If you're looking to experience the same type of power transferring technology that is found in Reebok's RIBCOR stick at a fraction of the price, then the RIBCOR 25K might be the stick for you.

The RIBCOR series of sticks from Reebok is all about having a stick that is easier to load and more efficient at generating power for your shot. The quick release of the stick comes from the low-mid kick point, while still providing excellent control and accuracy from the stiffness of the SSX blade. The RIBCOR 25K is among the lightest sticks in its class and is very well-balanced with a nice clean graphic look that draws on the same look as the higher end RIBCOR.

Reebok uses a combination of fiberglass and high modulus carbon fiber for this stick. The orientation of the carbon fibers creates the High Power Taper Ratio, which means that it has a stiffer top and bottom in relation to the front and back of the shaft. The senior shaft uses a Traditional geometry with square-corners, while the intermediate and junior uses a Contoured geometry with rounded corners for a better fit in smaller hands. The RIBCOR 25K has textured zones throughout the shaft for improved handling and is only available with a full Griptonite finish.

What sets this stick apart? The carbon fibers are permanently in tension because of the unique visible RIB geometry through the taper of the RIBCOR 25K stick. Basically, this means that less effort is required to get the fibers to tense and load because they are already part way there.

Just like the RIBCOR, the RIBCOR 25K also features the SSX blade design. This simply means that the blade goes from stiff in the heel to extra stiff at the toe. The blade also features what Reebok likes to refer to as their Tri Matrix construction. The 45° fiber orientation stores and releases energy, while the 0° and 90° fiber orientation adds strength and stability, all designed to improve performance and accuracy.
