- HEEL curves bend more near the heel of the Blade. This means that the bend of the blade starts here and straightens slightly towards the middle and toe. Heel curves are primarily used by defenders as they help improve the power and accuracy of slap shots.
- TOE curves with most of the bend centered around the toe of the blade, are often preferred by forwards because they allow them to lift the puck more quickly and easily when shooting in tight spaces in front of the net.
- MID curves are a combination of both. Since most of the bend is in the center of the blade, such curves are great for passing as well as for greater precision in all types of shots.

THE CURVE
The official IIHF rule is as follows: “The curvature of the blade shall be limited so that the distance of a perpendicular, measured from a straight line drawn from any point on the heel to the end (Toe) of the blade, is to the point of greatest curvature is no more than 1.9 cm.”. Today, league referees have fancy gauges to check for illegal curves.
Over the years, an interesting trend has established itself in the blade patterns of ice hockey sticks, which can be found in a similar form in the world of music: names of well-known NHL stars such as Ovechkin, McDavid and Crosby stand for these godfathers. However, elite player pay less attention to world-famous stars and more to the following essential purchase criteria: The shape of the blade curve, which represents the so-called HEEL, MIDDLE or TOE, describes the most curved area of the blade. The curve depth, which usually ranges between 9.5 mm and 13 mm, indicates the radius of the curvature of the blade face.

BLADE HARDNESS
With us you have the unique opportunity to freely determine the hardness of your blade! You have the choice between a Medium or Extra-Stiff version.
- Medium Reactive: Supports easier to receive and play passes. Easier for stick handling
- XX-Stiff: Faster and more accurate puck release. Forgiving a little less stick handling mistakes
GRIP
Hockey sticks are generally offered with a grip or non-grip coating. Sticks with grip usually have a sticky and possibly textured coating, while non-grip variants are smooth or matte.
What is the purpose of the grip?
The purpose of a grip is to be able to hold the stick better. While using the ice hockey stick, your lower shaft hand constantly moves up and down. For example, as soon as you swing for a shot, you don’t want your bottom hand to move much. This is where you generate most of your power and you also want maximum control. This allows for a harder and more precise puck release. With a non-grip coating, sliding your hand up and down the shaft is more easy. This can be a greater advantage for stick handling, but due to the slipperiness you may not get a firm grip when shooting.
In the end, it is up to your personal taste which type of grip you ultimately choose.
MARVIC Special Grip
MARVIC Corner Grip
“Corner Grips” is another option to customize the grip even more to your own taste. With these structural variants you also have the option of choosing which edges of your shaft the grip should be placed on. Choose from the following three options:
- “Front”（the two edges towards the stick face）
- “Back”（the two edges towards your body）
- “Front and back”（all four edges of the shaft）
Here at MARVIC HOCKEY we offer you an unrivaled selection of more than 15 grip options.
STICK LENGTH
Place your hockey stick with the back of the shaft flush against a wall. Now measure the length from the floor to the end of the shaft. This will give you the exact height. Please note that some other brands only measure the length from the heel of the club to the end of the shaft, resulting in a size difference.
Our standard is 66″ which is at least 1″ longer than most of our competitors’ sticks!
WHAT LENGTH SHOULD I CHOOSE?
To know which stick height is best for you, stand upright with your twig in front of you (the the stick is directly against your body). Without skates, the stick should reach between your chin and nose. Another way to measure is that the final size should be approximately your total height minus 15-20cm.
Shorter sticks offer more maneuverability and puck control. That’s why these are usually preferred by better technicians to guide the puck closer to the body and to protect it.
Defenders usually have longer sticks because this gives them a higher radius so they can more easily poke pucks away in duels and intercept passes. You can also hit harder slap shots with longer sticks.

WHAT IS THE "LIE"?
HOW DO I FIND THE CORRECT "LIE"?
Your height, skating position and playing style will all play a big role in your “Lie” choice. Also remember to wear skates when trying out sticks. If you are unsure, start in the middle, i.e. at a lie of 6. Assume your natural skating position, holding the stick comfortably and in the correct position as you would normally control or shoot a puck. Now look at the stick blade. If it lies flat on the ground it is perfect. If the toe of the blade is off the ground, you need a lower lie. If the heel is in the air, you need a higher one.
WHAT IS THE "LIE"?
The so-called “Lie” of your hockey stick is the angle of the shaft in relation to the blade when the bottom edge of the blade is flat on the playing surface. The correct “lie” helps you better control the puck, maximize the power of your shots and play with the correct skating position.

KICKPOINTS
Put simply, the kick point of a hockey stick is the area of the shaft that bends most easily.
Today there are mainly three different variants:
Why kick points are important in hockey
When it comes to hockey sticks, kick points play a crucial role in a player’s performance on the ice. Understanding how the kick point affects your shot can be the difference between a good player and an even better one. Simply put, the kick point is the area of the hockey stick where it flexes the most when shooting. A stick with a low kick point will flex near the blade, allowing for a quicker and more effective release. In contrast, a stick with a higher kick point will flex more in the middle or upper part of the shaft, providing more power, accuracy and control.
- High Kick is the most rarely chosen variant these days. Rather the first choice for the classic defender who loves powerful, elongated slap shots from a distance.
- Mid Kick sticks are designed to get you the maximum possible power. They are perfect for players who prefer snap shots or one-timers.
- Low Kick is ideal for players who prefer a quick puck release, mainly on wrist shots.
STICK FLEX
“Flex” is the measurement of how flexible or stiff your hockey stick is when you bend it. The flex rate tells you how much weight (pounds) you need to bend the Stick one inch (2.5cm). The optimal flex varies for each player, so you should try many options. The higher the flex number, the harder the stick is. On the other hand, with a smaller flex number the stick is easier to bend.
Since flex is a feature whose selection depends on many different factors such as age, height, weight, playing style, level,…, we do not use a standard table here. If you are unsure, contact us by email and we will be happy to help you. Basically, we recommend choosing something softer rather than too hard.
Please note: The flex value always refers to the standard length 65″ (165.1cm). If you shorten your hockey stick, the flex automatically increases by about 6-10 for every 2 inches (5cm) that are cut off. You buy a hockey stick with a flex of 80 and then cut 2″ off it, then the new felt flex is about 86-90. Another example: An extra-long stick with 71″ & 85Flex feels much more flexible/softer than a 65″ & 85Flex standard stick, even if both have the same flex of 85. If you now shorten the 71″ stick by 6″ (15cm) to 65″, both feel identical in terms of hardness.
MARVIC TECHNOLOGIES & DEVELOPMENT
Marvic wants to offer you top quality combined with the very latest technologies.
These are just a few that we are really proud of:
We only use high-quality Japanese carbon fiber for our sticks. Through unique manufacturing processes, we are able to raise the weight and durability of ice hockey sticks to a new level
ULTRA BAF+ or “Ultra Ballistic Air Foam+” is a special way of constructing the blade using a technique used by aircraft. This extraordinary fusion leads to extreme robustness against point forces
With the ETP system (Energy Transfer Point System), MARVIC HOCKEY has not only succeeded in responding to all the wishes of common ice hockey player types. We have developed Kickpoint technology that leaves nothing to be desired
By merging “nanoXTS” and “ULTRA BAF+”, our engineers have succeeded in developing a completely new technology for goalkeeper sticks. “IS EXTREME” (Impact Shield EXTREME) sets new standards in durability and balance for professional goalkeeper sticks
