A young player on a team I coach rocked up to training with the new MB 70 hockey stick from Y1 the other day, I couldn’t resist getting their review.
The first thing to put in this review is the feedback on the amazing interactive stick quiz Y1 have on their website. This player is a defender, they slap the ball as a chosen pass and while they rely on power, are mainly known for using their skills to get in to good space to deliver their killer passes.
With this data in mind, the Y1 MB70 Hockey Stick is awesome to review for defenders. The MB range has been designed by Anna Toman, who herself is an awesome defender, playing for GB and the dutch club SCHC.
The Y1 MB 70 hockey stick review is a top-of-the-line stick for players of all levels. It is made with a combination of 70% Japanese Toray Carbon and 30% Aramid/Fibreglass/Kevlar. This provides a great blend of power and touch, making it perfect for players who want a stick that can handle both power shots and delicate touch plays. The MB 70 also features a gradual bow throughout the stick, which helps to provide consistency and control on the pitch. The MB shape has enough bow to generate power, but not too much to make it difficult to control.
The Y1 MB 70 is also designed with a shaved head, which makes it easy to perform 3D skills on the move and reverse lifting. The stick is also lightweight, weighing in at only 525g. This makes it easy to maneuver and control, even for players with smaller hands.
Overall, the Y1 MB 70 is a great stick for players who are looking for a high-performance stick that can handle both power and touch plays. It is also a great choice for players who want a lightweight and maneuverable stick.
