BAUER VAPOR HYPERLITE STICK INTERMEDIATE

The Bauer Vapor HyperLite Stick raises the bar once again for featherlight low-kick sticks in terms of durability, quick release and playability. 

Even at 385 grams, Bauer was able to improve blade toughness by 20% and shaft toughness by 5%, all while speeding up the shot release by another 10% too. Simply put, this is the best Vapor stick ever and it's not even close. Internally, the HyperLite stick debuts a drastically re-engineered blade core called HyperCore. Bauer fused two carbon fiber bridges into the stiff foam core for the 20% increased toughness, but the ripple effects are just as impressive.

HyperCore is even lighter than before, which provides players with a better balance point. The shot release speed increases because of the added stiffness plus it even extends the new-blade-feel longer too. While the shaft upgrades might not sound as exciting as the HyperCore blade, they still do a lot for the player.

The HyperLite uses a new Optimized Carbon Layup, along with their Asymmetrical TeXtreme Carbon and DuraFlex Resin System that again has a range of improvements. The 5% improved toughness is always welcomed on an expensive stick like this, but it even makes the shaft 10% easier to flex and makes it 10% quicker releasing for even better performance and playability.
