Elite CKF90 (2023) - 90% Carbon, Ultimate & Xtreme Bend Options
Elite CKF90 (2023) - 90% Carbon, Ultimate & Xtreme Bend Options
2023 legacy model. The Elite CKF90 remains a valid Mercian choice where the player's fit, specialist bend requirement and preference for a direct, powerful 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: 36.5-inch and 37.5-inch lengths.
- Bend: Ultimate low bend at 24.5mm/200mm or Xtreme specialist shape, depending on the remaining variant.
- Response: Direct / Powerful.
Construction and feel
90% carbon construction with a fibreglass micro-skeleton, Kevlar reinforcement and vibration-control materials. Carbon percentage describes construction and response; it is not a player-level score.
Trade-off: choose the specialist bend only when it materially helps the skills you use, then compare legacy price and live size/bend availability.

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.
