Intro & New Features
Put your finger on the pulse of the game. Featuring an ergonomic design and a player-inspired taper, the Bauer Pulse goalie stick is engineered to help you play the puck as well as you stop it. Catch hard rims along the boards with ease, feed defenders for quick breakouts plays, or go for glory with a shot at the empty net. No matter the situation, goalies will be ready to take control of every moment.
Shaft Construction
The shaft on the Bauer Pulse is constructed using TeXtreme carbon fiber. This material is used in Bauer goalie gear because of its durability, reliability, and performance. TeXtreme is more durable compared to other carbon fiber materials, and it is also incredibly lightweight. Bauer also included a tapered square shaft to this stick which is designed to help goalies give more feedback and responsiveness whenever the puck is on your blade.
Paddle Construction
Similar to the shaft, the paddle is also constructed using TeXtreme carbon fiber, a lightweight material used to increase durability and performance. This material is also more durable when compared to other carbon fiber materials. Inherited from previous goalie sticks, the Pulse features an ergo spine which is a unique design that creates a thinned-out layer of TeXtreme composite for your full sized paddle with a reinforcement spine on the back of the paddle. This design reduces weight and provides a sturdy base and efficient rebound control.
Another feature of the Pulse goalie stick is the addition of Boron material. This material is strong, reactive and is engineered to optimize energy transfer and give goalies that extra edge when handling the puck. Despite reducing the overall weight of the stick, Boron is extremely durable and it keeps the stick lightweight, without sacrificing reliability.
Blade Construction/Stiffness
The blade is constructed with an ExpanCel core which provides a lighter weight, greater durability, and an overall optimized feel when handling the puck. A new feature in the Bauer Pulse is the addition of the hybrid toe with TeXtreme. The Hybrid toe is a redesigned toe that features a square shape at the top of the blade to help stop board rims, while the bottom of the blade is rounded to help goalies pull the puck off the boards and make plays with the puck.
Grip
The new ergonomic grip is unlike anything goalies have experienced before. It is made to match the contours of your hand, this unique design helps remove negative space to keep you locked in through every movement. This goalie stick also includes a new raised-ink design that offers that premium feel and next-level grip, providing a better handle on the stick.
Blade Patterns, Paddle Lengths, Level of Play
The Bauer Pulse Senior Goalie Stick comes in a P28 curve in Black, in both a left and right hand stick. This stick also comes in paddle lengths 24”, 25”, 26”.
P28G is designed to suit goalies who are looking to make precision passes and quickly clear pucks. This curve has a square top and rounded bottom and is designed to help goalies catch rims on the fly.

Goalie Stick Sizing Information
Unlike other pieces of gear, Goalie Sticks are sized mostly to the goaltender’s preference and playing style rather than their height. The most important measurement, when purchasing a new goal stick, is the paddle height (the wide portion of the stick), which is usually taken from the heel of the stick to the shaft/paddle interface. The reason for the paddle height’s significance is because it sets up the goaltender’s depth in the ready stance and (if properly sized) positions the blocker in an optimal position.
Sizing Your Goalie Stick
To start analyzing the size of your goalie stick, put on your goalie skates to get an accurate height of where you will be in your stance. If you’re looking to be even more accurate, strap on your goalie pads and blocker as well. Once that is done, get comfortable in your natural stance (the one you’d be in during a majority of gameplay) and look for the following:
1. The entire blade of the stick is flush with the ground while being 1’ - 2’ in front of your feet
2. After getting your stick into the flush position, check that the inside edge of the blocker hand sits on the outside edge of the goal pad (this is while holding just above the paddle).
Goalie Stick Sizing Considerations
Goalie Stick sizing can be very subjective compared to other pieces of equipment. The reason for this is the ambiguity of each goaltenders ‘natural stance’, especially with younger goaltenders. It is rather common for children to use taller sticks in comparison to their height, as their stance depth isn’t usually as aggressive as a seasoned goalie.
The shaft length of a goalie stick is usually best left at its stock length, as it serves to counteract the weight of the blade and ideally place the center of gravity at the top of the paddle. The one exception to this rule is for advanced puck handlers, cutting the shaft will allow more power transfer when shooting as a result of being able to keep the blade flush to the ice while near the goaltender’s feet.
