The CODE Photon 1 is Sherwood's full senior-length answer for the player who shoots often and shoots hard. The Hybrid 2 flex profile stores energy low and releases it fast, so pucks leave the blade quickly whether you are ripping one from the circle or snapping it off the rush. A complete aerospace-grade carbon build keeps swing weight down through a long shift, and the reinforced high-load zones stand up to senior-level board battles and blocked shots.

• Hybrid 2 flex profile - an evolution of the hybrid kick point, with an enhanced hinge for a faster, more precise release on high shots and a stiffer power hosel for battles along the boards.

• Blackline NXT shaft and blade shell - micro-thin plies of aerospace-grade carbon fibre laid in an optimised sequence for high strength and consistent flex.

• Featherlite XT balance point set higher on the shaft for quicker hands and faster shot speed.

• R-Shape shaft with square corners, engineered for optimal vertical and horizontal flex and efficient energy transfer through the shot.

• VR92 blade with dampening material across the face and reinforced heel and toe to cut vibration and raise impact resistance.

• Two 3D-raised tactile grip zones - linear for the upper hand and corner for the lower hand - to minimise stick rotation through the release.
