And pretty high flex for a relatively small guy. 107 flex if im not wrong.
Looks like a 102:

I have seen 107 in the past
+1. extra stiff shaft/blade
curious about the height as well. i wonder if many players get their sticks made at the height they like them. like when you see pro stock sticks, is that the actual height the player uses or do they cut/add.
i saw a few kane sticks at Duke's a few weeks ago and they seemed retail bauer height.

I've wondered about that, too. Whenever you see locker room videos, players are always on the saw cutting their sticks down. Seems strange to order everything to their exact specs except for the height. Maybe they like the flexibility in being able to play around with a taller stick without adding plugs, who knows.

I tried out a Kane APX 2 in warmups once. At the height he cuts them at, I'm even more astonished at his skills with it. It felt like a steel girder in my hands. I have no clue how that guy does what he does with it.

I think that, at least with bauer, they just manufacture each stick at stock or + height, and always rates the flex at stock heigh Just keeps it more consistent and makes the person ordering adjust from there. I think easton is different but we still dont have a solid idea

Vapor sticks for instance have stiffer blades where the puck comes off the blade as quickly as possible. This mirrors the flex of the shaft and maximizes performance.
The only reason to mix and match blades would be for personal feel preferences.
Always looking for 15" four roll/nexus gloves

Mid kick + soft blade = max velocity, slowest release time
Mid kick + stiff blade = med velocity, med release time
Low kick + soft blade = med velocity, med release time
Low kick + stiff blade = min velocity, quickest release time
Is that roughly how it works?
Custom everything.

i wouldnt over think it that much. Youll never see a stiff blade on a mid kick or a soft blade on a low kick unless its custom ordered. They just work against each other. The the stiff blade or low kick will react before the mid kick or soft blade has loaded up, just not efficient.
The lag from the mid kick and soft blade loading up is what gets you the extra power, same thing with the low kick and stiff blades for quick release.
So it would be something like:
Mid kick + soft blade = max velocity, slowest release time
Mid kick + stiff blade = med velocity, med release time
Low kick + soft blade = med velocity, med release time
Low kick + stiff blade = min velocity, quickest release time
