Kookaburra Pro Elite 98 Hockey Stick
The Kookaburra Pro Elite 98 Hockey Stick is a high-performance field hockey stick built for advanced and representative players competing in New Zealand. It’s designed for attacking players and drag flickers who rely on precision, aerial control, and fast ball movement.
This is a serious match stick. With 98% forged carbon and Kookaburra’s most advanced LB215R profile, it delivers explosive power with tight control when the game speeds up.
Built for Advanced Skill Execution
The LB215R profile features an engineered ridge for added structural stability. That ridge stiffens the stick through the hitting zone, giving you cleaner energy transfer on slap hits, drag flicks, and long aerials.
With a 215mm aggressive low bow, the head sits lower to the turf. That helps lift the ball cleanly for 3D skills, reverse stick shots, and overhead passes. If you’re playing midfield or up front and need quick hands and sharp execution, this shape supports that style.
At 98% forged carbon, the stick feels crisp and powerful. You get strong rebound on shots and fast ball speed, but it’s less forgiving than mid carbon sticks. It suits experienced players who consistently strike the sweet spot.
The Dual Core construction balances that stiffness with controlled handling, while the Pro EVA grip provides secure, cushioned feel in both dry and wet conditions.
