The Sherwood DLX Motion Pro Hockey Stick - Youth (2026) is a composite hockey stick built for young players who want elite-level performance in a look that stands out. Bold, non-traditional graphics make it easy to spot on the ice, while the DuoFire Kickpoint shapes how the shaft loads and releases the puck. An ultralight build paired with the Featherlite XT balance point, set higher on the shaft, keeps the stick feeling quick in the hands and supports faster shots and tighter puck control. Pyrofil by Mitsubishi Blackline XXV carbon fiber elevates the overall construction, and the VR92 Blade uses a dampening face to reduce vibration, with reinforced heel and toe zones for added impact resistance and durability. Two Tactile Grip zones, linear texture for the top hand and corner texture for the lower hand, limit stick rotation so the release comes out quicker and more powerful.
FEATURES:
- DuoFire Kickpoint: Kickpoint profile tuned for shot release
- Featherlite XT Balance: Higher balance point for quicker hands
- Blackline XXV Carbon: Premium carbon fiber for shaft construction
- VR92 Blade: Softer feel with tougher heel and toe
- Tactile Grip: Textured zones for steadier hand control

How To Size
Stick Sizing Basics
Selecting the right hockey stick depends on personal preference, but factors like height, weight, and age also play a role. Sticks come in Senior, Intermediate, Junior, and Youth sizes, each with different shaft dimensions and flex options. Junior and Youth sticks have smaller shaft diameters, making them easier for young players to handle and control.
While sticks can be cut down to adjust for height, choosing one that’s too long or has the wrong flex can negatively impact performance. Junior sticks sometimes vary in length depending on flex, so it's important to compare stick sizes to the player’s height before purchasing.
Understanding Flex
Flex is measured in numbers, which represent the pounds of force needed to bend the stick. A stick that’s too stiff makes shooting difficult, while one that’s too soft reduces shot power. Young players should choose a flex that allows them to fully load the stick for accurate, powerful shots.
Personalizing Stick Length
Stick length is largely a matter of preference, but a good starting point is measuring with shoes off. Place the stick upright with the toe on the ground—for most players, it should reach between the mouth and nose. For kids who are still growing, eye level is the recommended maximum.
When cutting a stick:
- Mark the shaft at the desired height and cut it down.
- Reinsert the end plug to prevent an open composite top.
- Remember: Cutting a stick makes it stiffer—every inch removed increases stiffness by about 3%.
If unsure, start with a small cut, as you can always shorten it further later.
Key Stick Features
Flex Options
- A properly chosen flex allows players to generate power without losing control.
- If a stick is too stiff, shots lack power; if too soft, shots lose accuracy.
Curve Options
- Sticks come in various blade curves to suit different play styles.
- Refer to our blade pattern chart for more details.
Kick Point Options
- Mid-Kick: Flexes in the middle for powerful shots, ideal for slap shots.
- Low-Kick: Flexes near the blade for a quick release, great for wrist and snap shots.
By choosing the right stick length, flex, and kick point, young players can maximize their performance on the ice.
