Blade for a stick

Abstract

The invention is for a blade for a stick, such as a hockey stick or a floor hockey stick comprising: an attachment means for a shaft close to an essentially elongated blade in turn comprising a first and a second surface surrounded by an upper and a lower longitudinal edge as well as a first and a second short side. Said first and second surfaces comprise a shooting and a dribbling surface as well as at least one hole, whereby said hole extends between the first and the second surfaces of the blade. The hole is a ball hole and comprises at least one diameter adapted such that it can hold the ball both during floor and air dribbling. Moreover, the ball hole is located in close proximity to the other short side, while the attachment means are located close to the short side. The ball hole is also enclosed by shooting and dribbling surfaces, the upper longitudinal edge and the lower longitudinal edge as well as the second short side. The blade provides the user with unusually good control of the ball during dribbling and facilitates a more air-based play than previously known blades.
