Product Overview:

Mercian Evolution CKF35 Hockey Stick - Intermediate Composite Stick

The Mercian Evolution CKF35 is a 35% carbon pro-bend composite hockey stick, designed for junior players who want to deliver more power with their hit and slap skills. The 35% carbon provides stiffness, while the fibreglass offers touch, feel, and durability. The lightweight construction and higher balance point make skill execution easier for juniors, while the full-size head enhances hitting and slapping power. Nano polymer resin creates a flexible but stronger bond between composite layers, increasing stiffness and reducing the risk of de-lamination.

Key Features:

• High-Quality Carbon: Preferred carbon from Japan, Germany, Scotland, and South Africa provides stiffness but can be brittle. Combining carbon with fibreglass and Kevlar enhances strength and durability.
• Fibreglass Construction: Fine glass fibres combined into thicker fibres, dipped in resin, and laid out to create single directional sheets. These sheets are layered at different angles for multi-directional strength.
• High Friction Finish: The final layer of lacquer on the face of the stick is mixed with fine grains of silicon polymer to create a texture that stops the ball spinning on contact. These tiny rubber particles 'squash' on ball impact, providing a damping effect.
• Pro Bend: 23.5mm bend at 230mm from the head for enhanced stick turnover and hitting power.
• M-Gel Vibration Control: Silicon gel injected into the handle absorbs vibrations caused by power skills such as hitting and slapping, providing much more feel.
• Kevlar (Aramid) Durability: Enhances the strength and durability of the stick.
• Fibreglass Micro-Skeleton and Laminates: Forms a flexible base that absorbs energy, combined with carbon, Kevlar, and basalt for enhanced performance.
