Bauer's 2026 GSX goalie stick offers goalies just starting out in the crease, or looking for a reliable backup, consistent all-around performance in a budget-friendly package, backed by the durability to last several seasons.
Paddle & Blade
Carbon-Glass Paddle w/ Expancel® Core: The 2026 GSX stick's paddle is built from a hefty carbon-fiberglass composite blend, enhanced with an Expancel® expanding foam injection that, in combination, delivers a solid sense of confidence and consistency with every skate.
Round Toe Blade w/ Expancel® Core: A rounded blade profile complements the weighty consistency of the GSX stick's paddle, quickening its low-end response through a wider range of motion compared to a square toe blade.
Shaft & Shoulder
28" (71.1 cm) Reinforced Carbon-Glass Shaft: Above the paddle, the 2026 GSX goalie stick continues its solid, dependable consistency with a 28" short shaft constructed from the same highly-durable carbon-glass composite blend. On the ice, the GSX stick's 28" short shaft gives it a quick, responsive feel in the hand while its foam-injected carbon-glass paddle gives puck contacts a predictable consistency.
Traditional Shoulder: Familiar to any goalie, the 2026 GSX stick controls from a traditional shaft-shoulder profile, giving the blocker hand powerful, yet balanced leverage over the stick's paddle-blade.
The budget-friendly GSX lineup’s highly durable construction and consistent all-around performance make it an excellent entry point or backup option for goalies of all levels.
Measurements: Manufacturers do not typically offer sizing guidelines for goalie sticks as individual play styles, stances, comfort preferences, and body dimensions vary widely.
Fitting: As a general guideline, start with a stick in the same age group (Youth, Junior, Intermediate, or Senior) as the rest of your equipment. Then, refer your height against the above table to find a generally recommended paddle length.
