Thanks!
I'll pop into Sportschek and get an idea of which curve I like. It's kinda hard to tell from their website
What's your favourite curve on your other sticks? Maybe I can help you there.

Something like the Bauer P92 or P88
Much appreciated!
I ended up buying that 64 inch Sher-Wood T120 True Touch 105 flex that was marked down for half price at SportsChek
If my buddy likes it, I'll gift it to him. If not, I'll just return it
It's an absolute beauty of a stick!
Kickpoint - A series is more mid-low. Xcore series has the kickpoint a bit higher; like a mid kickTRUE XC9 versus A6.0. Can someone give me a good explanation on how the sticks differ?
Hey AIREAYE, thanks for the info.
Since you use both sticks would you say you could feel the puck on your blade better when carrying it with the XC9?
Also, any chance you can compare the TRUE sticks to a Bauer 1N for me?
I find the XC9 has better puck feel but I have a quicker release with the A series.
I prefer the 1N over the True sticks TBH.
How would you compare puck feel between 1N and XC9?
I completely agree with these 2 statements.Having used all 3 sticks regularly, I can weigh in too. The 1N has a true mid-kick and will only shoot well if you place your hand correctly at the center of the sweet spot. The TRUE sticks give more freedom of movement for the bottom hand but don't shoot as hard at full power.

Anyone can give me a review of the CCM Ribcor Trigger 2? Looks like an amazing stick. It appears that CCM have upgraded their top of the line sticks to a higher grade of carbon fibers.
Coming from strictly Bauer sticks APX2 being my favorite and disappointed in all my sequential Vapor purchases. I am totally pumped on this twig. It is very close to the APX2. I have bought 3. Broke one (6 months 3 days per week) and now have 2. No chipping or nicks in currents. I usually just take wrist and snap shots but I find the Trigger 2 effective with one timers too. But ya, I can really smoke wrist shots with this thing and it has helped me to develop some decent pop in my snaps. The only thing Im not a fan of is trying to shelve backhanders. I have the McKinnon curve and can't do much on the backside. Passing is easy to be accurate and def need to keep a stiff lower hand for receiving.
If that's the only problem you have with the stick, that's great. It just means that you're using the wrong curve for you
Maybe but the MacKinnon (P40) is a pretty darn straight curve in comparison to most curves on the market.
