The Bauer AG5NT Stick is the lightest and quick-releasing Bauer Hockey stick ever. The new Boron Fiber Technology features optimal stiffness and compression strength that standard material can’t handle and is why Bauer can shred weight while speeding up the rate of shot release.
One of the key reasons why AG5NT and Boron can have a deadly quick shot in the first place is the proven XE Elliptical Shaft Taper. Since its debut on the Vapor FlyLite stick, XE has been fine-tuned every year since. With its slightly lengthed and reinforced design compared to the HyperLite, the AG5NT stick releases quicker and more accurately on every shot and pass.
Puck feel can be an issue on superlight sticks since the blade holds a dense weight compared to the lengthy shaft construction. Bauer was somehow still able to provide the hand-to-puck connection and feedback with their AG5NT blade core, unlike the dead and unresponsive feel some of the earlier super-light sticks had in the past.
