Like if hockey is the best sport
It is i mean soccer is Good too
No it not
That's way to ez to ask
@@Kkronan827 shut up you tellatubby
Hockey
Like if hockey is better than soccer
P
Hockey is the best
i can’t like i’m sorry bcuz it has 69 likes and i can’t ruin that
That’s the most biased thing ever lol
No way
Use Howie's wax like if you agree . One 👍means you love hockey.
Sex wax is 20 times better
@Scott Mallon If you didn't know we can obviously see you have edited that and you may have forgotten to put the comma. Smdh
Jacob E truthfully my self I like the wax that coach Jeremy promotes
Jacob E but Howies is 2nd
As a goalie, I like to apply a generous layer of wax on my blade. Really helps keep the tape dry and and prevent snow from accumulating and I find that rebounds come off a bit softer and a better feel when playing the puck.
Fresh tape on the same stick for every test would’ve been better.
tyscifer yeah, no clue why he wouldn’t at least re tape them. All the ads I got on this video could have paid for a whole box of fresh tape from Howie’s for this guy.
And he seemed to go backwards to logic. The brand new stickier tape gets more wax, worn out tape with little grip left gets no wax. RIGGED :P Not a hater, my son and I are huge fans Nasher :P
are you a gay station* fan
play station
Black tape
@@Smitzky I only got 2adds
I started using wax recently and it's a game changer... first time using it had 4 goals 4 assists.
Nice job!!
Hummmmmmmmm I smell 🧢
Sounds like a coincidence to me lol
Just luck, but now y belive that it works😃
Yeah same lol
OMG guys watch until the end to see the cutest thing ever!!! Its s'cuteeeeee 😍
you're talking about me right
Mate i play in Sydney, Aus on a 3/4 rink and the zamboni is that size. it's so painful waiting for a game
jacobmc i play near brussels belgium
thanks for the heads up I almost clicked off the vid
orrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrorororo
Use Howie’s hockey wax I use it and its amazing!!!! That is the best wax
I got a tin of some in dallas and fell in love with howies wax
Kleanthis Efrosinis yup
Agreed.
Smells great too! 😃
Smells good but there is a better one , it’s called sex wax... I know it sounds wrong
do the same type of thing but with how deep skate sharpenings are
Bigdaddyboss 125 dude this is genius
@Patrick Murphy watched it but it was profilling not deepness of skate sharpening. Im pre sure those r too different things? are they?
I used to work with xhockey products and still sharpen at my local rink. It's all about personal preference. I'm 5'9 about 160lbs and I use 3/8 hollow (deepest you should use but can go deeper). My buddy who is 6'3 about 240lbs also uses 3/8. Just depends if you like more cut or more glide and what benefits your play style more. Just gotta be careful when switching to a deep hollow because you'll notice a big difference and stopping will be harder
run a puck over the wax to heat it up with friction so the wax melts into the tape a bit
Bennett Nowak I’ll try that
Is it trash : play hockey without tape
Daniel Mendes i don’t tape my blade, I honestly feel like it stick handles better
and how long do your blades last lol
Danny_Games playing on ice ? Or outdoor ?
It can damage ur stick I hear
Daniel Mendes no not really
- Trying to show snow and wax buildup on white tape.
- Uses 3 different sticks with varying kick points to test performance of wax.
You have no idea if you just perform better with the 1X versus the QR Edge...
Obviously didn't try very hard for this "test".
I LOVE THESE TYPE OF VIDEOS NASHER! can you do road to a shutout if not that's ok.
Aedan Rathke YES ROAD TO SHUTOUT!!!
Great video, however the only things about the experiment I would change is mainly: Fresh tape on all sticks and use the same stick to avoid change. I know that's not necessarily easy to do so good test. I also might switch up the order throughout tests to make sure the heavy wax isn't always getting the worse ice.
I believe this video missed the mark. I use stick wax, to protect my tape from snow, debris, and moisture. A single stick handle drill will not show the true comparison between no wax, some wax, and a lot of wax. I do not use wax for any "stickiness" factor. I use wax for consistency. I believe that a waxed stick will perform far more consistently in period 1 and period 3 compared to a non waxed stick.
Did he just say vapor qr edge? 0:38
I use a puck instead of wax
Same here, but that's only because I haven't really had any money to buy wax lmao
jack welby that works as well, I use both or just puck or just wax
Yea same
That just makes new tape old
@@MarkusSuomela true but it keeps the tape on
0:28 😂😂Can we all as hockey players take a moment to admire the fact that he balanced all three sticks on the ice like that? (ITS ANNOYING FOR HOCKEY PLAYERS WHEN IT FALLS)
Anybody melt your wax into your tape with a lighter or warming house heater?
Let's go 200k here we go
Stick wax was made so the snow wouldn’t stick to your stick
hockey hockey hockey hockey hockey hockey hockey hockey is every answer Nasher responds to.
Like if agree :)
Nader keep ur hands away from ur body when u shoot u get better power and more accuracy
Nasher is the best!!! Your videos are fun to watch and pretty funny! Thanks for supporting the best game in the world!👍👍
I used wax threw out my years since I was like 8. It helped me out big time . I recommend it but get a good wax . Some wax I find isn’t very good and actually makes you worse . So a good trustful wax and you should be good . I remember one game I forgot my wax at home but had a candle in my bag for what ever reason , probably for the pond stick . Wasn’t waisting good wax for the pond . And used a candle to wax my stick . Actually worked hahahaha
Do a cheap stick vs a mid range stick vs an expensive stick
Jonathan Cristao this! I need a durable stick that last a while.
does the way you tape the knob of your stick change the grip
You should do more roller hockey trickshots
I am the same as you. I've played hockey for 25 years now and rarely do i use wax. I think i will give it a try now after this video. Thanks a lot !
I think using wax is a question of personal preference. I personally use it myself, I put 3 passes on each side of the blade and once at the bottom.
U said vapor QR edge it’s warrior
I use stick wax for my hockey stick who else does
Eric Ink i coat my twig with a shit ton of sex wax
@@spirit1490 oh my
Spirit unless it’s sex wax for hockey don’t use it it can’t handle the temp
Your insane Nasher
00:38 "Vapor QREdge"
-Nasher 2018
Nasher, at 40 seconds in you called the covert a vapor qre.
Anyone hear him say vapour qr edge instend of warrior qr edge
Next time use the same stick and put fresh tape on them too, to make it more fair
This is such a good video like this is incredibly useful info
Like if hockey is the best sport
Can you tell me whats the center you at ?! Its some sort of small rink...
Nasher you are the best
Melt it in over the stove, makes the tape way stronger.
Yes I need this video
Having the same stick would help its not what kind and how much wax you like it’s the stick wax doesn’t change your game
Literally 3 days ago I practiced without wax and was wondering the exact same thing.
It said al f u ex
I love using the wax.
By chance, do you ever go over towards Dayton/Springfield to play?
The bad thing about all those stickhandling drills is they force you to always be looking down at the puck. That is the most horrible and dangerous habit to have in the sport imo.
Yo ur so great I love your vids
You shuld try using different NHL players TJ's like Pasta and Benn for example
0:39 did he really just say Vapor QrEdge
I have seen a mini-Zamboni on a mini-practice rink.
I love wax howies smells good and performs well it helps me just stick handle better
Nasher I wish I could meet you
Nasher you the best
Yo nasher61 you should use howies wax I tested other ones but howies is the best
Using the same stick for each amount of wax would have been a straight comparison. The different sticks will change the feel/handling.
You should have used identical sticks to be completely scientific.
I love hockey and I'm goalie for my next game plus your the best hockey player I know better then Sidney Crosby
U should have a meet up some times I love your videos so much and I wanna meet up
Dude... first of all you need fresh TJs. You’re putting wax on tape that’s already been wet and then dried and used, definitely not getting optimal results for your video.
you could just say maybe
yep
Just a few things man..
How is this an accurate test when none of these sticks have fresh tape jobs?
Why are you shooting 5-8 feet away from the net?
Why the big curl and drag on the shot?
And why are all these kids saying you should be in the NHL?
There are pros and cons to wax. Not enough and the snow builds up too fast. Too much and you start to lose control of the puck because as you can see in your video every touch lifts the puck on its edge when you used the third stick.
Roller got you digging that heel in the ice haha
Should have used black tape
Why isn't he in the NHL?
This guy is the definition of head down hockey. If he played checking he would get absolutely killed
Nasher do you do this for a living?
Is that a public rink?
I did not use wax for one practise and it looked like I had a snowman on my blade
Howies is the only wax that works well
Idk maybe I should just go spend 3$ on wax instead of wasting 12 minutes watching a useless video that’s all preference based
You can use a candle too
Nasher*
Great vid 💪🏻
I use howies wax it is a plus you can tell its even there
Does grip tape work for the knob?
Barrdown I don’t think so I just have a knob on my Saturday stick I don’t put any kind of grip except the grip that’s on the stick
i tried yesterday at practice, my expierience was horrible, gathered snow instead of melting it, and no extra grip, less grip tbh
So...Different sticks, different wax amounts, different curves...How is this even a test?
is Griptape actually usefull?
what curve and flex is that Nasher?
Quinn Beyatu he said in one of his videos he likes a 75 flex with p28 or p92 curve. He likes th P28 curve more now
Whether you should use wax or not depends mostly on the ice surface you will be playing on. Colder ice doesn't stick to your blade at all.
First like and comment in 4 years
Wtf do you mean
You got three out of 10 with no wax and one out of 10 with the light wax and you got two out of 10 with a heavy wax
Nasher you shoot way too close you are practically in the crease every shot and your wind up is way too long
Next time have someone else wax them so you don’t know which ones have wax and which ones don’t
I don’t know about anyone else but I never use wax? Anyone else? I just never gotten into it
You Don’t Need Wax I Only Tape With Howies Black Tape
Wax is ment to deep the snow of ur stick
Why does the wax have lines in it and why do you buy white wax?
I always use the stuff
I put wax on before every game
What tape do you use? I noticed the tape job looks beat up but it’s not really ripped at all. I use renfrew and usually after one skate the tape will rip along the bottom of the blade even if I use wax/scrape it with a puck
NASHER! You should do a collaboration with Patel barber and coach jermey. THE BEST HOCKEY RUclipsRS. No offense TDI
who knew jason bateman would be in favor of stick wax after all?
I just say look up wen you,r making you,r weird wristshoot
I have a question, HOW DO YOU HIT BAR DOWN EVERY SHOT. Please make a tutorial on how to control you aim better.
You should play a roller hockey game with wax on your stick
Should have used new black tape to show the difference in wax
Well...I always used wax for the only reason to keep the melted ice from ruining the tape... With no wax the tape gets "water logged" it get heavy and the tape does not last as long and traction to the puck gets worse with wet tape... In the old days I used "friction tape" that has pitch tar in it and that stuff had good traction and was water-proof... Today's tapes are not the same... So the secret to make the tape last long is wax the tape the hold the blade over heat....torch, heat-gun or kitchen stove...this way you get the wax to warm up and it melts into the tape and basically impregnates the tape... If your looking to "cheat" with picking up the puck with the help of wax...then you buy the special surf wax specifically for cold water, since it stays sticky at lower temperatures.... The real secret sauce to use for wax is Deodorant stick...I found this technique when I forgot my wax and found a stick of MENNEN Deodorant in my shower bag...this works real well and the smell will distract your opponent in a face off ...LOL
It would be awesome if you did a video with Cam at the battery
