From the creators of the Pro Blackout™ comes the Pro Blackout™ Prototype, offering true pro specs and elite performance at a fraction of the cost. This is our lightest Blackout ever, weighing in at just 325 grams.
Weighing just 325g with a hybrid kick point, this stick plays with the biggest brands and features the same 24K Toray carbon fiber seen across the NHL. It is built using a true one-piece construction, not fused carbon shortcuts. Strip all the graphics away and you would never know the difference, except that this one looks unreal with a large checkerboard exposed carbon layup.
We are proud to offer the only retail stick featuring an underside tactile grip layered over a traditional tacky shaft. This pro-only feature is the most sought-after grip option at the highest levels of the game. We have selected the most popular texture used by today’s top players, including one chasing a highly coveted goal-scoring record.

"Swung by the Toronto store in June while visiting from California. My son (12yrs) wanted to try out a HSM Prototype stick since he has seen them advertised on IG. We bought him 2 to try out while playing in the Top Tier Toronto tourney. He loved them. Said they were “Way better” than his Bauer Pulse. Stop by a month later and picked him up 3 more sticks. They seem extremely durable and he loves the feel. Would definitely recommend giving them a try."
"I’m really enjoying this stick. First game was tough because it is a lot lighter than what I’ve played in the past. Also keep in mind I’m 52 and an average player. Definitely recommend! Great quality and shipping was quick. Thanks for offering a great stick!"
"Bought this for my son, who historically always used True sticks. I have suggested trying Blackout sticks in the past but he was always hesitant. Once he received it, he was very impressed with the quality of the stick and how light it was. Overall very happy with the purchase and would buy again."
"My son absolutely loves his Pro Stock Prototype! To get a stick of this quality for less than half of what a name brand costs at retail is amazing. I have three kids in hockey and will definitely be ordering more through Hockey Stick Man."
"This stick is very light; everyone is talking about it on the bench and on/off the ice in my league. It's a nice twig and a great price for what it offers. I did strangely crack the back side of the blade after only a few games, but thankfully, it was covered under the 30-day warranty! The warranty process was fortunately quick and easy. I couldn't be happier with the control and feel of the stick. . . I do wish HSM offered some different flex options, but this stick really feels like it was made just for me, and if I'm happy, I play better and am more confident because the stick checks all of the boxes at an extremely good price and not a novelty stick by any means."
"Fantastic stick, I have used a lot of sticks and this is by far the best stick I have ever used. Well balance and quick release. It is feather light and barely feels like you have stick in your hand. Would definitely buy again."
"Stick broke during first game but HSM was easy to process warranty and replacement through. I have been enjoying the stick for a few games now - very light with a good kick on shots."
"My son absolutely loved the Pro blackout Prototype stick and it quickly became his number 1 stick (even over JetSpeed FT7 Pro). However, after just three months it broke at the low kick point during a game. He was very disappointed that it didn’t last very long as he loved this stick."
"Used about six times now. Has good feel and a very active flex. Definitely have to change release point compared to a Warrior with same flex and curve profile. But I like the weight of the stick as well as the non-slip surface. Some sticks I find the shafts too sticky but this one is just right. Overall two thumbs up."
"My kids love these sticks! Great price, quality and quick shipping! Looking forward to the custom name and numbers being available in the USA. Thanks HSM!"
