Taking too long! I will post once I get them. I agree. All black looks good for longer, in my opinion. Especially the nylon material. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Welcome fellow "Foam Core Till I Die" brother. My CR1 I've had since November is still holding up very well. It's dinged and scratched up to hell, but it's durability and performance isn't affected. Just doesn't look as pretty. Still haven't even touched my backup yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I too have been a steadfast "Foam Core Guy"... but already have plans to pick up a couple 25" Mrazek CR1s once it gets closer to me getting back on the ice. REALLY want to do a custom 3 pack... but can't see spending an extra $100 USD on top of an already expensive stick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's like getting a custom coloured jock or C/A. No one except you will ever care about it. Plus, the Silver on Black looks good by default anyways.

I'm in the same boat... bought a new gym membership for when I can actually work out again and not just do rehab "exercises." At this point I'm allowed on a stationary bike... but in order to avoid stress on my hip I have to have seat up so high it cramps the 'ole wedding tackle. Being on the IR sucks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still haven't even touched my backup yet. I still use my Swagger warmup stick for warmups. Helps keep excessive wear from warmups from prematurely wearing the CR1(though I always do this, I always have a stick designated for warmups to help my game sticks last longer). Plus going from the slightly heavier Swagger foam core to the slightly lighter composite makes the composite feel a little lighter than it probably is. And it is only a slight difference, the Swagger sticks are pretty damn light for a foam core stick. 51 minutes ago, coopaloop1234 said: Yea, I've never found getting custom sticks to be worth it.

Silver and black doesn't match my gear at all but it matches my team's jersey perfectly, especially with the green stripes are the top of the paddle. I also do not notice any significant vibration coming from the stick so idk what IBfreely's problem was. He was just a big baby bitch. If I can sell any of my other two new spare Swaggers I will definitely buy another CR1. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure if that's because it was me just getting used to composites or if the Vibexx gel stuff gets better with more use? Not sure. Either way, I have zero issues with my stick and am going to be hard pressed to go back to foam cores. It's just too bad they're so expensive.

I notice no difference in vibration going from warmups with the Swagger to game situations with the CR1. The only difference, other than weight, is the sound.

Yeah... it will certainly show wear and sweat much more than a black unit. Honestly though, I had a Vaughn Epic 8000 for 5-6 years (i think) before picking up the CCM Premier and while it was by no means pristine... it wasn't terrible either. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
