NHL Players Using THIS Instead of Tape!? | Rezztek Review

To learn more and to purchase, head on over to:
www.rezzteknorthamerica.com/
Really cool to finally test a product I'd been hearing about for weeks from players and online.
It was fun testing out Rezztek and I hope I was able to answer all your questions!

No one gonna talk about the squirrel just chilling on the roof by the gutters lol

90$ for a 6 pack seems like a rip-off compared to some 5$ tape that'll tape up a few sticks

You can also use the tape with wax to prevent the tape from getting wet. Lasts 2-3 games or 5-6 SnP sessions.

[@STZ-Elite]

Thanks for showing the product. Also thanks for sending a video to my team about a year ago when we made it to states!! Love your vids!

[@JKERLZ]

Just buy a big roll of 4” non skid tape from Lowe’s, Home Depot , or Amazon and trace your blade then cut it out. Save one cut out or a cut a piece of cardboard out and use as a template and you can tape your stick 20-40 times for $15-$20.

[@kylecordaro859]

had bought rezztek a few months ago and was having an issue where it wouldnt stick to a brand new blade, reached out to customer service and they were excellent, sent me a new pack 2 days later. great product and great company

[@PavelBarber]

Awesome. You gotta press hard and roll well

[@dylanc6480]

The issue with a brand new blade is that there's probably release agent left from the molding process. I would imagine a decent clean with warm water and dish soap would help a lot with adhesion, whether it's the rezztek or regular old tape. Especially on first time applications.

[@batmancollects4491]

[@JL_sounds]

Can we just appreciate what a nice backyard rink setup this is?

[@beerleaguebumhockeyreviews]

Good to see you actually use it around your rink. Surprised you said the blade tape grips the puck more than the rez I found the opposite. Both are good for tricks but stick handling bizzare grips to much. Unfortunately in actual games it last mere hours as in a real game just like tape the odds of a skate or another stick taking a chunk off it is quick. The problem is tape is Pennies and this is not. It’s damaged quickly because it’s so thin which was its biggest surprise. Interested to see someone else test this and their opinion. Good video and loved the dive In you took. Also sick rink jealous

[@PavelBarber]

Blade tape is the name of the sticky tape you put on sticks it’s like rubber. You don’t find that one more grippy? Crazy haha.

[@beerleaguebumhockeyreviews]

@@PavelBarber the sand paper of the rez seems to get into the texture on the side of the puck easily. The blade tape is great for tricks since it’s rubber and using on the top of the puck but man that grippiness of the rez makes me lose the puck all game soon as I stick handle. Maybe it’s cause we are beer leaguers and the nhlers can play better lol. Anyway good video enjoy watching your stuff

[@sticksquid1503]

you should do durability test

[@Mrmhibbert]

How will the rezztek do with plastic inline hockey pucks?

[@roehockeycards]

Ours lasted 3 games before tearing and getting chewed up, crazy expensive for that use.

[@GZ_Js]

love your vids! and i’m actually impressed abt this

[@PavelBarber]

thanks for watching!

[@GZ_Js]

@@PavelBarber ofc!! tysm for replying to me i love your content

[@johnnyk4152]

Picked one up myself. And when i was messing around with friends, i felt like for roller it gripped the puck very well, i counted the times i could hit the michigan/lacrosse move. i was able to hit it more with rezztek in a row than i could with tape. Same technique. I do outdoor sport court, ice and indoor roller.

[@AnHourOfWolves]

The tape itself actually does protect my blade from skate-related scuffs. I wouldn't switch because the tape has saved me from having to replace my stick.

[@PavelBarber]

Skate scuffs? Those would be pretty rare and would actually be very difficult to know for sure if it helps.

[@AnHourOfWolves]

@@PavelBarber Ha, you're obviously not a D man fighting in the corners. I see skate slashes and cut tape after every game :D

[@puzzo5370]

@@AnHourOfWolves lmao yeah i just use tape and some wax and it does the job

[@darthollpheist1156]

@@puzzo5370 Yeah I'm a center and I've had plenty of times where you see your blade being stepped on and kicked when fighting for a puck. But he's a great player. So he knows what you're talking about. But I'm sure this is a sponsored video. They gave them to him to get a good review. Also, tape 100%, does protect the bottom of your blade. He doesn't have to pay for his stuff so he probably has tons of sticks and only uses them for a season or so. Guys that have to buy their sticks want to protect them. Ice isn't that smooth. It will rip up the bottom of your blade if you don't tape it. Want proof, just look at your tape after a few games. The bottom will be worn and ripped. NHL guys do often cut the bottom off their tape job. But they also don't pay for sticks and they get as many as they want, as often as they want. So unless you're rich, or in a serious hockey league, this is a huge waste of money. No disrespect to Barber. He's just doing his job.

[@PavelBarber]

@@darthollpheist1156 The amount your tape protects the bottom is probably dry minimal if it is. I’ve been leaving my heel of my blade without tape and the top half with tape for a couple years now and never notice a difference in damage to the bottom. And some of those sticks I have used a ton.

[@smokebomb69]

A little more pricey than I imagined

[@ryanv4775]

facts i wanted to get some for beer league but its half as much as my twig lmao

[@KyleSchwanz]

That ODR is so sick!!! Wish we could have those in Texas haha

[@AvsFan32]

Out of my price range, or I would have sincerely tried it. I love innovation.

[@mhicaoidh1]

Good video. The problem is the cost. Player steps on your blade, and you're replacing it. Tape with wax will give you the same result for a fraction of the cost.

[@dylancianci10]

0:49 anyone see the animal on the roof in the background

[@vincentstalenhag4113]

yeah

[@MXJEFF94]

I've got the Rextek and they feel great. I agree its an insane price (for sand paper w/ adhesive on the back), but the control is nice.

[@RK_Insanityy]

Bro just use tape and wax it up

[@vollhockeypucks2851]

Definitely looks like a good fit for Barbs... trick shots!

[@MiyamotoMusashi9]

Thanks for the review , i put this on my water bottle now the lid never squirts off

[@penguinguyx]

I got a double pack to try out. I think it was cheaper at LHS. I am hoping it will last a while. I'm tired of using tape. Saw someone say just put some wax on it. I might try that too.

[@shepkrents7042]

How do u do those tricks

[@IrishStoner]

Chara owns part of the company his sales pitch made me laugh at him. "Everything is improving becoming sturdier lasting longer" Ahhh I've seen games where composite sticks break by the half dozen per period. I played competitively up to 16 and have never seen a half dozen sticks broken in a season playoffs included

How much did they pay you

[@ikeyeet8312]

6 pairs- 60 ice sessions -$90, Tape 1 roll 5 tape jobs- 4 sessions each time- $4. $1.5 dollars for this per session, or .25 cents per for tape. Yah ill take the tape.

[@RK_Insanityy]

The only problem with these is that you’ll just eat through your blade in no time where as if you use tape you can run a strip down the underside to protect your blade

[@jeffcassar6036]

You could just do that and use rezztek. You don't go to the bottom with rezztek anyway.

[@RK_Insanityy]

@@jeffcassar6036 you’ll spend more on 1 piece of rez than 2 rolls of blade tape

[@ffryan]

Rezztek advertises, "Accuracy: 6% improvement, Energy: 5% improvement, Speed: 3% improvement". $35 for a double pack is too much considering this is all the improvement I'll get.

[@HushPuppy106]

NHL players cut bottom because they got 100 sticks atta time and got millions of dollars to spend on broken and cracked sticks💀💀

[@PavelBarber]

I thought so too, but I really don't think a thin layer of tape is protecting the bottom of the blade much if at all. You're not using it on concrete.

[@traaaaan]

I'm poor. I need to protect my stick, I play roller so it's way rougher with no tape.

[@PavelBarber]

I don't think tape is protecting the bottom much on the ice lol

[@Simonguitar]

I don't get the hype.... i know this kind of tape for many years, called blade tape. At least in germany, it's not really popular

[@darkslayer8297]

Looks cool but don't wanna break my stick lol

[@jaakkonykyri]

If you are using your stick on shooting pad, dek, street or shitty odr, ofc it's gonna wear on the bottom. If you use it on regular ice only like most active players during season, I see no effect on stick durability when doing this 🤦🏼🤦🏼

[@scunning100]

The price is ridiculous

[@guitarplayer30001]

interesting

[@guitarplayer30001]

the point about different stiks seems to miss an oppurtunity to èerhaps say that these probably should not be used on wood sticks. i guess composite blades to not break as easily

[@Dkingof]

Tape will never be replaced

[@PavelBarber]

Who said it needs to replace it? There's NHL players choosing this over tape. That says a lot

That's not a flex lol. Many things were around for many years, then something better came along. Look at wood sticks compared to the 2 piece composites vs what we have today. Technological advancements and we laugh at the old stuff. Not saying tape is not good, but saying its been around for 100 years like its impossible to make something better is laughable.
