Both the shaft and the blade of the Bauer Vapor X:60 incorporate TeXtreme® carbon fabric to achieve optimal weight reduction and enhanced performance.
The Bauer Vapor X:60 hockey stick is Oxeon's second collaborative undertaking with Bauer Hockey following the success of the Bauer Supreme One95 ice hockey goalie stick launched in May 2008.
Thanks to TeXtreme®’s unique structural qualities, the Bauer Vapor X:60 offers elite level ice hockey players optimized balance and powerful, accurate shooting performance. Extensive product testing has yielded spectacular results. The Bauer Vapor X:60 will be available at retail in October.
"Our customers, both elite and amateur, have high expectations for our products. We must constantly innovate in order to continuously enhance performance. Oxeon's spread tow carbon fabric, TeXtreme®, delivers uniform weight distribution plus improved mechanical properties combined with significant weight reduction. These features have allowed us to take the Vapor X:60 and One95 sticks to an entirely new level of performance,” said Adam Gans, Director of Product Development, Stick Category, at Bauer Hockey Inc.
Andreas Josefsson, Vice-President of Business Development at Oxeon, reinforces similar thoughts: “The confidence instilled by Bauer Hockey in TeXtreme® reinforcement for manufacturing their elite products reflects both the high quality and innovation of our carbon fabrics. It has been truly a wonderful experience to join forces with Bauer Hockey to develop these high-end products.”
