Adrenalin Sports in Calgary says they're getting 12 of these and they are calling it the Vapor Advanced Series stick...

 

I've heard the same. Each retailer gets 12. 6 LH 6 RH.

 

Also heard it's weighing in around 350 grams. Which would put it significantly lighter than the BGP2B build.

Probably going to be hard to ever find your favorite curve then unless you’re first in the doors on the 27th. Their newest ad says 65 NHL players have secretly made the switch to this stick so far too

Let's see if it looks any good, or if it looks like the Nexus 8000 LE stick but with neon green instead of blue.

It was brought to my attention by a fellow 2k’er. But doesn’t the advertisement look an awful lot like a warrior alpha

I don’t get the tactic on the marketing though, if it’s really good it’s just gonna become common technology anyways. Why pay those types of premiums. Unless money bursting out of your pockets is an issue

Looking for BIOSTEEL jersey made by UA or Adidas.

Looking for Bauer Pro defender elbows size Large

Because parents will pay whatever it takes for their kids equipment in order to give them an "advantage", all the while NHL guys like Patty M and Buff still use 2 piece sticks while others are using 10 year old skate and some stick technology. It's all about sales

They release the 1X Lite and right after comes a $400+ limited stick. I get it, they’re trying to make money and marketing is part of that but damn when is enough going to be enough for a while. $300.00 for a stick... I use top of the line sticks, some pro Stock and some retail but I don’t pay full price for them. For me and maybe it’s because I was the kid with the hand me down stuff playing with on teams with other kids that had all the latest and greatest from the rich town... this just makes Bauer less likeable for me I guess. Go into the Bauer store in Burlington, MA on a Saturday morning and watch these kids who can barely shoot the puck properly while the parents are shelling out $200-300 for sticks like it’s nothing. Money money money money money.

There's a chance that won't be for a few years if for example the materials they're using are super expensive.

it's like a concept car at this point. and I hope to god 400 dollar sticks don't become the norm
