Rocket Hockey S2 (Shaft Only)

A street hockey shaft has a difficult job. It needs to feel light enough for quick hands, strong enough for driveway battles, and adaptable enough to fit the player. The Rocket Hockey S2 Shaft uses basalt fiber to strike that balance.

What is basalt fiber?

Basalt is volcanic rock. To make basalt fiber, the rock is melted and drawn into fine continuous fibers that can be used in composite products. For a hockey shaft, that creates an alternative to a heavy wooden construction while keeping the solid, responsive feel players expect.

The practical benefit is simple: less unnecessary weight in the hands. A lighter shaft can be easier to move through stickhandling, passing, and shooting motions, especially during a long afternoon outside.

Built for quick street hockey play

The S2 has a 55-flex profile. It is designed for recreational street hockey players who want a lightweight shaft that still feels controlled during normal play. The full-length shaft can also be cut to fit the player, making it useful for growing kids, teenagers, and adults.

Fit matters. A stick that is much too long can make puck or ball control awkward, while one that is too short can force an uncomfortable posture. Before cutting a shaft, have the player stand in their usual footwear and confirm the desired length. Measure carefully: material can always be removed, but it cannot be added back.

Why a replaceable-blade system makes sense

Street hockey naturally wears down the part of the stick that touches asphalt or concrete. A two-piece design separates that high-wear component from the shaft. When the blade eventually needs replacement, the player can keep the shaft rather than replacing the complete stick.

The S2 is made to pair with the Rocket Hockey 2.0 Sparking Blade. Together they form the Rocket Hockey Spark Stick, which uses patent-pending Firestone technology to create real sparks when the blade makes proper contact with asphalt or concrete.

This modular approach is especially useful for families. The shaft stays familiar in the player’s hands, while the blade can be replaced when normal outdoor wear calls for it. Players can also choose a left- or right-handed blade without changing the shaft.

Who is the S2 shaft for?

The S2 is suitable for kids age 6 and up, teenagers, and adults who play recreational street hockey. It is intended for outdoor play with an appropriate street hockey ball on asphalt or concrete. It is not a substitute for equipment designed and certified for ice hockey.

Players under 14 should use the product with adult supervision. Eye protection and normal street hockey safety gear are strongly recommended. Before every game, inspect the shaft and blade connection and stop using any component that is cracked, loose, or damaged.

Choosing between the shaft and complete stick

Choose the S2 shaft on its own if you already have a compatible Rocket Hockey blade or need to replace only the shaft. Choose the complete Spark Stick if you want the S2 shaft and sparking blade assembled as a ready-to-play system.

The bottom line

A great street hockey stick should encourage players to stay outside, move more, and keep playing. The basalt-fiber S2 shaft is built around that idea: light in the hands, easy to size, and reusable with a replaceable blade. Pair it with the Rocket Hockey 2.0 blade for the full sparking experience.
