Sean Reily is not a hockey guy.
But his son is a hockey son, a twist of fate that plunged Mr. Reily headfirst into the world of big gear for small people. That’s when the father of two noticed there was something not quite right about the way hockey sticks were being manufactured for the game’s youngest players.
“My son was playing with a youth stick, which is short, thin and good for little kids. But when we needed to move up to the next stick, a junior stick, it’s a big jump and we had to cut eight inches off the stick. Not realizing what I was doing, we sent him off on the ice for the next game and he couldn’t shoot, he couldn’t pass, he couldn’t do anything,” he recalls.

Flex, in hockey terms, refers to the degree to which the shaft of the stick will bend when pressure or force is applied. After they load the puck onto their stick, players need to be able to use the flex to move the puck forward and shoot it effectively.
More importantly, flex gives a stick something Mr. Reily refers to as “puck feel,” a qualitative touch that allows the stick to behave like an extension of a player’s body, increasing precision and releasing the puck with greater speed, spin, and accuracy.
