Genesis CF25 Goalkeeping Stick - Intermediate Composite Stick

An intermediate GK stick utilising the strength of a 25% carbon shell and a standard low bow shape. A slightly higher balance point (moving towards the handle from the head) assists stick head movement and therefore increases saving potential. The stiffness provided enables balls to be confidently deflected and swept away. Available in 34" and 36.5".

The 25% carbon delivers the required stiffness, while the fibreglass provides touch, feel, and durability. The lightweight construction and higher balance point make skill execution easier for juniors. Nano polymer resin creates a flexible but stronger bond between composite layers, increasing stiffness and reducing the risk of de-lamination.

Key Features:

• High-Quality Carbon: Preferred carbon from Japan, Germany, Scotland, and South Africa provides stiffness but can be brittle. Combining carbon with fibreglass and Kevlar enhances strength and durability.
• Fibreglass Construction: Fine glass fibres combined into thicker fibres, dipped in resin, and laid out to create single directional sheets. These sheets are layered at different angles for multi-directional strength.
• High Friction Finish: The final layer of lacquer on the face of the stick is mixed with fine grains of silicon polymer to create a texture that stops the ball spinning on contact. These tiny rubber particles 'squash' on ball impact, providing a damping effect.
• Pro (Low) Bend: 24mm bend at 230mm from the head.
• M-Gel Vibration Control: Silicon gel injected into the handle absorbs vibrations caused by power skills such as hitting and slapping, providing much more feel.
• Kevlar (Aramid) Durability: Enhances the strength and durability of the stick.
• Fibreglass Micro-Skeleton and Laminates: Forms a flexible base that absorbs energy, combined with carbon, Kevlar, and basalt for enhanced performance.
