Sticks are without a doubt the holy grail of pro stock hockey gear. Not only are sticks the most fun piece of equipment to experiment with, but they’re also the most customizable as well. Whether you’re looking for a unique curve, flex, or graphic, chances are you’ll be able to find it in the pro stock section at SidelineSwap. Couple that with the fact that pro stock twigs are generally made with better materials than retail options and you really can’t go wrong here.
Like sticks, you’ll see an unmatched level of customization when it comes to pro stock skates. Professional players are often in contact with manufacturers like CCM and Bauer when it comes to creating their perfect fit, which means that you’ll find a lot of highly customized options here. Some of the more common customizations include skate sizing (ie. 1/4 or even 1/8 sizing options, and disparities between each foot), holder sizing (pros often size up their runners for more blade contact), tongue materials, and shot blockers. Whether you’re looking for elite performance, a specialized fit, or added protection, chances are you’ll find it in a pro stock skate.
Gloves are another popular category in pro stock hockey gear, and for good reason. Depending on the pair of gloves, you might see added protection, custom palms, custom cuffs, or unique colorways that you won’t find in retail.
Pro Stock Protective
Whether it’s a helmet or pair of pants you’re after, pro stock protective gear has got you covered from head to toe. If you’re playing in a contact league, pro stock pants in particular often offer more protection over retail options. You’ll also find plenty of older shoulder, elbow, and shin pad models that are no longer available at retail.
