Genesis CF25 (2023)
Genesis CF25 (2023)
2023 legacy model. The Genesis CF25 remains a valid Mercian choice where the player's fit, Pro shape and preference for a softer / balanced response match. It is previous-generation stock: price and remaining availability are purchase trade-offs, not reasons for suitability.
How it fits the Mercian choice system
- Fit: 34-inch, 35-inch, 36.5-inch and 37.5-inch lengths.
- Bend: Pro-listed shape; the exact profile varies with length in this 2023 model, so check the remaining variant.
- Response: Softer / Balanced — forgiveness and touch remain prominent, with more structure and energy return than the softest constructions.
Construction and feel
25% carbon over a predominantly fibreglass construction with vibration-control materials. It combines a softer touch with more stiffness and energy return than lower-carbon Genesis constructions. Carbon percentage is a construction fact, not a player-level score.
Trade-off: confirm the size and bend of the live variant first, then compare legacy price with current alternatives.

Outdoor choice starts with fit and the hockey you actually play. Bend, shape and construction should explain a useful difference, not create a good-better-best ladder.
Position, player level and carbon percentage can help describe a stick, but none of them automatically decides what suits you.
