YEW! Black Out Bar™

Extreme Grip + Black Puck Camouflage

Black Out Bar is a black hockey wax engineered for players who want maximum control and visual advantage.

It is designed to darken your tape for puck camouflage while delivering the most aggressive grip in hockey.

This is not an everyday wax.

This is a special-situations tool, used intentionally by skilled players.

What the Black Out Bar Does

Black Out Bar applies a deep black coating to white or black tape that players use to:

• Camouflage the puck

• Create visual distraction for goalies

• Produce black streaking on the blade

• Track where shots are releasing most consistently

At the same time, it adds extreme natural tack, increasing friction between the puck and blade for enhanced control, confidence, and repeatability.

⸻

The Modern Alternative to Using a Puck

For decades, players have scraped black pucks on their tape to:

• Hide the puck

• Add visual noise

• Gain a subtle handling advantage

Black Out Bar achieves the same effect — cleaner, longer-lasting, and more controlled.

It applies evenly, stays consistent, and avoids the dirt and bacteria that come from rubbing a puck on ice or rink floors.

⸻

Grip, Control & Confidence

The high-tack formula:

• Improves puck retention

• Makes skilled dekes and stick tricks feel more consistent

• Helps certain moves feel easier and more repeatable with proper technique

Like Supertack, the added friction can also:

• Increase puck spin rates

• Improve shot accuracy

• Enhance perceived shot velocity through better energy transfer

For advanced players, consistency builds confidence — and confidence changes how you play.

⸻

Adjustable Tack — You’re in Control

Black Out Bar is extremely sticky, but application amount determines feel.

• Light application → black puck camo with a cleaner feel

• Medium to heavy application → maximum grip for advanced play

If you don’t want extreme tack, simply apply less.

A small amount goes a long way.

⸻

Recommended Application

Light

• Puck tracking

• Puck control 

• Precision release & Spin Rate

Medium–Heavy

• Skilled dekes

• Stick tricks

• High-pressure, open ice, quarterbacking behind the net, shootouts, skill competitions 

⸻

Pro Tips

• Bring on the bench

• For easier use, pull the bar halfway out of the box and apply directly

• Use the black wax to mark blade zones and visually track shot-release points

⸻

Clean, Natural & Skin-Safe

Like all YEW! waxes, Black Out Bar is:

• All-natural

• Non-petroleum

• Beeswax-based

• Free from harsh solvents

***Because it is extremely tacky, light residue may transfer to hands with heavy application.

This is harmless — beeswax forms a natural barrier that can actually help protect skin from rink grime.

If desired, simply wash hands with soap and water.

⸻

Parent Reassurance

Black Out Bar is safe when used as directed.

It contains no petroleum products, no toxic adhesives, and no harsh chemicals. It is applied only to the stick blade and is not absorbed through skin.

For younger players or first-time users, we recommend light application only until they are comfortable with the feel. Coaches and parents can feel confident that Black Out Bar is a clean, controlled alternative to scraping dirty pucks on tape.

Sustainability Commitment

Black Out Bar is packaged using minimal-waste materials designed for long product life and controlled application. The bar can be partially exposed from the box to reduce unnecessary handling and packaging waste.

Like all YEW! products, Black Out Bar is developed with sustainability, durability, and responsible material use in mind — without sacrificing performance.
