I love my Nexus1000 and have a 1N P92 Lie 5 on order. Can't wait to try that stick out.
The Nexus 1000 is a really cool stick too. I enjoyed shooting my buddy's 1000 (the brother of the 1S guy). He is using a pro return shaft with a P02 blade; the Kesler. It's a square toe with a big heel curve.



I liked the toe when I used it, and the heel kick sent every shot about 18" off the ice. It's too bad that this is an impossible blade to find.


The 1S stuff is incredibly expensive. The sticks are on for $319 at the hockey shop right now. That's about $20 more than the top end sticks usually go for.

I guess when you're spending $300, whats another $20?

Imho, get the highest end stick you can. If you can find a pro return, or last year's hot twig, go for it. I tried the One50, RBK 24k, and the like. They're heavy and they don't come close to the feel that the high end sticks have.

I lent a buddy my Easton HTX for a skate last week. He was using an old Easton that weighed a ton. After the skate he texted me from the hockey shop. He was sold on the high end stick in one skate
