FAQs

What material is the Slazenger Ikon Hockey Stick made from?

The Slazenger Ikon Hockey Stick features a traditional wooden construction, offering a classic feel and durability.

What sizes are available for this hockey stick?

It is available in various sizes: 28 inches, 30 inches, 32 inches, 34 inches, and 36 inches, catering to different player heights and ages.

Who is this hockey stick best suited for?

This stick is ideally suited for educational use, beginners, and players who are developing their fundamental hockey skills, thanks to its comfortable grip and focus on control.

How do I choose the correct size hockey stick?

The correct stick size is generally determined by a player's height. When standing upright, the top of the stick should typically reach between the hip bone and the naval. It's best to refer to a detailed sizing chart.

How should I care for the grip on my hockey stick?

Keep the grip clean and dry. If the cushioned taped grip becomes worn, loose, or loses its cushioning, it's recommended to remove the old tape and apply new hockey grip tape to maintain optimal comfort and control.

Can this stick be used in competitive matches?

While durable and suitable for skill development, the Slazenger Ikon Hockey Stick is primarily designed for educational and introductory use. For higher-level competitive play, players might seek more advanced composite sticks designed for specific performance attributes like power or flicking.

Troubleshooting

Grip feels loose or uncomfortable

Inspect the taped grip for wear. If worn or loose, remove the old tape and apply new hockey stick grip tape for optimal comfort and control.

Reduced shot accuracy or stick control

Ensure your grip is firm and comfortable. Practice basic drills focusing on stick-to-ball contact and follow-through. Re-evaluate if the stick size is appropriate for your height.

Stick feels too heavy or too short/long

This often indicates an incorrect stick size. Consult a hockey stick sizing guide to determine if you are using the appropriate length for your height and playing style. Consider purchasing a different size if necessary.

Wooden shaft shows minor splintering

Small splinters can be carefully sanded down and sealed with wood varnish or tape to prevent further damage. For significant damage, the stick should be replaced to ensure safety and performance.
