The Warrior V1 Pro senior goalie stick takes the success of the extremely popular Warrior CR1 and pushes it to another level of light weight and performance. The 14K weave and MInimus Carbon G 1200 represent some of the most advanced materials available for sticks today.
Shaft Construction
The shaft of the Ritual V1 Pro Goal Stick features an impact fiber layer to increase durability on those shots that just miss your blocker. The HiFused construction also ensures that the stick is nicely balanced and not heel heavy. The VibexLite that returns from the CR line diminishes vibrations considerably, which is extremely important in a stick this light and stiff.
Paddle Construction
The paddle also features Twin Spar reinforcement to create a poppier stick when shooting, as well as creating a solid platform that is more durable than competitors.
Blade Construction/Stiffness
The 14K weave blade on the senior V1 Pro is an extremely stiff and lightweight piece that works extremely well at deflecting pucks exactly where they need to go. The lightweight blade along with the HiFused construction creates a staggeringly well balanced stick.
Graphics
The Warrior V1 Pro goalie stick has more colourways to offer than the original CR1 Pro. The Black/Silver and White/Silver colourways are returning, however both a White/Royal and White/Red have been added as well. The V1 Pro also has spots of exposed carbon near the edges of the stick, both for weight savings and visual appeal.
Grip
The V1 Pro senior stick features a good balance of grip that works well for poke checks and during play. The brightly coloured grip zone under the hand offers a raised tacky grip to keep the stick in your hand during play. If you need to slide your hand down the stick, the SlideGrip, which is a raised and matte finish on the shaft, does a wonderful job of limiting friction ensuring you get that poke check out as far as you intend.
Blade Patterns, Paddle Lengths, Stick Lengths, Weight, Level of Play
