By James Hayes


Having better control and grip on the hockey twig is the dream of every hockey player. A proper grip allows the player to be in good control with the stick when playing. To achieve this, the player should choose the best stick wax from the many varieties that are on sale everywhere. Other than the normal body balance during playing, choice of the best wax could help the player achieve a successful game.

This article is going to highlight some of the most common and important brands of polish that the players would like to know about. There is one called A and R wax-on. It is manufactured by a company bearing the same name as the product. This company has a good reputation for manufacturing such products, and it is highly ranked than the others.

Howie products are also of good quality. This product is cheaply available and relatively affordable. This product is more versatile than any other type mentioned here. Its price is also low and easily affordable. Therefore up to this point, all the players and stakeholders out there know exactly what kind they might go for.

The other type is known as Proguard Carded Blade Butter manufactured by a firm that has the same name as the product. This is the most expensive brand available in the market whose reputation is good and it recommendable for use more than the cheaper ones.

There is another kind, known as Mojo. This is the thinnest in the market, and it is the cheapest. Despite its cost, this kind of lubricant is very effective and efficient for players. It has a smooth texture. There is another one which is closely related to Mojo regarding price and qualities, and it is known as Gulf.

Hockey sticks used for ice hockey are of two types. The goalies and player sticks. They, therefore, require different types of lubrication. The sticks have different shapes and designs. For these reasons, the types of waxes used on them are also slightly different. The goalie requires a slightly better type than the rest of the players. The one used by the goalie is a bit complicated since he plays a more important role thus requires an even better grip.

The benefits of wax in this sport are vast. Other than the few ones mentioned earlier, the following are some of the most important ones. Waterproofing of the tape on the sticks, enhances and makes the control of a puck very efficient, makes the shooting more accurate, enables players to achieve customized levels of tackiness giving them more grip ability. And finally, it increases the resistance of your sticks to ice build-up or accumulation of snow.

All the mentioned types have all these advantages associated with them, but again they have their different limitations and disadvantages. This is why you should choose one that suits your needs when playing. The company that you also choose to work with has an important role as not all companies can manufacture the right hockey sticks.
