The Answer is built for goalies who want to own more than the crease. At just 550 grams, it's the lightest goal stick Warrior has ever made, giving goalies the speed to shut own blocker-side chances and the freedom to make plays with the puck. Its low-kick flex snaps passers off the blade, while enhanced shaft geometry gives your bottom hand the control and leverage to put the puck exactly where you want it.
Shaft Construction
The shaft itself is constructed with an asymmetrical shaft geometry. This is designed to enhanced bottom hand control, leverage, and accuracy with increased durability strength against heavy puck impacts.
Throughout the shaft, Warrior has also included the use of their Minimus Carbon 25 construction. This carbon weave is a flat, spread-tow material that optimizes strength by reducing fiber crimp and deformation in the composite layering. The weave is thin and super light, yet extremely durable, strong, and resistant to damage.
Paddle Construction
Warrior used the TwinSpar paddle reinforcement when creating this stick. This technology increases stability and allows for an easy-loading mid-flex profile that helps to maximize shooting power. In addition to the TwinSpar technology, this stick also utilizes Vibex, a vibration reduction technology that dampens the feel of puck impacts, which aids the overall longevity of the stick.
Blade Construction
The Answer goalie stick is stiff and lightweight allowing for efficient puck play and deflections. The Minimus Carbon 25 coupled with the Hi-Fused construction creates an elite stick that is performance-minded and well balanced.
Grip
Featuring an asymmetrical shaft geometry and advanced SlideGrip technology with strategically textured zones, this stick delivers unmatched control and a secure hold in every critical moment.
Blade Patterns, Paddle Lengths & Level of Play
The Warrior Answer Senior Goalie Stick comes in a left and right handed option, paddle lengths 23"-26". This goalie stick is also offered in the Twist blade pattern.
The Twist blade pattern, also known as the W33, is a rounded heel square-toed, slightly open-faced blade with a mid-twist curve.

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.
