The stick rigidity data collected by Dr. Evans and I is not a formal reflection on the manufacturers because the sticks were previously used and we could not find an ASTM standard to setup our test. The possibility exists that I put the support positions too close together, which would make the values lower. The players however gave us the sticks because they were "so used they were now flimsy". Our data reflected this. If I had it to do over again I would test a new stick vs an old stick. Kettering University has done some research on this subject and we tried to setup our test apparatus similar to theirs. They applied the force to the foot of the stick. We applied the force to the center. www.kettering.edu/news/taking-...
I thought this was a great video of a product that has normalized the process by constraining the 1 inch deflection measurement.

    When calculating the compression of the puck, did you consider the temperature of the rubber? In the NHL, rule 13.2 covers frozen pucks: 13.2 Supply - The home team shall be responsible for providing an adequate supply of official pucks which shall be kept in a frozen condition. The frozen pucks are stiffer and less likely to bounce.

    You should see a fencing blade sometime. Blades used at the international level in foil and epee have a minimum and maximum deflection when tested (clamp the blade 70cm from the front face of the tip, hang a 200gm weight from the end, measure the deflection. But even the stiffest blades look like wet noodles when in use at super slo mo....it's amazing I hit anything after taking a parry, frankly.

    In hockey you have two possible ways to shoot, the slapshot (shown in the video) and the wrist shot (you start the shot with the stick on the ice and the puck on the stick and drag it forward, accelerating it with a wrist twist at the end). In Germany you are not allowed to do a slapshot in the lowest two age classes, as they also play in a smaller field. The slapshot is also more inaccurate and mostly used by defenders in the offensive, trying to force a rebound, while the wrist shot is used when you really want to hit the spot you aim for. The best thing about the wrist shot is once you get the technique right you hit exactly the spot your stick points at at the end of your shot. Also in pee wee hockey a slapshot is very hard to do anyways, as your sticks are usually so stiff they don't even have flex ratings (because they are too short and usually pretty cheap). So this video probably wouldn't have helped you back then :P

    In golf, a similar thing happens, except it is the ball that compresses, deforms, and stores the extra energy before springing off the club. Yes, the club also has some spring, but not like a hockey stick that hits the ice first. Then, a whole bunch of cool physics affects the ball in flight...which in my case usually results in a slice.

    @@minecrafter0505 sadly incorrect information you forgot snapshots and back hands... Also i shoot harder slap shots with stiffer sticks as do the pros both chara and weber use over 110 flex. Lastly in pewee i had an easton typhoon (two piece stick where the shaft was composite and the blade wood) with a rating of 45 flex. So in short a stiffer stick is better if your good at slaps, there are more then two shots and youth sticks come in more flexible amounts.

    I love how you're really diving into the science behind hockey the last few months. Something to keep in mind with sticks is the kick point, or flex point, is not the same on every stick. Some sticks have the kick point in the middle of the shaft, others have it lower or higher on the shaft of the stick. Also 2 piece sticks, which are a shaft and separate blade that are glued into place, can have very different flex and kick characteristics from 1 piece sticks.

    Haha! Im not a defenseman, but I take my sticks pretty stiff. I have a Warrior QR-1 with a 110 flex. Im a heavy guy so I need a good flex profile to get that stick bent and to get that puck flying. Ive perfected my own techniques of various shots to accommodate my flex. Now, I do however break my sticks often, but I have about 8 of the same stick, that's because I need back ups and I don't like any other stick than I have right now. Plus my curve is NASTY! Utilizing flex is a skill and you have to constantly keep using that flex to actually perform your best with it. If you use an 85 and your slapshot wont get up that's because you haven't learned your stick yet. You gota learn the flex, learn the curve, learn the weight. Trust me, when I was starting off I used 85's and then I jumped up to 110 through a graduated amount of time, it was hard to learn how to re take my shots again but its an easy thing to come by, just practice!

    Hi Destin, I love getting smarter every day with you. Your enthusiasm is contagious! I do have a couple of questions: 1) When you crushed the hockey puck, did you freeze it first? They use frozen ones in the game. Or were you just crushing the puck for fun? 2) When the stick broke, will it always break in the same place or do the circumstances of why it broke make a difference? You showed your slap-shooter hitting the puck super-fat on relatively clean ice (not chewed up due the playing of the game. If the were to break due to fatigue or if the shooter hit the toe or the heel of the hockey stick harder/first/second, or if the ice were rougher, like it is at the end of each period, would that change the fatigue point? I assume if the hockey player hit a different hard surface (e.g. the goal pipes, the boards, or another player's body parts) the fracture point might be different in a different place. I have often seen the stick break where the blade meets the handle, but they may not have been "one piece composite" sticks. DFTBA

  • @BrianMcDonald

    @BrianMcDonald

    10 жыл бұрын

    The stick can break in pretty much any part of the stick. Based on the nature of the composite construction, impacts (from pucks, other sticks, etc.) may cause structural compromise to the fibers of the stick, and when that compromised area is stressed again, it will fail and break.

  • @Tidus22340

    @Tidus22340

    10 жыл бұрын

    A one piece composite stick generally breaks near where the blade meets the shaft. The ice surface and how smooth or rough it is will generally have no impact on where a stick would break. Other impacts, as Brian said, can cause structural failure - in this case, the player was probably a defenseman and the stick had been flexed in the same place too many times, causing it to snap at the shaft like that. A two piece stick will break off the blade almost exclusively, as that's where the shaft and blade are joined together. Usually right along the heel of the blade.

    Kick points are independent of the flex. You can have high or low kick (meaning this is the spot where the elasticity returns to its resting state FIRST) and still have the same flex reading.

    As a HUGE hockey fan from my earliest age and a street hockey player in my youth, this vid was an eye opener! I NEVER knew that you pre-loaded the stick before hitting the puck in the slap-shot! The fact is I always had a GREAT hard and accurate wrist shot but never understood why my slapshot was well below average (read terrible). NOW I know that in hitting the puck like a golf club hitting a golf ball I was receiving NO "sling" at all! I never had a clue... Dang, Smarter Every Day, I sure could have used you back when!

    Destin, One note on the "disproving flex number" portion of this video. Hockey sticks are made at a certain length from the factory, relatively within an inch of each other in any given batch. If the player is taller than 6'2" and prefers a longer stick, an extension can be added to the top of the stick which would actually decrease the flex number of said stick. Likewise, some players like shorter sticks, and cutting the sticks down from the top increases flex. Otherwise, solid video - and it would be interesting to see a second part of this made with different brands and models. Bauer's Vapor line claims a "dual kick point", a mid for slap shots and a lower (like the Warrior stick used here) one for wrist and snap shots. CCM's RBZ line claims no kick point (or variable), flexing where your hand is on the stick as opposed to a predetermined point. To whoever asked how much the stick cost that the player broke: $250 US. It's a Warrior Covert DT1 LT, an elite level stick generally used by players in juniors (QMJHL, OHL) or college hockey, both D3 and D1, or semi-pro (ECHL, WHL) and above.

    When u guys were testing the flex of the stick maybe wrong because different sticks have different flex points and players get the one that fits their style of play. I like taking quick shots and getting a quick release on the puck so the flex point for my stick is near the bottom of the stick, closer to the blade. Vice - versa for people who like to load up on their shots and what not. And some sticks are not well balanced as well, Some sticks that are expensive, their balance point would be in the middle, It will be different for cheaper sticks.

    The same thing happens when you cast a fishing lure. You load the rod with the weight of a lure, then release the load, and let the rod throw the lure into the lake. The whippier the rod, the less weight it takes to load it, but too whippy a rod, and you lose distance because you don't get all the energy from your arm action.

  • @lancerd4934

    There are also variations in fishing rods because different sections of rod have different amounts of flex, hence the terms fast, medium and slow action to describe how the flex profile along the length of the rod varies between rods. These factors are especially important to fly fishers as they use the weight of the line to slowly feed out the line over multiple false casts, so it is necessary to have a rod that is flexible enough to store lots of energy, elastic enough to release that energy quickly when you need it, and stiff enough to resist the momentum of the line to keep it aerialised on the return swing. Would probably make for a good video once the weather warms up.

    I've done some math for fun but the blinking exit sign is due to the electric grid running at 60hz. The high speed camera is running at 1200 frames per second. Slowed down to 24 frames per second video is 50 times slower. Power is cycling forward and backwards 60 times a second. Slowed down 50 times you get a cycle every 1.2 second. During each cycle the light will flash twice, once on the positive voltage, once on the negative voltage. So while playing this video, every .6 second the exit sign should flash.

    The only difference I imagine is the lighting being brighter, due to the much faster shutter speed, and something that doesn't have a flicker. Though our eyes might not see it, it's sometimes noticeable with fluorescent lights on a camera, even at normal speeds; I assume it's due to the shutter and flicker are out of sync, making a compounded effect. With high speed, it would be even more noticeable.

    I would really like to see a slow-mo of a trick-shot I was allowed to do on a pool table with an old cloth. Rack up the balls like you normally would (but make sure the rack is one solid mass, in other words by extra careful that all the balls touch their neighbours), set the cue-ball deadcentre to the rack (normal break-off distance) and launch it with as much topspin as you can manage. If all goes well, the cue-ball will hit the first ball of the rack dead-centre, bounce backwards while still spinning (because the balls' direction is now reversed, it is now back-spinning). The cue-ball will leave a trail of smoke when bouncing off the rack (as long as it doesn't bounce upwards). Backspin + speed of the ball will make the bottom go so fast relative to the cloth that it burns the cloth in a very narrow strip. Investigating the cloth afterwards, it will look like it was cut with a knife. The cloth is ruined so do this just before changing an old cloth for a new one.

    Re-watching this since it came back up in my feed and thought I would comment on the flex testing SmarterEveryDay did. An additional constraint when testing flex numbers is that sticks are built with different flex points. Generally, a defense man's stick will have a mid-flex point, where a forward will have a lower flex point. The lower flex point helps with a quicker release for shots like a wrist shot or a snap shot, where a mid flex helps with a heavy shot like a slap shot. Any flex testing would need to take this into consideration to be accurate.
