Louisville X-1 with the Tucker curve is really nice. I personally like a big heel curve, like the Jovanovski or Linden (Bauer) <p></p><i></i>

hull curve baby, christian blade, old school heel curve. that was unbelievable. when that stopped being carried around here, i switched to the sakic curve, which is my favorite as of now. i have recchi on my vector since that is the closest ccm makes to the sakic, and my synergies broke too easily, the ideal stick would be the feel of an m-1, that would last as long as a vector, and have a sakic curve. cant beat that. <p></p><i></i>

iginla(easton) or jagr(koho) or recchi(ccm) or lindros(bauer) are the best. I like the thornton(ccm) too. <p></p><i></i>

gaborik on the m-1 best stick I've ever used. It has the best feal of any stick I've tried, but I went through 12 of them this year, they always break in the same spot. <p></p><i></i>
12?

Clark Curve

The Clark curve in really nice, little less open at the toe than the sakic. Closest thing to it in a one-piece is in the P71 curve on the XX. <p></p><i></i>

im not gonna say who i am, so u can just keep guessing. its better most of the time to not know who people are, that way you aren't partial to any opinions and have the same ideas on any topics, so i'll leave it at that. and i think that a kaberle is a little more of a heel curve than a sakic, which i wasn't too happy with. m-1's definitely have the best feel, like i said earlier, but they break way too easily. both of mine broke within 2 weeks of purchase, but they are nice while they last, i'd like to try the XX, i think that'd be interesting. over all they are all the same, except the vector which is the only TRUE one-piece stick, other than wood sticks of course. give me a sakic any day, thats the way to go. <p></p><i></i>
best feel in a stick

i would say that the best feel ive ever had was in the bauer vapor XX. i use the synergy mostly, but recently switched to the synthesis which i like the same if not more than the synergy and this way i dont have to pay $160 every time i break a blade. im thinking of switching to the ccm vector with a stuart curve though. anyone know of the easton stealth coming out, that looks really awesome but i dont feel like paying $200 for a hockeystick. <p></p><i></i>

i have a rafaski curve on my m-1 and i had a recchi curve on my vector, but that broke. wood sticks are now the way to go fella's, they cost lesss and some never break. <p></p><i></i>

It whatever you prefer, there is no best, this thread was started to see what people liked and now people are turning it into a "A is the best curve and B is the best stick"-- its just a stupid thing to argue(somewhat) over.... <p></p><i></i>

i didnt see any arguing. I thought people were just saying what they liked best. My yzerman synergy lasted me a long time (more than a year) and I really liked that. The blade broke last year and i just put in a focus flex yzerman in the other end. That even had a better feel than the original stick. But that broke in my last game of the year. <p></p><i></i>

hey, i think i might have an idea who u are, if u say u recently played in virginia. and i believe one of those 2 m-1's u broke might possibly have been over the glass in a shinny game. and yes, kaberle is a little more of a heel than sakic, but it is way closer than the recchi is to it <p></p><i></i>

how is the feal of the synergy compared to the m-1, because I've been using m-1's the whole year and broke too often but I liked the feal too much to switch. <p></p><i></i>
