockey goalie sticks are just like that True stick, but a lot cheaper (I think its like $300 for a 3 pack of sticks)
Thanks for the tip. I haven't tried the No Name Hockey sticks yet. Perhaps I will look into them when I need a new stick.
So i play high school hockey starting goalie 4 varsity in our locker room i have a variety of 10 different sticks trues feel ur holding air i like bauer rebook warrior and trues but they r a rlly good stick
Dmoney30 I feel like I can’t go wrong with either choice. Just gotta see what the curves are like.
@@ThePuckStopsHere idc what curve it is as long as its more than a 90° angle
Dmoney30 gotcha 👍
