**Description** With a Tru-Mid flex point, Bauer's Nexus line of hockey sticks is optimized for greater control over the puck. Shaft The premier stick in the Nexus line, the 1000 is manufactured with TeXtreme ultra lightweight carbon fiber fabric, saving on weight without compromising strength. The eLASTech composite increases the stick's durability and extends the life of the flex/reflex by preventing the spread of the micro-fractures that eventually rob most sticks of their "pop." Nexus GripTac texture on the handle provides superior grip between the player's glove and the stick, benefiting control over the stick during passing, shooting, and receiving a pass. The double concave design provides good grip points around the square shaft. The 1000 is a true one-piece stick, reducing the need for "joining," with a more efficient energy transfer and reduction in weight. The Tru-Mid flex offers an easier sweet spot in the player's swing with a wider flex and more forgiveness when the swing is off. Blade The Power Core 4 features a dual-density blade, combining two types of foam for strength and energy absorption. With their Pure Shot Blade Profile, Nexus designed a more robust transition from shaft to blade, preventing blade deflection during passing and shooting.
