HT has once again taken ice rod advancement to an all new level! The revolutionary Fast Stixangular blank incorporates an oblique sheer beginning with a traditional round base that graduates into a horizontally flattened, rectangular design that is diametrically stronger and adds significantly greater backbone and power before tapering into a well-balanced, thinner "spring tip" section, ultimately providing a unique action featuring a supremely heightened level of sensitivity!
