Bauer Nexus Havok Junior Hockey Stick - 2022

Intro & New Features

The Bauer Nexus Havok hockey stick is an exclusive model to Source for Sports that aims to provide elite performance at an affordable price. This hockey stick comes with some of Bauer’s best technologies, including Nexus’ signature ER Spine, 15K carbon fibre in the shaft and blade, and a Dual Cell Bridge core blade. With this iteration, Bauer continues to develop more options for players who love the balance of power and agility that the mid kick Nexus line offers.

Stick Flex Profile

With the 2022 season, Nexus officially takes the position of Bauer’s mid kick hockey stick line. The Nexus Havok is designed to be well-balanced in terms of its performance and price point. As it stood before, Nexus’ mid kick focused a lot on bridging the gap between nimble play and powerful shots. The Nexus Havok features an enhanced feel, dynamic release, and easier flex, all elements from both traditional low and mid/high kick hockey sticks.

Shaft Construction & Stiffness

The shaft of the Nexus Havok uses advanced materials to help you perform at the elite level. It is made of 15K carbon fibre and uses Nexus’ distinct ER Spine geometry, both features found in elite-level Bauer sticks. 15K carbon ensures the shaft is incredibly durable, especially at the Havoks’ price level. The ER Spine is a five-sided shaft built to allow your fingers to contour around the shaft, resulting in a better feel. This geometry is exclusive to the Nexus line.

Blade Construction

The blade features a Dual Cell Bridge core and is made with 15K carbon fibre, similar to the E5 Pro. The 15K carbon keeps the blade stiff while you shoot. Bauer connected the blade to the shaft with their High Performance (HP) mold, effectively enhancing that connection you need with your stick to take full control of the ice.

Graphics

The Nexus Havok moves away from the distinct Nexus blue to instead favour a black and metallic bronze look. The colouration is clean and will make your stick stand out from the rest of the Nexus sticks in the dressing room and on the ice.

Grip

The Nexus Havok stick uses a soft gloss grip, which works well with the ER Spine to balance control and freedom of movement for your hand.

Blade Patterns, Flex & Stick Length

The Bauer Nexus Havok Junior Hockey Stick is available in the following blade patterns: P88, P92, and P28.

P88 is a relatively traditional curve. A popular choice in the past, it excels greatly in stickhandling, quick wrist shots, and controlling snap shots.

P92 is the best blade pattern for all-around play, with a mid-curve style. It is great at handling the puck in small spaces, including face-offs.

P28 is a more aggressive stick pattern, often used by elite players and favoured by younger generations. This blade specializes in quick shots, but it can be a bit difficult to control. Young players will have very little problem raising the puck on the forehand with this pattern.
