Warrior Ritual V4 RTL Senior Goalie Stick
Editor's Full Product Review
"The Warrior Ritual V4 is ideal for goalies who want a lightweight, durable stick with a stiffer flex profile. It’s a strong choice for those who frequently play the puck and need consistent performance on stopping rims and making short passes. If you value a controlled, connected feel in the hand with a bit more stiffness than most elite sticks, the V4 delivers on all fronts."
Intro/New Features
The Warrior Ritual V4 RTL Senior Goalie Stick is the newest in Warrior’s elite level sticks, with RTL now taking the place of the Pro + as the top offering this year. This stick features a mid-flex profile, Asymmetrical Shaft Geometry, Minimus Carbon 25, Vibex Vibration Reduction, and TwinSpar technology, all of which is brought together using the Hi-Fused Construction process.
Shaft Construction
Warrior utilizes the Asymmetrical Shaft Geometry in their V4 RTL stick. The shaft construction improves bottom hand control, increases accuracy, and provides goalies with the confidence and leverage needed to guard against heavy puck impacts.
The V4 RTL stick makes transferring flex energy through the stick easy for maximum shooting power and stability using a mid-flex profile, which gives more power and control for hard tape-to-tape passes and long distance plays to clear the defensive zone.
Paddle Construction
Warrior used the TwinSpar Paddle Reinforcement in the RTL, a feature they brought back to their lineup in 2021. This technology increases stability and allows for an easy-loading mid-flex profile that helps to maximise shooting power. In addition to the TwinSpar technology, this stick also utilizes Vibex, a vibration reduction technology that dampens the feel of puck impacts, which aids the overall longevity of the stick.
Blade Construction/Stiffness
The V4 RTL Stick is extremely stiff and lightweight, allowing for efficient puck play and deflections. The Minimus 25 Carbon coupled with the Hi-Fused stick construction creates an elite stick that is performance-minded and well balanced.
Graphics
Warrior has used white, black, and silver colouration for the V4 lineup of this year. Exposed carbon weave is seen on the V4 RTL blade, with white meeting the rest of the paddle at the heel and going up. Silver accents are seen throughout the stick, with the Warrior text and logo set in a reflective metallic colouring.
Grip
Warrior uses a standard grip in their V4 RTL stick. Paired with the Asymmetrical Shaft Geometry, goalies benefit from additional leverage and accuracy, as well as an increase in bottom hand control.
Blade Patterns, Paddle Lengths, and Level of Play
The Warrior Ritual V4 RTL Senior Goalie Stick is available in 23”, 24”, 25”, and 26” in the White colourway. This stick comes stock in two blade patterns: Twist and Mid.
The Twist blade pattern, also known as the W33, is a rounded heel, square-toed, slightly open-faced blade with a mid-twist curve.
The Mid blade pattern, also known as the W32, is a square heel, square-toed, slightly open-faced blade with a mid curve.
