Intro & New Features
Step up your game with the Ribcor 96K Hockey Stick. Its low kick-point enhances your shot release speed, and the ergonomic “E” geometry ensures smooth energy transfer for fast shots. The Ascent 2 Blade, with its optimized stiffness from a soft heel to a stiff toe, provides excellent puck feel and release quickness.
Stick Profile
The stick features an optimized low kick point, which is designed to improve your performance. As a result, the stick flexes downward and toward the blade. The stick’s capacity to swiftly store and release energy during a shot is improved by this design. The energy contained in the lower shaft of the stick is quickly released at the low kick point when a player loads it by flexing it. Fast-paced action, close-range shots, and quick snapshots are all made possible by the quick and powerful shot release that this produces.
Shaft Construction
This stick features an ergonomic “E” geometry in the shaft shape. It is designed to offer a flawless energy transfer, optimizing the speed of release for your shots. Reinforced by the Sigma STP spread tow shaft, this provides the stick with a more lighter feel and more balance, while still being extremely durable.
Blade Construction
The Ascent 2 blade with Peel-Ply, which is a little softer and has some additional rigidity around the heel, comes fitted with the 96K. For sticks with low kick points, such as those in the Ribcor family, blades with this build work well since they allow for a little whippier stick while still providing greater control over the stick. For further durability, C6 carbon has also been weaved into the blade.
Grip
The Ribcor 96K uses a soft gloss grip, which is a common choice for most hockey sticks since it allows for a consistent and firm hold throughout the entire shaft.
Blade Patterns, Flex & Stick Length
The Ribcor 96K Senior Hockey Stick is available in the following blade patterns: P29 and P28.
P29 is the best blade pattern for all-around play, with a mid-curve style. It is great at handling the puck in small spaces, including face-offs. This curve may suffer a little bit on the backhand. Due to its balanced design, this pattern can be described as the perfect beginner blade.
P28 is a much more aggressive stick pattern to complement the low kick point. Used often by elite players, this blade curve specializes in quick and accurate shots, but it can be a bit difficult to get used to since it also very good at raising the puck.
