Boiling a stick will not do much, you need direct heat, on the blade, usually with a propane blow trorch. I simply look for a stick with as much curve as I like and buy it.
Having "too much curve" makes it harder to receive a pass, or to shoot a backhand shot. The puck will just dribble off the end of the blade.
All good points. However they only apply to a wooden blade. You cannot reshape a carbon fiber blade without significantly weakening it or completely ruining it. As said, there are a lot of different curve patterns to choose from these days, so I suggest trying out a few of your buddies' sticks to see what pattern you like, and simply buy it.
correction..........u can curve a full fibre glass hockey stick....i have alot of them and ive dun it before and it makes a sweet curve.....so dont listen to whoever wrote that bull
The blade at the end of a stick is called a "Bayonet".
1.) Find a stick 2.) Find a blade 3.) carve your name into the stick with the assistance of the blade 4.) get a life
Yes you could saw off the blade of a one piece stick and then go to a store and put on a new blade
hey
The hockey stick is shaved with a blade. no--how do you shape the blade?--how do youn make the toe round and thin?
On the hockey stick, you have the shaft (the part you hold), and the blade (the part that touches the ice). In the blade, you have the Heel, which is the part connected to the shaft. Then you have the toe, which is the tip of the blade, or the end which does not connect to the shaft.
Regulations say you must tape the stick blade at least the width of the puck. and you should tape the butt end of the stick to have better grip.
That part of the stick is called the "blade"
Yeah Honestly you should know that alredy, who asks a stupid question like that!
yes
the curve from the shaft to the tip of the blade
Make a knob of balled up tape at the top and wrap the tape around the blade of the stick continuously til the blade is covered to your liking.
