Sher-wood Rekker EK15 Review

Hi Beauties
Here is my review for the Sher-wood Rekker EK15
Video review: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j9yjen8kf1w

The Rekker EK15 was an amazing stick. Sher-wood is being very underestimated because they have cheap sticks that are popular among starter players, giving Sher-wood the nickname of "duster gear". The new Rekker EK15 is nothing close to duster gear. Its the lightest stick on the market weighing in at 385 grams.You fill how light it is the minute you take it off the rack. Compared to most other top of the line sticks it is 40 grams lighter.  That weight doesn't sacrifice the durability of the stick. It is 100% handmade, which reduces flaws in the stick and making it less prone to premature breakage.The blade of the stick gives you great feel and good pop. It is definitely one of the best blades I've used. The Rekker also has a low kick point. Making it perfect for the finesse shooter.
Specs:

Contoured feel- Double concave walls with rounded sides

Spear Construction- A true one piece stick. Improves puck feel

Ekore- Handmade stick helps flex point consistency and improves durability

12k carbon weave- Goes throughout the stick, making it durable and very light

Low Kick Point- For quick release shots and best for wristers and snappers

VRF.2 Blade- Vibration Reduction Foam core 2 helps with better feel,pop and accuracy for shooting, stick handling and catching or giving passes

Overall the Rekker EK15 is like a new birth to Sher-wood. It is a stick that can compare to other top of the line sticks from big brands. Theres still one more thing, the price. As other sticks are $270 to $300 for a senior, the EK15 is only $200. There is also the Rekker EK9 for $100 and the Rekker EK5 for $50. This line of sticks is best for a forward who takes quick release shots and instead of doing a big windup and blasting it through the goalie, likes to just snap of the puck and keep the goalie wondering when it left the stick. Its got a blacked out stealthy look, which is getting very popular. I love the looks of the twig.
