Bauer Nexus Tracer Junior Hockey Stick - 40 Flex

Their top-of-the-line Nexus stick for the 2024 season, the Nexus Tracer, takes inspiration from various designs of the past that worked, along with some new additions to bring you the best Bauer has to date. The Nexus Tracer stick is equipped with an ER Spine shaft construction, ACL 2.0 carbon fiber, TeXtreme carbon reinforcement, and a new ConnecTech blade, all designed to give you the best feel and connection to your stick. 

Stick Flex Profile
The Nexus line is officially taking the full mid kick spot of Bauer hockey sticks, which they previously shared with Supreme. Mid kick is a solid stick for players who often find themselves doing just a bit of everything during the game. The Nexus Tracer is ideal for those who want both big shots and a reliable release. Mid kick is made to be versatile in all aspects on the ice.

Shaft Construction & Stiffness
The Nexus Tracer had a lot of advanced technologies put into its shaft. To start, the shaft is made of ACL 2.0 UD carbon, which is known for its light weight and incredible strength. ACL 2.0 can be credited with the Tracer’s overall weight reduction, which is 25g lighter than the Geo (Senior). As the name implies, Bauer’s aim with the Tracer was to craft a stick that really connects to your hand and feels natural. For that, they’ve reintroduced Nexus’ distinct ER Spine technology, which is a lightweight, five-sided shaft geometry that promotes that natural hand connection you want.

Blade Construction
The Tracer stick uses the same blade core as the previous Geo, just with an added feature: ConnecTech. This technology is essentially a responsive rubber layer placed inside the stick for a better dampening effect, which then lessens impact force and makes the puck easier to control. Unlike the R-Lite System, ConnecTech can be found throughout the stick and not just in the blade.

In addition to ConnecTech, the Nexus Tracer features TeXtreme spread tow carbon reinforcement. TeXtreme is well known for its adaptability, durability, and lightweight properties, which is why it has been used in Bauer hockey sticks for over a decade.

Graphics
One of the goals with the Nexus Tracer was to keep shooting and control simple and efficient for the user. To reflect that, Bauer went with a simple blue and black colouration, with the new blue Tracer logo and silver Bauer text logo right at the mid kick point.

Grip
The Nexus Tracer uses a soft gloss grip, which works well with the ER Spine to balance control and freedom of movement for your hand.
