Penalty Box | Hockey Stick Guides & Buying Advice by Twig
If you're a hockey player, you probably know that your stick flex is an important factor in your performance. But do you know how your stick flex changes as you cut down your stick to fit your height and preference? Here we explain the basics of stick flex when you cut your stick down.
Take a look here to see answers to the questions you are likely asking in your head right now. This is a compilation of the most common ones that come in to our mailbox.
Unless you're really in the hockey equipment loop, buying a hockey stick for your child can be a real headache. Are they a junior, youth, or intermediate size? What is flex? How big should it be?
Fortunately for you, we've attempted to make it a bit easier for you to select. So read on to get all the details of our guide.
Ever try finding an affordable high-end hockey stick that actually fits your 80 lb 10 year old or a child even smaller?
Did you know that hockey experts recommend using a stick with a flex less than half your body weight at all age & skill levels?
Are you aware that a hockey stick's flex increases by approximately 10 for every 2 inches you cut off the shaft?
We developed the Junior Twig to help you better fit your child with a high-end hockey stick and still keep some cash in your wallet.
In case you are new to the sport, the hockey stick is the sport’s equivalent to a baseball player’s bat, a golfer’s club, a bowler’s ball, etc. Selecting the right one is always of utmost importance. When you go on a scoring streak, you will be babying your stick and proclaiming its greatness to anyone willing to lend an ear. However, when you go through a scoring drought, if you don’t break down and smash it over the bench wall (which we do not encourage,) you will be trolling the pro shop and your teammate’s sticks looking for a replacement.
