Warrior Covert QR6 Pro Senior Hockey Stick

 New for 2024, Warrior has updated their Covert line with the QR6 Pro Senior 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 __ construction, or 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 lighweight 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.
