Do RL1210 and RKL HiPe composite sticks use different tips?

Yes, it is crucial to use the correct tip when replacing a composite stick. Ensure that retailers provide you with the right tip, or confirm that they’re replacing it with the correct one if they're handling the replacement. The primary difference between the two tips is that the RKL HiPe tip features a thinner, machined stem, which fits precisely into the tapered shaft of the composite stick. You might notice that the replacement RKL HiPe tips have a circular design for glue application, while the RL1210 replacement tips typically have a ground groove on the stem to facilitate glue and friction. Both tips weigh approximately 32 grams.

How do I replace a tip?

To remove the existing tip, you’ll need a hairdryer or heat gun. Hold the hairdryer about 6 inches away from the tip and heat it for about 30 seconds (be careful not to overheat or burn the stick). Once heated, pull the tip out using pliers or by wearing a gardening glove for a better grip. To insert the new tip, use a standard glue gun with regular glue. Apply glue into the grooves on all four sides of the tip. Insert the tip into the end of the shaft, turning the stick so the end faces downward. Gently tap the stick on the floor to ensure the tip stem is fully inserted. Allow the excess glue to dry for about 30 seconds, then carefully remove the dried glue.

What is the difference in the RL1210 and RKL HiPe sticks?

The RL1210 stick features a 6061 alloy aluminum shaft for minimal flex and high durability, available in Junior (44") and Senior (58") sizes, with the Senior weighing 442 grams. The RKL HiPe stick is built for elite players, made with high tensile graphite composite for optimized flex, improved accuracy, and an ultra-lightweight 377-gram design, available in Senior (58") only. Both sticks include a replaceable wear-resistant nylon tip with an aggressive reversing rib for better ring control, and the HiPe stick is customizable and backed by a 45-day warranty.

Can I customize both RL1210 and RKL HiPe sticks?

Yes, all Chance sticks, including the RL1210 and RKL HiPe models, are fully customizable and open to new design options.

What is the difference between “Customize” and “New Design” when ordering a stick?

Customize: This option allows you to add a combination of the player's name, number, team logo, and sponsor logos to the existing color schemes of the stick. New Design: With this option, you can create a completely new color scheme and design for the stick, along with the player’s name, number, team logo, and sponsor logos. To discuss your new design, we recommend scheduling a call. You can also send any questions or ideas to [email protected]. Please note: It is your responsibility to ensure you have the rights to use your Association’s logo.

What is the Warranty on the sticks?

Chance Ringette offers a warranty that covers any defective sticks within 45 days of the original purchase date. To initiate a warranty claim, please contact [email protected], explaining the defect and including a clear picture of the issue. Be sure to provide the model, purchase date, and the location where the stick was bought.

What is the flex on the sticks?

The RL1210 aluminum shaft has little to no flex, providing a more rigid and durable feel. The RKL HiPe stick features a flex of 3.60, offering a more responsive and flexible performance.

What is the shipping cost and time to deliver?

Shipping costs are determined based on the customer's shipping location. Non-Customized sticks: Typically shipped within 7 days in Canada. Customized sticks: Typically shipped within 14 days in Canada. For a more accurate shipping quote, please provide your shipping address at checkout.

Can a Chance tip be used in any other manufacturers ringette sticks (or vice versa)?

No, each manufacturer’s stick and tip must be used together. According to Ringette Canada regulations, both the shaft and the tip must be clearly marked by the manufacturer to indicate they are compatible parts from the same brand. Using mismatched parts would render the stick illegal for play, void the warranty, and could potentially lead to liability issues.

Can you use a Chance wrap over any other manufacturers ringette stick?

No, similar to the tip, you cannot use a Chance wrap over a stick from another manufacturer. It is important not to obscure any manufacturer's identification on the product, especially when there are mating or replaceable parts. Doing so would make the stick illegal for play.
