I have only played a few games and through the summer, but so far I love it. It isn't like a regular crankshaft. It gives it a little whip but the cradling is just like a regular shaft. Great buy but wait becuase they are making different models. |

 | - MAflack25 9/11/10 reply
If ur gettin this wait a few months cuz there making em in a bunch of new metals like scandium and titanium |
|
 | - falconsmid14 8/31/10 reply
you dont really notice the tilt. you just gotta get used to it . all yuo gotta do is throw off a wall for an hour or so but it takes alot of whip off of your stick so when you hit the wall bring some extra shooters and whip strings and it feels wierd cradeling with one hand in my opinion so i dont reccoment this for attack
|
|
 | - rambo421 8/29/10 reply
is it harder to cradle with? does it make it more like a crankshaft? |

The STX Katana is a very light weighted shaft it might bend but the gait ice is a shaft is a shaft that will not bend at all. i have never see one bend in my life. But if u do get the STX katana it will take some t ime to get use to it because it is a very lite shaft |
|
 |  |  | - alexmul11992ROWLAx 3/04/13 reply
the gait ice is absolutely dreadful terrible, didnt make it through half a season before bending and denting |

clutchx....... its better and the same price as super power |
|
 |  | - avince 9/09/10 reply
what makes the clutch x better? i like to face off some, would the super power be good for that? I want to take some shots too so.... |
|
|
|
 | - nyhuis 8/02/10 reply
im thinking of getting this with the brine clutch x or the super power what would be better with it |
|
 | - Sasaia19 7/31/10 reply
To those of you who think this shaft is heavy, need to just stop playing lax because this thing is incredibly light, I got this from the NCAA Bracket contest with the Revolver head, It's perfect. I've used teammates Wonder Boys and what not. I still prefer this. Only, well, nit picky complaint, is with the 10 degree bend on it, you have to take that into account with anything your doing stickworking. And yes, it cranks a shot like NO other. |
|
|
 |  |  | - Sasaia19 8/08/10 reply
I don't know. I'm buying a Scandium Pro for my birthday with a proton power head so I can get back to you then, if you can wait. And to correct myself, the Katana has a 2 degree bend, not 10. |
|
 | - LaX UnIvErSe 7/28/10 reply
im getting a new shaft soon and i want to know what is better the scandium pro or the katana?? please answer |
|
|
 |  | - Zacharylaxer 8/03/10 reply
The katana is pretty much the same weidght. i have both of them and by far the katana is sicker and gives u more torque. Katana and scandium pro are the beest shafts out there. STX rocks all other companies |
|
 | - legz 7/26/10 reply
yes its porpusly bent for more torqu( power behind the shaft)........ amazing stick!!! but the ratings are off |
|
|
 | - phillywings3 7/22/10 reply
ok i bend a lot of shafts so i want this but the scandium version do u think i should get it anyone know if it bends |
|
|
|
|
|
 |  | - LaxMaster750 7/18/10 reply
YOu cannot do this for facing-off... it has a 3 degree bend... i would suggest a dolomite diamond or a titan pro |
|
 |  |  | - cusefan4life 7/19/10 reply
you can use it for faceoffs. i use it when i go fogo sometimes |
|
 | - LaX UnIvErSe 7/14/10 reply
this shaft is not worth the money. if you want a stick that is super light and strong you should get the stx scandium pro. it is way better than this and is light and stronger |
|
 | - laxerbeast20 7/12/10 reply
i cant belive that they dont have the katana scandium versoin because i have it but i swar its real its the same color but after katana it has SC but i swar on the bible its real plus its a little bit lighter and a little bit tougher |
|
 |  | - packlax38 7/27/10 reply
and i saw it before but what do you think is a pretty good head for it because im getting it in like a couple weeks |
|
 |  | - Silly Filly 85 8/09/10 reply
yeah i just got a katana sc at my local lax store. so happy i found it all the other shafts were old kryprtolyets and stx/warrior sticks. so far its beast |
|
 | - lebanonlax 7/12/10 reply
This head is very light and adds soooooo much torque (snap) to my shot i play attack/middie and this is the best shaft. NO DPOLE! NOT DURABLE ENOUGH!!!! GOOD GOALIE |
|
 | - legz 7/12/10 reply
ratings are wrong atleast 4.8 on everything becaus i tried a bunch of lite shaftes and this was the lightest grip amazing duribilaty not as god as the others but close
this does kick @$$- legz's friend name not valid to show
( because you will stock me)

 |  | - laxerbeast20 7/12/10 reply
this shaft is made for shooting and a goalie is never shooting plus it might be a bit heaver behind u cuz a goalie head is so heavy and u have the 10 degree bend so? |
|
|
 | - laxingking12 6/23/10 reply
is it worth paying 30 moire bucks to gert the katana scandium?
like, wats the difference? |
|
 |  | - middierific 6/29/10 reply
they both have that gradual bend in the shaft.
the difference is the katana is made out 7075 alloy, which is not good material, and the katana scandium, which is a durable and insanely light material. the katana scandium is lighter and more durable

|
 | - Ryanb1115 6/23/10 reply
this is nice if you can get use to the bend if not it screw up your throw and your shot completely |

does this shaft and the proton power make a good combnation for youth lacrosse and is good for scoring goal and takking faceoffs? also would it be easy to throw accurate and fast passes? |
|
 |  | - Zacharylaxer 6/16/10 reply
A shaft doesnt make much of a difference for face offs its just ur preference. The katana and proton power would be a sick combo. It throws really fast. |

 | - JoeWalters1 5/10/10 reply
For you guys that are getting this to put on your old head, it reduces whip so you will need to add more whip to your stick. Also it is about 1.25inches longer than normal shafts |
