The Lamplighter Hockey Stick Weight is a training device designed to increase shot velocity, stick handling skills, and upper body strength.
The weight is placed inside the shaft of the hockey stick. First, the plug needs to be removed, then the weight can be inserted into the stick during training. The weight can remain in the stick or be removed for continued practice or game play.
The video shows a Squirt age hockey player shooting pucks without the weight. Then he inserts it and continues to shoot more pucks. Then he removes it. The purpose of this demonstration is to show how easily the weight can be inserted and removed. It also demonstrates how the weight doesn't affect the ability of the stick to be used for shooting while the weight is in place.
How to choose the weight size:
* 1/2 pound stick weight suited for 8U and Mites
* 1 pound stick weight is suitable for all ages
* 2 pound stick weight is suitable for stronger hockey players, ages 13+
