The Best Hockey Sticks by Bauer

William Meeks
Bauer One90 Stick

The One90 is the premier stick in Bauer's Supreme stick line. The One90 is used in many professional and amateur games every year. With a heavy slap-shot the One 90 is built for powerful players and powerful shots. The one-piece design gives it amazing durability. More so than other Bauer sticks it is carefully crafted to hold strong against heavy torque. An unflappable low-mid flex and a .520 power taper makes the puck slam into the hole every time. The double-concave design shaft design improves grip, keeping the stick firmly in the player's hands. If you need to add some 'oomph' to your game the Bauer One90 will provide it (and then some).

Bauer Vapor Hockey Sticks

While not as popular as the One90, the Vapor still commands a loyal following. Not nearly as articulate as other Bauer sticks, the Bauer Vapor XX is a good basic stick for intermediate players. It has a very simple design, but that doesn't mean it's not carefully crafted. It comes in a variety of cool shades, and can look mighty mean coming down the ice. While not as popular as the One90, the Vapor still commands a loyal following. One of the stick's most advanced features is the use of the popular "Lindros curve," a slight mid-curve that allows for better back-hand and fore-hand control. It also sports a shaft with a solid carbon-fiber construction which gives it an improved balance point compared to similar sticks. The shaft is expertly molded in a double-concave shape, giving it improved strength. Finally the blade sports an innovative air-foil design. This is one of the best Bauer sticks for those with high taste and low funds.

Bauer Endure Hockey Stick

The Bauer Endure stick is a sturdy stick, listed twenty-three percent more durable in impact testing as compared to leading competitors. Strong materials enforce key areas of impact, ensuring the stick will last more than a few games. A lightweight alloy mesh protects the sticks from hostile slashes. The Endure's double-concave sidewalls maximize leverage, guaranteeing a sensitive touch and superior handling. It has a twenty-inch taper, which concentrates the maximum energy down through the lower shaft. This ensures the blade responds quickly to any movements. In addition, the blade is also split into two sections: low-density foam up top for better balance, and high-density foam down below protects the blade from nicks and breakage. The Endure is one of the priciest Bauer sticks, but a stick of this quality is worth it.
