Does anyone know if the Ultrasonic stick is available in a 102? All I have seen online is 87 being the stiffest. Is the 102 flex a special order only?

I think 102 was removed.

Yep it was. Just got an email back from Bauer saying that starting with this Supreme launch, going forward across their stick lines they will not be offering a 102 flex at retail on anything. Only through their MyBauer custom program.
I get that flexes are trending down, but for a guy like myself (6'2" 260lbs), I need a stiffer flex. I've tried the whippy sticks and it just doesn't feel comfortable to me at all. If they didn't want to stock them on the shelves, I get that, but it should still be maybe a special order only option? Like I know my LHS for the longest time would not order in any 102s for their inventory, but they would do a direct order for anyone who wanted that option.
Oh well. This is just more incentive to leave Bauer behind and stick to CCM/Warrior.

Off topic a bit. Anyone has any comments about the FastCore blade on the stick?

I doubt I'll ever buy another Bauer stick. CCM's been killing the game for years, so many things push me back every time.

I agree. I have an FT3 Pro stick that I was finally able to try out last night. A friend of mine works at a local arena and invited some of us for a late night skate (5 skates total, just a shoot around). I was very very impressed with this stick. I liked the first gen Jetspeed, but thought the FT2 was a dud. This is a really nice twig, and it's a 95 flex

Crazy to think 100 was the standard back in the day.
I remember the OG Synergy first released only in 100 flex at retail then a year or so later they rolled out 85-75-50.
