Buyer's Guide: Mid Kick Point

A Mid Kick stick is a "slingshot." It is designed to store maximum energy and release it with heavy velocity.

1. What is Mid Kick?

The stick flexes in the middle of the shaft.
Benefit: Power. Because the flex zone is larger, it stores more potential energy than a Low Kick stick.
Best For: Defensemen who take slapshots from the point, or power forwards who take heavy one-timers.

2. Who uses Mid Kick?

Players who have time to "load" the stick. If you take a big wind-up or lean heavily into your wrist shots, this stick will reward you with a harder shot. Think of players like Alex Ovechkin or Victor Hedman.

3. Popular Mid Kick Families

  • Bauer: Nexus (Control/Hybrid) & Supreme (Power)
  • CCM: Tacks (Modern Mid Kick)
  • Warrior: Alpha & Novium
Hybrid Kick? Many modern sticks (like Bauer Nexus or CCM Jetspeed) are technically "Hybrid." This means they have a dual-flex profile: they can be quick like a Low Kick when needed, but powerful like a Mid Kick on hard shots. We classify these under the Mid Kick umbrella for simplicity.

Common Questions

Is Mid Kick harder to use?
It requires slightly more effort to load. A Low Kick stick snaps with a flick of the wrist; a Mid Kick stick requires you to engage your core and lean into the stick. It rewards good technique.
Can I use it for snapshots?
Absolutely. Modern Mid Kick sticks (especially the Bauer Nexus) are very versatile. They are not just for lumbering defensemen anymore; they are great for any player who wants a balanced feel.
