    All depends on what you want!

    Do you play hockey?

    You need to get in touch with the shop at the rink!

    it would be more for playing at the back of the house. maybe abit of inline as well. reebok seems top pop up alot.

    i hold the top of the stick with my left hand if that makes any difference. I remember years ago sport shop even symths use too sell them.

    I have bought most of my gear from hockeyoffice.com. It is 20 euro shipping not matter how much stuff you buy.

    You need a right side stick if your left hand is at the top of the stick and your right hand down the shaft when playing the puck.

    Did you order a right side stick off them? Hockey Office are notorious for getting orders wrong. For instance, I have bought two pairs of skates off them on different occasions and ticked the box so that I don't get sent an alternative pair if my pair is out of stock. Yet both times they send an alternative pair, that is cheaper than what I wanted (and they say if they send you an alternative item it will be the same price or more expensive than what you want). Their prices are good in comparison to other online shops though.

    If you are afraid you'll be away leave a note for the delivery guy to leave it around the back of your house or somewhere semi hidden.

    Hockey Office arn't the best. I got all my gear off them when I rejoined the sport a few months back. Sent me a pair of gloves that had an obvious rip.

    The pain of it is is that they wont pay for your return postage.
    A shame you sent that stick back? I'm looking for a new leftie

    no i ordered the left one.. it wasn't even the same colour stick. it was a ccm one.

    if i know there was some one looking for one would of sold it to you.

    got one of the kids that come too house a nice one.wouldn't mind that one.

    he was so happy too get it.

    i was given 2 crosby reebok sticks by a friend who took them back from canada as a christmas presant. Last years stock, but it doesnt matter, they are fantastic. I dont think i could play withtout them.. very light, and pucks fly like lazer beams - litterally.
