Junior Twig v1.0 - 30 Flex Youth/Junior Size 52" 100% Carbon Hockey Stick (Left)
Hockey experts recommend using a stick with a flex less than half your body weight at all age & skill levels.
A hockey stick flex increases by approximately 10 for every 2 inches you cut off the shaft.
That is why we worked with top engineers to develop a hockey stick with better fitting flexes and lengths for junior/youth players under 100 pounds. The Junior Twig promotes properly learning to flex, load, and shoot. We're confident you won't find a better performing and better fitting product for your player for the money anywhere.

How to Fit Your Child (It's really easy!)
To best fit to your child, there are two steps.
1. Start first with flex. Divide their weight by 2 and select the closest flex without going over.
Example: Target flex for a 54 pound player would be the closet to 27 without going over (The 20 Flex.)
2. Ensure the stick height on the chosen flex stick is adequate. Without skates on, experts recommend a stick that touches underneath the nose but no lower than bottom of the chin when stood upright, shaft perpendicular to the ground (See fitting guide.) If it's too short, go to the next flex/length up. If too long, consider the next size down or cutting down the shaft (the latter will increase the flex though.)
