Explore the Features of the Mercian Genesis CF15 Goalkeeping Stick

Genesis CF15 Goalkeeping Stick - Entry Level Composite Stick

The Genesis CF15 is a 15% carbon entry-level goalkeeping composite stick with specifically placed carbon inserts for good levels of stiffness, durability, and strength in specific areas. The higher balance point creates a lighter feeling head for faster stick movement and high saves, while the kinked shape helps with reverse stick saves and sweeps. The underlying fibreglass lay-up and advanced resins enhance durability despite the lightweight pick-up, aiding skill execution. Nano polymer resin creates a flexible but stronger bond between composite layers, increasing stiffness and reducing the risk of de-lamination.

Key Features:

• High-Quality Carbon: Preferred carbon from Japan, Germany, Scotland, and South Africa provides stiffness but can be brittle. Combining carbon with fibreglass and Kevlar enhances strength and durability.
• Fibreglass Construction: Fine glass fibres combined into thicker fibres, dipped in resin, and laid out to create single directional sheets. These sheets are layered at different angles for multi-directional strength.
• High Friction Finish: The final layer of lacquer on the face of the stick is mixed with fine grains of silicon polymer to create a texture that stops the ball spinning on contact. These tiny rubber particles 'squash' on ball impact, providing a damping effect.
• Pro (Low) Bend: 24mm bend at 230mm from the head.
• M-Gel Vibration Control: Silicon gel injected into the handle absorbs vibrations caused by power skills such as hitting and slapping, providing much more feel.
• Fibreglass Micro-Skeleton and Laminates: Forms a flexible base that absorbs energy, combined with carbon, Kevlar, and basalt for enhanced performance.
