Y1 ADB 30 Hockey Stick - Black

The Y1 ADB 30 is a field hockey stick for players who want to carry the ball — dribbling, 3D skills and precise passing from anywhere on the pitch. The ADB profile was developed with international forwards, midfielders and defenders, and it shows in how the stick handles rather than how hard it hits.

Key Features

• Advanced Dribble Bow (ADB) — a thinned blade profile that makes 3D dribbling and reverse lifts easier on the move.
• Y1 Japanese carbon technology — precision-fused materials for stiffness and feel through the ball.
• 30% Japanese Toray carbon fibre — balanced with 70% fibreglass and aramid for toughness as well as stiffness.
• Reduced head design — easier to handle for quick skill moves and tight pivots.
• Balanced toe — smooth reverse picking and clean control on the turn.

Performance Overview

Carbon content is the number that tells you how a stick will play. At 30%, the ADB 30 sits in the control bracket: enough stiffness to pass firmly, enough give that the ball settles on the receive instead of springing off the face. Combined with the thinned blade, it is a stick built for the player who wants to beat someone rather than hit through them.

Benefits

Skills only come off if the stick lets them. A thinner blade and a reduced head make the difference between a 3D lift that works and one that catches, and a forgiving carbon blend means a mistimed receive does not run away from you. For a developing skilful player, that is the right set of trade-offs.
