That aside, I need a new stick and was looking at the Bauer Vapor XX or Mission Z-1. I might possibly spring for an L-2 since you do get 2 blades with it but I'm hesistant to get basically a 1 peice stick converted to 2 peice.

Any recommendations?
One piece sticks are 2 piece sticks fused together anyway, you get the same performance with the ability to replace the blade which (imo) the weakest portion of OPS right now...

Try finding an tapered Inno shaft as a reference for the L-2, and of course the TPS R2 and Easton Synthesis are out there...

These things are tanks... My First Gen V110 snapped from a slash, but CCM has improved the durability 10 fold...

ya I liked the feel of a vector
I have just a vector two piece shaft but I like it with a nice si-core sakic blade in there

I also have the Bauer Vapor X two piece with a matching Jokinen blade(new ones are almost identical to sakic blades)

love em both and would reccomend either to anyone

Looking to get a new stick, not sure what I want to get though. Liked my Apolo and Si-core. Going to go out looking soon, and see if I can find any good deals around.
