There is a reason to move away from wood, wood doesn't last.
This guy will love a composite as it pertains to lasting much much longer than wood from slapshots and blade damage.
I used wood for 35 years and spend way way less money now on composites since they last so long.
I also recommend not using ultra light expensive sticks and believe them to be junk that breaks more easily than the lesser priced composites.
One still needs a quality composite however as far as having feel. I hate seeing a new composite user using a cheapie composite since he isn't getting a good product to ween himself away from wood with.
The X40 is a decent stick for this guy i agree with you here.
No offense to the OP, but wood would last a lot longer if he had proper technique. Then he probably wouldn't even be making this thread. But that's beside the point.
The ultra light composites probably feel more frail but depending on the material there is a good chance they are stronger than most cheap ones. However the OP also said he likes the weight of a woodie so I doubt he'll go buy a Crazy Light any time soon.
