Expert thoughts

Hugo Falk (@hugofgfloorball) spoke about this stick and blade before:

“Carbskin is one of the lightest sticks on the market at around 190g as well. The way the carbon fibre has been woven in Carbskin is different from other 100% carbon fibre shafts. Carbskin has a better kickback in your shots, meaning that when the shaft is pushed down towards the floor it’ll kick back to its original straight position quicker than other carbon fibre shafts so you’ll get a harder kick/slingshot effect from Carbskin.

Epic is a phenomenal shooting blade given its diversity in dribbling and passing as well. Especially in featherlight, it’s a bit softer for better technique but still solid enough for good shots.”
