For those of you claiming a “minor concussion” — doctors cannot diagnose such a thing. Basically, you have a major concussion OR the POSSIBILITY of a minor concussion. There is no XRAY, CT Scan or MRI that diagnoses a “minor concussion”.

Kevin is right, if your sticks are breaking within weeks of getting them there are a few different reasons. I would say 2% of sticks are bad from the factory, 10% of the sticks that break are the wrong flex, 20% break because your shot is bad and your hitting the ice way to far behind the puck. 30% comes from abuse of your own stick, and 38% comes from someone hacking at the stick and it breaks when you shoot. Most aren’t designed to take a direct blow from the side. Any stick will break if you hit them right. Top of the line sticks do break easier than cheaper composite sticks and it is very important to get the right flex. As far as this the S17 goes, I think it is no doubt one of the best sticks ever made. I have demoed it along with an S11, Bauer One95, and a few others and this stick is simply amazing. I have worked in a proshop for about 4 years now and have access to a Rapid Shot for stick testing. Check it out, Rapidshot.com
