Great stick, expensive except during customer appreciation, blade is alright

I personally love the graphic for this stick. The clear blue coating near the middle of the shaft looks amazing especially in sunlight when training outside shooting pucks. The stick itself is also very good. The pop is crisp, the wrist shots and snap shots are on point. I typically use a P28 due to the lower lie on a bauer stick, but since true had the TC2.5, I went with that and it is so much better than the P28. I can still have the consistent snap shots and wrist shots that I have with the lower lie stick. My backhands have improved slightly due to the TC2.5 having less of a curve then the P28. Not sure if it is completely the curve tho. I usually use a bauer 77 flex so I got a 75 flex True stick but the sticks actually run a bit shorter, like 1-2 inches shorter. So I cut it down less and the stick is a bit more flexible than I usually prefer. As a result, I can't take slap shots too well without the stick bending a lot and making it feel like I'm going to snap the twig on my next clapper. I don't take too many slap shots anyway so I don't mind too much but it does still stink being hesitant to take clappers. If I had the money, I'd try the 85 flex to find the one that fits me better. I have heard that Trues seem to feel more flexible than what they're rated for. The difference in flex is a minor complaint, its mostly because I'm used to bauer using 77 flex and I cuz it down to where it becomes about an 80-82. The blade of the twig is good, but not great. I like a stiff blade for shooting which the ax9 has. Coming from top of the line bauer twigs, the blade feel is definitely lacking. The blade is good, don't get me wrong, I'm just being very picky. It doesn't have the same feel as a bauer top line twig. Just to give an idea, my favorite bauer twigs were the original 1x and the original 1s, I loved the blades on those twigs and the true ax9 can't compare. It almost doesn't provide a dampened, soft feel when catching hard passes and kinda feels hollow and too stiff when stickhandling. Maybe its a result of the foam inside the blade or not having the resin stuff that bauer uses. This is my only major complaint. I bought the stick during the customer appreciation, the only reason I bought it. I usually never buy sticks full priced and even the $50 wasn't that much of an incentive. I bought twigs with a friend and we ended up going over the $500 mark which gave us a $75 discount per stick which is way more worth it. I can't account for durability. I've only used it for a month at the time of writing this. I usually stick with bauer twigs since I've used them since I was little and I know what I'm getting out of them. Was very hesitant to try true because of blade durability issues so we'll have to see if it lasts. I play club college hockey so competitive but not really that intense.

Awesome Product

I have these on all of my hockey sticks. The only trouble I have ever had was with the first one, learning how to install the product as it was a bit tricky. Now after doing 10 of them if you use a bit of ( Non Dawn Soap) Soapy water and a hockey glove it twists on with ease. Like I said I have this product on all of my sticks.

Light and goodlooking helmet, but need to try before keeping it.

Very light and good-looking helmet. But fits not too good. When it's dry and you are trying to put it on, it feels very hard and hard to fit. It also crushes when you put it on. After you play a little in it, it begins to adjust to the shape of your head, the foam shrinks and begins to dangle on your head. It also seemed to me very deep, sits deep on the forehead and low on the back of the head, which is not very comfortable. But these are my personal feelings.

Love it!

I have never liked cages but I also do not want to risk serious injuries to my face so I wore one. This mask is ideal because you get plenty of air flow on the ice. If you keep your helmet in a bag within your hockey bag and keep a microfiber towel on the bench it will not scratch at all. If you use any anti fog spray on the visor it will prevent almost all fogginess. Sure, when you are on the bench it can steam up a bit. Honestly, you do not even need to wipe it down then because as soon as you hit the ice it will clear up. Awesome mask, would recommend and will buy again if/when this one wears out!

Best gloves I've ever used

Hands down the best gloves I've ever used. They have a broken in feeling as soon as you put them on. Definitely recommend these gloves to anyone of any level.

Great, big, comfortable bag

I am using this bag for about a month. Great, big, comfortable bag, has lots of pockets. Before it, I had a 40' bag, but narrow, and I had to carefully put things in a certain order and some items - one in one. This one allows me to take off and throw things in a bag at random. Lots of pockets allow you to store things in an orderly way in your bag. Good style and quality. Comfortable handles and straps for loading and carrying. Long handles allow you to easily throw over the shoulder with one hand, passing the elbow inward. In my opinion, it has some cons, but it depends: Big bag, not all cars trunk available for this size, it's heavy if you plan to carry it for a while, price. But if you can afford it - I definitely recommend it!

Nice jacket for Coaches

I love using this jacket during practice. It is very light but is perfect when moving around on the ice. I even wear it during games with a hooded sweatshirt underneath. Hood on the jacket is kind of useless and bulky when stored, so I cut it out and enjoy it much more now.

Great jackets at great price

We purchased 6 total of these jacket in numerous colors and sizes. Cant go wrong for the price. Took them in to our local embroidery shop and got them customized with team logo and name. Could not find anything cheaper anywhere else. Love the quality and fit as well.

This is the hockey coaches whistle

This is the most convenient whistle out there for a hockey coach. Straps right to your glove so you don't have to worry about something dangling around your neck. Only complaint I have is that the whistle would fall out of the holder. So, I put a 2 piece of tape around that part and haven't had an issue since. Also has a deeper sound than most whistles on the market, which, makes it a little less painful on the ears.
