^you may disagree, but not all pros use 102 flex. im sure the smaller guys like st louis use something is the 87 range. while
chara will use 150flex lol in my mind, its all preference. and thats from personal experience. i have 1 reebok snake grip thats 87flex and had a bauer xvi that was 102flex (broke it against the boards) and i HATED the bauer with the 102 flex. i could snipe so much ...
