Name: Warrior Covert QR6 Pro Junior Hockey Stick - 30 Flex
SKU: 482565

Intro & New Features

New for 2024, Warrior has updated their Covert line with the QR6 Pro Junior Hockey Stick. Warrior has implemented new technological advances such as the P.L. 188 construction, Minimus Carbon 25, an all-new Edge Blade, and returning features such as the Edge Taper and O.G. Shaft Shape. This stick has everything the Covert line does best in a newer, lighter, and more responsive package.

Stick Profile

The Covert line is classified as a low to ultra-low kick point hockey stick, amplified by the QREdge taper near the hosel. This taper takes a hexagonal shape to augment power and quick release, the latter of which is a staple of the low kick point. The hexagonal shape also includes more sides on the shaft, making that taper much more durable.

Shaft Construction

Warrior is well-known in the hockey and lacrosse worlds for constantly reworking their carbon construction and materials, and this stick’s shaft demonstrates their advancements in that area. Minimus Carbon 25 is of Warrior's own advancements and utilizes a flat spread tow weave, which provides strength by reducing fiber crimp and deformation during the composite layering process. This weave is thin and light while still being resistant to damage.

The weave is paired with their new shaft construction, known as P.L. 188, a completely re-engineered shaft that provides improved durability and weight reduction by using lower weight fibers and thermoplastic-toughened epoxy resin that creates a consistent level of balance, weight, and durability.

Blade Construction

The QR6 Pro stick debutes a new blade known as the Edge Blade, a redesigned technology with a lightweight polymer blade core wrapped in Minimus Carbon 25. This blade is able to deliver great durability, pop, and feel. Additionally, the redesign adds a new shape where the blade meets the ice to enhance the overall handling and feel during play.

Graphics

The QR6 Pro has a dark grey base, with holographic finishes found along the spine and in the Warrior logo as well as a holographic outline in the Covert lettering. The carbon layering is visible at both the top of the shaft and the blade.

Grip

Warrior has implemented a mix between two different raised patterns, with a pigskin texture on the sides of the shaft and ribbing along the spine. Pigskin texture is a non-animal based grip that replicates the feel of a football. The grip is a medium tack finish.

Blade Patterns, Flex & Stick Length

The Warrior Covert QR6 Pro Junior Hockey Stick is available in the following blade patterns: W03, W28, and W88.

W03 is the best all-around blade pattern, with a mid-curve style. It is great at handling the puck in small spaces, including face-offs; however, this curve may suffer a little bit on the backhand.
W28 is a much more aggressive stick pattern, used often by elite players. This blade curve specializes in quick and accurate shots, but it can be a bit difficult to get used to since it is also very good at raising the puck.
W88 is a relatively traditional curve. A popular choice in the past, it excels greatly in stickhandling, quick wrist shots, and snappy backhands.
