Good insight man!
I'm somewhat particular about the curve, but other than that I can use pretty much anything you put in my hands. The only issue is that my shot may not make it to the net. I love how the Ribcors have the "loading zone" marked on the stick. You can really feel the difference an inch above or below that area.



It takes all the guesswork out of it.

Will do man.
I'm heading to the hockey shop to get my goalie skates done for tonight's game, and will have 20 min to kill.
