Ritual Response 75 Junior Hockey Stick (2026/2027)

The Ritual Response 75 is an elite-level field hockey stick designed for traditional, purist players who favor upright hitting, hard slapping, and structural stability. While the Velocity, Ultra, and Specialist ranges favor aggressive, low-bow curves for extreme aerials, the Response range focuses on a smoother, more traditional profile that maximizes passing accuracy and hitting surface area.

Key Features

• Smooth Mid-to-Late Bow: Features a balanced 24mm curve positioned higher up the shaft at a 300mm point from the head. This gentler, more gradual bow profile is designed to keep hits flat, preventing the ball from lifting unintentionally during heavy drives and slaps.

• 75% Carbon Construction: Crafted with a composite blend of 75% premium Japanese carbon, 20% fiberglass, and 5% Kevlar. This formulation offers excellent stiffness for generating high ball speeds on hits, while retaining a responsive "touch" for clean trapping and control.

• Straight Handle Design: Unlike low-bow sticks that angle forward, the Response features a straighter handle-to-shaft alignment. This maximizes the comfort and ergonomics of a traditional upright playing stance, making it a favorite for central midfielders and defenders.

• Vibration Shielding: Includes Ritual's Triple-Layer Handle System paired with an AntiShock EVA foam wrap beneath the grip to absorb the sting of hard impacts and heavy slap shots.

• Silica Face Texture: The head is finished with a textured Silica face coating, enhancing friction to prevent the ball from sliding off the face during receiving and quick distribution.
