The Y1 Hockey YLB 70 Hockey Stick is a specialist low bow stick designed for advanced players who want exceptional drag flicking performance alongside versatile 3D skills. Featuring Y1's unique Carbon Power Chain technology, this stick combines a 70% premium Japanese carbon and 30% fibreglass/aramid composition to deliver impressive power transfer and control across all areas of play.
The revolutionary YLB profile features an aggressive 24.5mm low bow positioned 200mm from the head, complemented by a natural concave groove on the shaft that creates a slingshot action perfect for drag flicks. The innovative 'knife cut' head shape with tapered underblade makes 3D skills and aerial work significantly easier, while the carbon-reinforced backhand blade enhances power and accuracy on reverse stick shots and passes. Y1's Hot Edge technology further strengthens the backhand zone, and the bristled Extended High Control Area provides excellent touch when dribbling and manoeuvring at pace.
As a carbon neutral hockey brand, Y1 offsets all emissions from production, making this stick a responsible choice for environmentally conscious players.
