This is the original Rocket design with a big taper. The hook is short but tight, following the radius of the puck to lock it in when tackling and turning and greatly assisting puck control and possession skills. Inspired by a 90's design created by Dolan "Pocket Rocket" McGinley.
This design is lightly textured on the passing bevel for an easy transition from wooden sticks.
You can choose between "slim" and "strong thumb" handles. The thumb support handle is thicker and keeps the thumb in a more neutral position to reduce risk of the thumb joint over-extending when hit, similar to the handle of the Rocket Chunky. This helps players with vulnerable thumb joints or who have had injuries to the thumb.
Sold as a pair, 1 white and 1 black.
