Choosing the right hockey stick is one of the most important decisions a player can make. Here is a complete guide to flex rating, blade curve, and shaft shape.
Flex Rating
The flex rating tells you how stiff the stick is. A general rule: use a flex that is roughly half your body weight in pounds. Stiffer sticks are better for hard slapshots, while softer sticks help quick-release wrist shots.
Blade Curve
The blade curve affects puck control, shooting angle, and passing. A mid-curve is the most versatile choice for new players.
