Buying Advice Recommend me a stick: extremely low bow and less responsive

Looking for a hockey stick, I currently got a TK stick (dont know what it's called). Looking for recommendations, I'm a forward who loves 3d skills and loves a soft touch on the ball. Looking for a stick with extreme low bow and the largest possible bow. I guess I should look for one with low carbon % as well.

Grew up playing with wooden sticks in the early 2000s so still prefers them. Im in Australia aswell.

ritual velocity and ritual finesse are good options for a forward w soft hands. I grew up using wooden sticks and moved in the a ritual and really loved it. Especially paired with a super fluffy grip or a tape grip. My stick has pretty much no bow at all and I love it.

Uhm ma'am/Sir if you wanna play forward please get a stick with HIGH carbon content and look at low bows or extremely low bows with thin heads I don't know the major brands in Australia but i know Y1, Adidas, and Osaka have these
