Blind performance hockey stick test - Big Manufacturer vs New Small Brand

[@elholandesbogota1270]

You should hand them two exactly the same sticks coverd up, but telling them they are two different ones. Lets see how that mental game plays out!

[@HockeyTutorialOfficial]

That’s a funny idea 🤣😂 lets make it happen!

[@canojr3632]

Easy there Satan.

[@HockeyTutorialOfficial]

Questions is... which sticks?

[@bensedg04]

Hockey Tutorial get 2 Bauer sticks and tell them that 1 is a warrior and 1 is a small brand.

[@stpbasss3773]

Yes the placebo effect, or use top spec sticks and tell them they are budget sticks or vise versa lol.

[@aaronmaxim]

The tape could mess with the performance a little. Next time spray paint em black. Let them tape the blade

[@HockeyTutorialOfficial]

Barely added weight to the stick (roughly 68grams and this includes the tape normally on your stick blade and Buttend). Painting them isn’t a good idea. It ruins the stick, removes the grip coating (which means adding paint and more tape for grip) paint comes off in your gloves and lots of other issues including multiple layers of paint required to totally hide branding and logos. It’s also difficult to find out how much weight you are adding with paint. With the tape, we could weigh it and remove the cover up at the end for the big reveal. This was a better option.

[@aaronmaxim]

@@HockeyTutorialOfficial they're both fine options. Maybe the tape could have possibly messed with the kick point / flexibility little bit right? The tape grip is different from the grip on the stick right? You could have used both options but for the sake of what you're doing and the reveal the tape is fine. Just saying adding anything to a stick could make some sort of difference not significant enough for the sake of the video. Easiest answer " yes that's another possible way"

[@maxthompson6932]

Gotta agree, the warrior is only 410g in itself

[@samhull4065]

@@HockeyTutorialOfficial if you can feel the difference in weight with just nob and blade tape then the entire stick being tapped is going to be a major difference in the feel. Interested to see another one with some minimal painting to cover the logos and see if there is a difference in reaction.

[@leniruklic8832]

@@HockeyTutorialOfficial 68 grams is a lot when it comes to a sticks weight

[@mrdursons]

Do a ccm, Bauer and no name brand but tell them its a warrior or something. That way the don't even know it's not a name brand

[@lobbytubes]

Love this type of video! Next time I might suggest spray painting them so to not add so much weight:)

[@kaic9712]

Lobby 91 yea that’s what I was thinking

[@HockeyTutorialOfficial]

Do it with PAMA, that would be interesting...

[@timotei-hn1xd]

My friend have PAMA stick. And acutally they are made in Finland right in my small town. That's my biggiest flex😂

[@nahay26]

You should do a thin layer of plasti dip instead of the tape, with the full tape job your adding almost 20% additional weight to the stick, and the plasti will peel off at the end as well

[@kylefletcher7561]

Do a ccm ribcore trigger 2 vs Bauer nexus 2N pro

[@NateNakao]

This was a great idea! I'd be interested to see the CCM Trigger 3D vs a comparable PAMA stick.

[@jaakkonykyri]

Nate Nakao they dont have low kick models

[@HockeyTutorialOfficial]

So many questions around PAMA. Working on the video.

[@jaakkonykyri]

Hockey Tutorial yes nice

[@jaakkonykyri]

When is PAMA video coming? I really dont want to get one before someone reviews it for Me...

[@RasmusVibe]

This is a great idea. Blind testing equipment is great fun. If you could find a way to do it with skates that would be awesome! But definitely do this again with sticks as well. 3 or 4 sticks next time and have each player sort them after their liking as well as guessing which is which.

[@HockeyTutorialOfficial]

We're working on another blind test as we speak! This was a lot of fun to film and edit.

[@theminnow6040]

Could you blind test a Bauer vapor 1x be a Easton synergy htx

[@wheelee1920]

If u put a long strip on tape vertically down the shaft you’ll use way less tape so it’s lighter and you still can’t see what it is

[@stpbasss3773]

Still the same surface area your covering, no matter how you do you tape it doesn't change the square footage your covering, use your brain lmao.

[@hawk12983]

@@stpbasss3773 no because they overlap with standard tape jobs so likely using more tape that way.

True

[@aaronmaxim]

@@lynnlahm50 I said same thing. Youre correct too. I live the " how much weight the paint would be". Less than the tape. Tape may effect the flex and even change three grip n feel. Both ways have benefits but you're not wrong man

[@tylermelendez-duke2206]

It’s funny to see how brits talk about hockey. Also no offence but they’re not that good, they true do these skills to look cool but let’s be honest this is what 10 year olds do, they’re stick handling and skating (in all fairness they weren’t trying to show off skating speed) was painfully slow. The one thing I like about they’re play is NO ONE uses the back handed which is a great shot for quick elevation and unpredictably. I always used my backhand cause my slap shot is shit and my wrister until recently also sucked

[@joeylucius5507]

2s Pro vs 2N Pro

[@joshuahalsell5152]

I would like to see the Hockey Players Club (www.hockeyplayersclub.com) XV3 vs Bauer Nexus 1N (or 2N) sticks, the claim is that HPC's sticks are made in the same factories as the "big name" manufacturers, also HPC's is mid kick which would put it in the Nexus realm

[@ohainickify]

Joshua Halsell HPC has lied about the specs on their sticks and are NOT the same as “top tier elite level sticks” as they claim for half the price - i’ve actually caught them photoshopping their ads showing 18k carbon blades while when you go to purchase they actually are a less durable/heavier 3k/6k carbon weave and at the price you pay you are actually getting the same if not worse product than the big name retailers at that price point. It’s all marketing gimmicks - So far I believe there are only a few actual “small” brands that use the same specs as what you would get in a $300 stick - and the main thing to look for is 18k carbon (the big checkerboard squares you’ll see on such as Bauer sticks). As you go up in quality and durability of the carbon weave the squares get bigger. The cheapest sticks don’t even have a weave because they are mostly graphite/fiberglass blend, then you’ll get tiny square weaves with 3k, and then bigger and bigger and so forth with 6k, 8k, 12k, all the way up until 18k which is the highest ANY company has ever used. Nobody has ever gone higher than 18k. HPC is a fraud and a rip off for the quality at the price, and as of this so far I believe there are probably less than 5 companies that use 18k, two I know for sure absolute are Plainville Hockey out of Pennsylvania that make complete blank sticks with no graphics and the new No Name Hockey 2019 models have been shown to actually use top tier specs - everyone else (All Black, PAMA, Panther, etc) does not specify what kind of carbon and what quality they use (because they use inferior products on purpose but market them as better) and they do this for a reason. As of right now the Panther stick - Senior is $200. I can buy a Bauer Supreme 1S Senior for $170 and I guarantee the two sticks will not be the same and you’re getting ripped off by these “marketing gurus” trying to make money off the fact that you don’t understand how hockey stick manufacturing works.
