Which Adidas hockey stick? Kromaskin, Fabela, Estro and Ruzo compared
Adidas has introduced their 2026 hockey stick range with a fresh color palette and design revisions tailored to different player needs and styles. The lineup includes the Kromaskin models, noted for their F1 pioneered technology wrap which enhances touch and power, with the .1 - .3 models being the stiffest and .4 - .8 offering progressively more control as the carbon content decreases.
The Fabela range is designed for the all-rounder, particularly players who prioritize control over aerials or drag flicks, featuring a mid-bow ideal for midf6elders. The Estro range mirrors the Fabela in design but offers a darker color scheme and various price points for an all-round mid-bow experience.
For those specializing in 3D skills, the Ruzo range with its low bow is perfect for creative dribbling and ease of lifting the ball. The Chaosfury range pushes the boundaries with an ultra-low bow, catering to players focused on aerials, 3D skills, and drag flicking without compromising on a flat face for other skills.
The Ina range is similar to Chaosfury but comes in a lighter color and is designed for players seeking freedom and creativity, offering exceptional capabilities for 3D skills and fast ball movement. Lastly, the Shosa range stands out with a unique kink in the stick face and an ultra-low bow, providing significant lift for drag flicks, though it is not recommended for beginners due to its unforgiving nature on flat skills.
Each range within the Adidas 2025 lineup serves a specific purpose, from the beginner-friendly Youngstar to the advanced Kromaskin series, ensuring that every player can find a stick that matches their playstyle and enhances their performance on the field.
Every range described here is stocked. See the current Adidas hockey sticks, or compare them against the rest of our hockey sticks.
