Field Hockey Stick Breakage

STICK BREAKAGE
Each year, as we release the new Dita Stick Ranges, we make our final report on how in the past year our sticks have held up.

The field hockey stick industry accepts a 5% breakage rate as acceptable. Statistically, the rate should actually be under 3% .

In recent years, certain well-known brand name sticks have experienced outrageous breakage rates far higher than the industry standard.

At Dita, we are proud to say our breakage rate is under 1% for 2015.
To those few whose defective sticks we replaced, we once more say we are sorry.
To the 99% of Dita players who played all year with a happy stick,
we say: THE 2016 DITA STICKS ARE EVEN BETTER.

We look forward to an even higher satisfaction rate this season.

A friendly reminder: BUY ONLY FROM AUTHORIZED DITA USA RETAILERS. Those retailers have their 2016 sticks in stock, now.
When you buy from a retailer on this list you get the
REAL, TRUE, DITA GENIUS stick with a warranty. Not a sleazy
off-shore knock-off. Dita USA does not warranty replica, fake, counterfeit, or sticks purchased through eBay, Amazon, or off-shore outlets.

Plaid Field Hockey Sticks???

Look through the keyhole at details of the 2016 Dita Limited Edition RETRO models coming in June, exclusively at Dita USA Authorized retailers.

Two GIGA sticks, the BLUE PLAID and the RED PLAID are light years ahead of our previous GIGA models, not only with brilliant graphics, but with the best ball handling and forgiveness and durability.

Four stunning models make up the exclusive and technologically advanced TERRA RETRO line. The 2016 TERRA RETRO has faux wood-grain graphics on the highest tech composite sticks, a salute to the Olde Daze of wooden sticks. Yet, the TERRA RETRO sticks play as if from the FUTURE.

Well, they are from the future. The FUTURE arrives in June.

 

Strange Name For A Responsive Field Hockey Stick

You have to admit, it is an odd name for a field hockey stick.
It is different, that is for sure.  But a name is not everything.
What matters is how YOU feel with the stick in your hands and
a ball on the end of your new stick.

Some report that this may be the best ball control stick ever.
Watch the video and maybe decide that you have to try
this stick yourself.
