Warrior Covert Krypto Pro Senior Hockey Stick

Intro & New Features
The Krypto Pro hockey stick is a Source for Sports exclusive from Warrior for the 2022 season. This means the stick uses many big features on a mid-level model, which means you get to experience those high-end features at a more affordable price point. Features include an Edge Taper, Minimus Carbon 3 in the blade, R.L.C. 133, and Fuelcore.

Stick Flex Profile
The Krypto Pro is part of Warrior’s Covert line, making it a low kick hockey stick. Rather than empowering shots by storing more energy higher up in the shaft, low kick sticks excel at releasing the puck quickly off the blade by bending lower and closer to the hosel. The Covert line specifically is known for having a lower kick point than standard low kick sticks, which allows for an even quicker release.

Shaft Construction & Stiffness
The stick uses R.L.C. 133 coupled with a Minimus Carbon construction for a build that is both tough and feels great in your hand. Revolutionary Lightweight Construction 133 is the same as they use in the QR5 30 and includes highly lightweight carbon fibre and epoxy resin to boost the shaft’s toughness. Minimus Carbon is Warrior’s carbon weave design that enhances the feel of the stick.

Blade Construction
The blade is made with Fuelcore covered with Minimus Carbon 3 layering for additional reinforcement. Both Fuelcore and Minimus Carbon 3 have been remodeled for increased durability, with Fuelcore designed specifically to reduce material breakdown in the blade. Above the hosel, the Krypto Pro is equipped with an Edge Taper, which can also be found in the highest-end Warrior sticks. This taper has an angular geometry for more stability and increased efficiency in driving energy from flex through the hosel and into that quick-release shot you want.

Graphics
Similar to the rest of the Covert line, the Krypto Pro uses an orange, blue, and black colour scheme. This variation is predominantly orange at the top with grey and blue highlights near the bottom of the shaft.

Grip
The Krypto Pro uses a gloss grip to help with controlling and holding the stick.

Blade Patterns, Flex & Stick Length
The Krypto Pro Senior hockey stick is available in the following blade patterns: W03, W28, and W88.
W03 is the best blade pattern for all-around play, with a mid-curve style. It is great at handling the puck in small spaces, including face-offs.
W28 is a much more aggressive stick pattern, used often by elite players. This blade curve specializes in quick and accurate shots, but it can be a bit difficult to get used to since it is also very good at raising the puck.
W88 is a relatively traditional curve. A popular choice in the past, it excels greatly in stickhandling, quick wrist shots, and controlling snap shots.
