Description
Green Biscuit Training Hockey Pucks are designed to simulate the feel of real-ice hockey pucks and comes in 2 types, Original and Snipe. Both the Original and the Snipe feature a two piece design that is intended to absorb vibrations, making the puck glide on concrete, asphalt, and other surfaces...
User reviews
These are surprisingly good pucks for using outside in the street. I've used it for a short time just to stick handle in the driveway & having a sauce toss with a friend, also in the drive way. I have to say, we were both VERY impressed by how well this thing landed after being saucered & didn't roll over or anything. On a relatively smooth outdoor surface, this puck handles very well & has pretty decent weight to it as well which is nice. It slides easily & naturally, & won't really roll on you like just about any other puck would outdoors.The only con I would say is that this puck is not built to last whatsoever. It's a really cool design & it works well, but we probably used this puck for all of an hour yesterday & it looks extremely beat up. I bought both the stickhandling puck and the shooting puck & haven't gotten to use the shooting one yet - but I can't imagine it would hold up for very long if you were shooting at a real net. It feels like if this thing were to hit iron with any decent force behind it, it would just shatter & you'd be left picking up pieces.All of that said, just throwing sauce with the normal green one, it comes off of your stick really nicely & naturally. I really like it, but I think you'd have to buy a whole lot of these things if you wanted to really use them all the time. Great product, just not all that durable. I'll probably buy a few more for this summer because I really like the way it slides & doesn't flip, & we really like to toss sauce.
Great puck for outdoor use. As Street balls have their benefit, but it's nice to be able to use a puck to better simulate ice hockey play.I play/practice on fairly rough concrete with cracks everywhere. These pucks will flip over when passing over a crack if passing, but stick-handling over a crack has a surprisingly high success rate.I have used both the original + snipe versions. The original glides across concrete really well, better than anything I've ever used in puck form, but they do feel fragile; been using them for months without breaking one tough (just stick to stick-handling and passing and you should be fine). As for the snipe version, they don't glide as well as the original and are made from a slightly softer material. They do last a while depending on how hard your shoot is and what they are hitting if not the net, post, or keeper. They do wear down over time for hitting hard surfaces, as the area in the holes around the bolts wear down to the point where tips of the bolts become bigger than the holes keeping them in place.
First of all my kid is only 6 but he's got outdoor sticks, wooden sticks, composite sticks, knee sticks, etc. If the kid isn't at school he's got a stick in his hand and these are wonderful...he always has them in his bag and they are taken out before practice, after practice, to work on positioning drills outside, to pretend he's Kane...ha ha ha These slide really well on almost any smooth surface. They give you a puck feel instead of bouncing like the tennis balls or outdoor hockey balls. They are really well weighted and hold up impressively well on concrete and asphalt. We love ours, we've ordered some for our fellow hockey players, and we strongly recommend them!
