I did this to my stick and it’s seriously a game changer. I never liked the trigger grip in the first place so this allows me to grab it naturally. Thanks a bunch
@@trav4oilers i can't tell if you're kidding or not. but it's this liquid that becomes a hardened material and will fuse to the material in the stick creating a clear coat over the shaved areas. it will add durability but just takes about a few hours to harden fully
Epoxy resin is the glue that holds a stick together. It is a liquid that hardens into a plastic by a chemical reaction called curing. The resulting plastic is called epoxy and has many desirable properties such as a high strength to weight ratio, high adhesion, water resistance, heat resistance, and chemical resistance. There are many different epoxy resins all having different properties. Epoxy resins are chosen for specific applications based on their properties. If an epoxy resin with the characteristics to perform a task does not exist then an epoxy with those characteristics can be designed and created. Epoxy is widely used and has many applications including household, aerospace, marine vessels, electronics, and infrastructure.
I happen to have a Bobrovsky Pro Return foam core stick that was my backup. My main stick finally broke so I started using the Bob stick. First game with the stick I made a ton of lower blocker shots, which I usually have the most trouble with.
How could anybody hate you? (I mean besides the company reps that you tend to piss off, with your HONEST opinion of your experience with them) I love you, and am extremely grateful for all the FREE advice you provide, thank you very much sir. Oh, did you hear about the sloth that got mugged by two turtles? Yeah, when the cops arrived they asked the sloth what happened. The sloth said "I don't know, it happened so fast" Have a great day💘
hahaha great joke man. Thats the trade off, you want the companies to bad mouth you for being an asshole or the people for not being faithful and honest. You know which side I picked
Freakin love this Bob video! I'll have to try this on my old stick to see how I like the grip. When I get real low like Bob I feel like it moves my blocker up, and as stated in the video, it's awkward. I think doing this would be a little more agile.
Interesting video. I'm short but I was playing with a 26" paddle, so I see how you can close up the gap under your blocker-side arm with a shorter paddle. Never really thought about playing with a short-paddle stick thinking more paddle equals more coverage.
2:07...Well that sure is an interesting way to trace a template, not lining it up at all with the shaft. Seriously what's the point of even doing a template if you're not going to align it to the stick and trace along it???
If I’m a 5’10 guy currently with a 26 inch paddle, what would be a better paddle length to go to ? I’m realizing it’s way too long for me . I might just get your buddy to cut it down for me
Dude UA-cam is changing the algorithm all the time. I have no idea why other than they do what they do. Doing 3 videos a week rn but will likely change soon
@@trav4oilers I'm a smaller goalie, 5 foot 7, and I have to have a high stance, but, with a 22.5 inch paddle, I would have to get in a deeper crouch, don't you think for a smaller goalie high blocker save would be harder or easier?
I know your have explained why he shaves his stick but I still don’t understand why he would do that because would you not like to have a full stick the whole way but other then that trav it was a great video like always can’t wait to see you in next one bro

This is EXACTLY what I expected to see when I clicked on this video lol
The new CCM Eflex 5.9 is shaved like this off the shelf.
On you're advise I've gone to shaving my sticks and can't believe how comfortable it feels, great tip Travs. Thank you
So I am right about it and not crazy? lol good to know

Anytime alex, thanks for watching and trusting me :)
What kind of website where you watched how different goalkeepers had their clubs cut off?
No website, just here!
Thanks for the shave job on the CCM Axis pro. It definitely helps.
Thanks for buy-in the stick off me man!
You should use an epoxy resin after shaving to strengthen the area you cut. This will help prevent premature breakdown.
I was thinking the same thing. Especially after cutting the toe of the blade
Is that like Glue or?

its game changing man!
I have my first game in 2 years on the 19th yay
Congratulations
Thanks man
Congrats
goodluckt o you buddy
Thank you all
just remember one thing - cutting your stick like Bobrovskiy doesn't make you play like Bobrovskiy.
Never said I was like Bob, I like him as a goalie but I saw some function and purpose behind this
@@trav4oilers It was said in general, not for you personally
The way he’s playing this season, as a Panthers fan, I dont want to play like him
@@pachho808what about now
Damnit, now you tell me! I already changed my name to Bob
Thanks for the tip Trav. Peace!
Hope it helps you out Pete. Chat soon brother
Any advice you can lend for tryouts?
Gotta be consistent, stop more pucks than the rest and dominate / produce results. Rest is up in the air my friend
@@trav4oilers changed my mind. $275 audition fee. They are offering food however.

More paddle does equal more coverage but where do you want it? I prioritize 6 hole, depends who you ask
Very nice i do like how it gets that blocker lower :)
if thats what you want, this is what you need buddy
1:35 can someone share these info with the paddle shape of every goalie?
Thanks!
Its just custom molds
Travisss another great video keeper coming brother😊👊🏽❤️
Banging em out for ya bud!
@@trav4oilers yes brother thanks 😊
Any chance you’d share the spec sheets or a template? Looking to try this myself. Thanks
DONt got it anymore
How much do you cut and at what angle? Have you tried different cuts?
Would kill for that spec sheet to try some different ones
Sorry dude, I dont got it anymore. Best of luck to you, hope the video helps
where can I find this table with paddle???
Which table?
@@trav4oilers 1:36
I might try this one day, what are your thoughts on a finger trigger grip, out of curiosity ?
Rather this. I feel I might bust a finger with the trigger grip if I'm being honest
Love finger trigger fot forcefull pullback and extra paddle leverage. Only broken finger from lack of padding on backside of glove. Crunch.
2:07...Well that sure is an interesting way to trace a template, not lining it up at all with the shaft. Seriously what's the point of even doing a template if you're not going to align it to the stick and trace along it???
Best to buy a 24. You're making the stick strength integrity weeker and will loose ridgity for shooting! Or at least patch the cuts with fiberglass?
Fibreglass adds extra weight to your stick. You would also need to sand it down smooth. Sanding down fibre glass down isn’t fun.
Integrity isn't a problem though. The problem is my low blocker saves
Hey Trav where can i find the pattern??
not public, sorry man
Dang I might have to do this great video trav
dude it is game changing I'm telling you
@@trav4oilers aight
those pictures of the different type of goalie paddles can you send the markstrom one to me?
I dont have the pictures anymore my friend, tHANKS for the love and watching ;)
@@trav4oilers no problem love the vids keep em coming
Might try this
I highly recommend it man
Hey trav love the videos could you tell me where you got your leferve set up?
they gave me a free set lol
Hey, Trav'. Where did you find find all those stick-shaving templates?? Could you share the link?
Goalie in KHL sent me everything
@@trav4oilers Trav ya bastard you completely disregarded the second half of the question send us the damn link
@@mikesferrazza1919 send email
@@trav4oilers can you send me the stick shaving templates too?
@@trav4oilers Hi Trev, your video is very interesting. can you please send me the link to the templates? Thank you very much.
If I’m a 5’10 guy currently with a 26 inch paddle, what would be a better paddle length to go to ? I’m realizing it’s way too long for me . I might just get your buddy to cut it down for me
All preference on how you like your stance to be
Any chance you can share those templates? Looking to cut down my 7 yr old son's paddle.
Hey Chris, sorry I dont have the screen grabs anymore. Didn't think anybody would ask for them . Thanks for watching
I need to try it
Let me know how you like it man
@@trav4oilers ofc boss
I have a question how does healthcare work in Canada?
Lol its not all its cracked up to be.
over priced beer = "free" Healthcare :)
they cover this here, but make you pay here and there. They dont cover everything they say they do. You still pay
Hey Trav,
Where did you find all those stick shaving templates ?
Sent em by a KHL goalie
@@trav4oilersCan you send me please ?
I used to cut pin parts for Milwaukee
what do you mean
There are parts in side power tools called pin parts made of fiberglass and plastic.
Dang 22.5 paddle? I was using that paddle size when I was in 10u.
It's crazy what some guys like eh
"I once worked with a guy for three years and never learned his name. Best friend I ever had. We still never talk sometimes."
wtf lLOL
I ordered a Bauer custom stick with a round shoulder and it came with a stock shoulder, what do I do
the round shoulder and this are not the same. This is actually cutting it down, they just round the corners for you
@@trav4oilers yea I know but it came stock
STANLEY CUP CHAMP BOBBY 🐀
YES SIR!
Care to share the template?
I don't have them anymore
Why I got the post noti 1 minute ago, I do not know, but a great video regardless of me being late to the party.
Dude UA-cam is changing the algorithm all the time. I have no idea why other than they do what they do. Doing 3 videos a week rn but will likely change soon
Can you make the templates public?
Dont have them anymore
wouldnt it make your high blocker saves harder though? seems like a very hard-to-save blocker shot.
Not that I have experienced
@@trav4oilers I'm a smaller goalie, 5 foot 7, and I have to have a high stance, but, with a 22.5 inch paddle, I would have to get in a deeper crouch, don't you think for a smaller goalie high blocker save would be harder or easier?
I’ll be sure to update you how Bauer’s custom round paddle is when I get em :)
keep me posted buddy and thanks for watching as always!
looks like a high school science project
Hey bob does it so it aint that bad
Why the premier whyyyyyyy
So we are tempted to watch the vid tomorrow
Bringing back what made you love the vlog last year
you know it
I know your have explained why he shaves his stick but I still don’t understand why he would do that because would you not like to have a full stick the whole way but other then that trav it was a great video like always can’t wait to see you in next one bro
Its about the functionality of the hand. When you shave it down you'll see how the playable changes and how it opens up your hand a lot more!
Hey trav, could you share that sheet with me?
I got no idea where I saved it man
Could you please send me the sheet with stick profiles I want to do something like this and want to see the shapes used by players.
Send me an email bud or insta
you ever get that sheet, if so can you share?
doesn’t bauer have this kind of custom for their sticks?
It’s not the same
Night and day different. Rounded shoulder is no the same
Use foam wrap under the paddle of your stick it feels amazing then put grip tape over it
What foam wrap are we talking about ?
@@trav4oilers like the athletic foam wrap that like basketball use to tape their ankles
Rip trav4
wHY? I aint dead yet man
BOBBB
BACK ON THE CASE!
Trav uses Manscaped because of his mancrush on Bob.
Pauly, you think Bob is gonna wanna love me if I got a bush? No way man
You would think that a goalie who's a vezina winner could get his sponsorship company to custom make his sticks🤣
Apparently even that isn't enough
RIP to that CCM rep’s job
Apparently he still has not been fired
Does this help tho
Wouldn't do it if I didn't think it did
That doesn't weaken the stick where the paddle and handle join up? Damn goalies have come a long way from the Curtis curve
In my limited experience, nothing has changed to the stick. I love it man
@@trav4oilers does it help with puck handling?
3:04 no you purposely destroyed it
Dont go ratting me out
Why u do a premire bro
Because it gets you excited for I t
put the clamps down and will be less of a hazard. no potential eye pokes.
We like to live on the edge ;)
You sound exactly like mike commodore
DO I REALLY?
@@trav4oilers yes
I'm sure if you forced Bob to use a normal stick, he'd be aiight...
pros like that are set in their ways. they aint changing stuff like this
bo-BROV-sky! You're an embarrassment to the force! Get out of my office!
BACK ON THE JOB
