Is this legit?

Also, an aluminum one?

its legit. I remeber seeing it on the stx website, but after thinking about it a cs dpole sounds like a dumb idea IMO.

The Ti or a 7050?

I want to find a 7050 pole if possible. How light is really light?

laxzilla sells them

Someone on here has one. He said you can feel it a lot more when the ball falls out, so i guess there is somewhat of an advantage.

As I am currently finding out. $80 ain't a bad price for it. It says Aluminum alloy though, which worries me...

Can you compare it to something, say a KPro?

Just your lotto comment. Don't worry, I'm 50% Canadian, all my grandparents on my mom's side are from Nova Scotia.

Weight prevents checks from being as quick as possible. I've explained it before, but any defenseman who thinks using a heavy stick is better, is wrong. Thus, the lighter the better. I can dig up the old post if you'd like.

Just from being in the store?

I defenseman on my club team has the titanium CS with an X3. It's really nice and very light.

However, if you want it, you gotta hand over 300 dollars.
