Lacrosse Equipment and Gear

Hey i'm new to lacrosse and I'm going to play d. I want to get this head, and what shaft do u recommend with it?

get the steel 7000

I recommend the X caliber head though a bit more expensive its my favorite head. I have run several middie backs with it and its very tough!

is this easy to pinch??

This or swarm x... Is this good for face offs or defense

If you play d and your looking for a head under $70 get the protonU. For LSM it is ok you might want a little more pinched head in my opinion. Bottom line Amazing head!!!!!!

What mesh does pro string come with

yes

Im pretty sure it is aloud in NFHS if its aloud in NCAA

It says under the head NFHS/NCAA legal

# 44 for Johns Hopkins uses this head also the some players of UNC use this head for defense I would not get this ead for any other postion but D

Ive got this on one of my poles and I also have an x10 and I gotta say I like this a little better than the x10. its stiff, easy to string and I like the wieght of it. It's on a pole what do I need a light head for? also it scoops really well

This or Proton U? I play LSM and D and i want something with more pinch than the x10.

This or the BlueprintX?

this head is ok. it is kinda heavy and it is kinda stiff for like half a season and then starts to bend. but for the price it is good. also what i did was when itr started to bend just change heads for a little and and then put it back on and it was a little better.

can i make my own coclors on the stringing?

Is this good for middie

no not at all. its a close defensive head

this x10,or edge which one

Is this head good for offense for a midfielder in transition

never mind got it and strung it... throws like a dream.

is this one easy to string?

Great head for D, sooooo stiff. My poke checks make all of the wimpy attack drop the ball. A little heavy on my swizzle but still great for gbs and catching/throwing. Dont pick this if u run up alot and try to dodge, its too wide for that.

please respond for edge or proton you for d

i would personally vouch for the proton u, ive never used or seen a blueprint before, looks pretty nice though, i dont like the edge though, its kinda overated, the u is pretty decent, and its cheaper than the blueprint. idk its up to you, i play both lsm and full d, and it gets me through, it warped a wee bit though this summer cuz ive been playing non stop since june

should i get this or the blueprint for closed and lsm?

go with this, it is wider than the blueprint which makes catching so much easier, especially with a dpole and its one of the stiffest d heads out there

i got this head like six months ago and i love it, if u play defense u should definitly get it, but the only thing is u hav to string it right, especially with six dimond, and also all my shooting with it has it warped to the left a wee bit, but its a good head, and it really has stepped up my playing ability n' stuff, and all my coaches noticed, so... :-)

is this a good head to get, cause it is between this and the edge

I'd say they're about equal. I prefer the Proton U, but after and really sunny the Edge might be a little tiny bit stiffer. Not much of a difference in stiffness though.

whats better for Defense proton u of evo 2.0

they r about equal

Not at all. The Proton U is much better.

i agree with bellefontelax, this is up there for the best D heads and it is cheap. evo is not for D... ANY EVO! i hate it when peopel try to use evos for D, i want to deck my own team sometimes

decent head for d

one of the stiffest heads on the market but a little too wide for my liking

this head may seem to be runoff...but no. get this head its good. i know some really dirty kids who use this and they love it. this head is actually legit believe it or not

yea i know a 2 time all american who uses it

I can't decide which head to get for defense: proton u, x10 or xcalibur, or is there anything better for 75 or under

I have both of those heads. personally, i like the proton u way more than the x10. before this head, my starting head was the x10, and it cracked on both sides where the plastic is molded together. the proton u is really stiff, but there are not that many stringing holes compared to the x10. your choice, but i would goo with the proton u.

the edge is one of the best d heads and its is around $50 i think but if it is out of those choices i would say excaliber only the x10 is not that good and i have never used the proton u

i play defense im between this xcalibur x10 and clutch

x10 dude. i use it. the other two starting guys on my team used the clutch. but overall the x10 is probablly better. if u want more pinch use the xcalibur

THIS HEAD SUCKS

i love this head

i had this for a year and it got warped and i cant bend it back but it also broke right at the top..

I have this as my gamer for LSM. First poke check and it folded over and I've been trying to flex it back to original. Poor showing.

to face off

This is one of the stiffest heads out there, so no.

I'm a mid/att and i take face off. i am going to high school next year and I'm going to play lax there. I'm replacing my old stick, and my parents don't want me blowing too much $$$. it looks good, and its a proton, but the ratings aren't great, any thoughts? also, I'm looking at a kryptolyte shaft. just looking for advice.

im looking at the deuce, proton/ super power, CLUTCH, or cobra x

Get the proton power or super power the are good for face offs.

my friend has a cobra x with 5 shooters 3 v's 2 straights and bottom is 12 holes in and out works great and is super light put it on a debair 803 ice it's beast

the duece suks, it shouldnt be in tht list

you should get the blueprint head it like $65 and maybe the wonderboy shaft

this is a defensive head which is why it rated not so well, wen using this for defense, this is a very good head, but otherwise, its not so good

is this head good with six diamond? im not sure if i should get six diamond cuz im a d pole midi

the pinch gets widder

i'm d-pole and this looks awesome. any other suggestions for a d-pole?

if you want a wide head this an edge, and the x10 are prob your best bets...

revo x and revo 2 r both pretty good too and alot less heavy

x10 is awesome

Will this fit the maverik gravity.

Will this fit the maverik gravity????

Will this fit on the Warrior Krypto Pro Diamond 10 shaft?

How wide is this head compared to the super power? I need a backup and 90 for the super power is too much to spend twice.

this head iis good for defense, but its way to heavy for attack or middi, u should get a evo or revo if u want something good and kinda cheap

This head is soooooooo wide. Actually a decent head, my friend has it and if strung correctly still has good hold but the thing is at least 100X wider than the superpower. If you want a good back up I'd suggest the Gait Torque, there are some people that hate it and some that love it, but its light, pinched, cheap and really accurate.

Will this fit the brine swizzbeat9 or the brine swizzle scandium

ive heard of people using this head on d poles how good is it? can u put six dimond on d poles? ive never seen it

Six diamond is actually most popular on poles. It has a lot of hold, but a much slower release. Out of the larger diamonds, I would choose 8d. It's a perfect in between for 10d and 6d.

im a midi, should i get the proton power or super power? i keep geting mixed reviews and its mad annoying

The proton power and super power are essentially the same head except the super power is a bit wider. If you are playing high school rules not NCAA go with the proton power. It is and has been the best head for years for midis and attackman. Great pinch, easy to string, and its durable. You can face with it too. The super power is a great head as well just with less pinch. You cant go wrong with either it all depends on how much pinch you are looking for.

This or the Mojo X for a back up head for an attackmen?

This head is really heavy. Although it comes at a great price it lacks stringing holes and does not have a great scoop. If you are looking for a d head, then go for a brine blue print or an x10

STRINGING IS HORRIBLE, IMPOSSIBLE TO MAKE A GOOD POCKET IN IT. VERY TOP HEAVY! AND SAY GOODBYE TO ALL BALL CONTROL!

Ball control is all about stringing, and I've seen people who can string this amazingly. You are probably a novice stringer, and don't know to make a channel. If your a real defensemen, top heavy doesn't mean anything. Don't write in all caps, it makes you looks like an idiot.

I agree

Damn, how you feelin now Jawa_Lax? Lmao.

yah impossible for you to string this, you string like you tie your shoe. I could make a sick pocket on the cheapest stick, i could make it throw better than your start stick or should i say bench stick?

why is the black one more expensive is it better or what????

higher demand

why is the black proton u more expensive?

Does this fit good on the kryptolyte? and by fit good i mean does it become loose

Is this any good as a d head?

just get x10 these get pendy after 6 7 months

Thnx bra

yep

Is this any good as a d head?

Sorry For the double post. But I need a new d head because I have an stx hype (not that many will know what that is). But the head is kinda offset to one side because of checkx and stuff. Is this a good alternative to the Edge and Excaliber or X10? It's cheaper than the others which is what makes me consider buying it. Please respond.

Go for it, this thing is as durable as a tank and is as stiff as a board.

is this lighter then an x10?

yes

idk wait jack thomas is saying or responding to but this head is like 7 oz and it sux x cal/x10 is like 5oz and is stiffer

Im debating between this and the Blueprint X. Can anyone help?

neither x10 or xcall

if you are looking for a D head, get the blueprint or revo x

is sooooooo STIFFFF!!!!!1!!11!

wait a couple monts it gets bout as strong as helix

this is pretty wide,about as wide as the x10. so its for d but its super easy to string and makes a good pocket and has a really good feel. Its stiff enough to play aggressive d. Only thing i don't like about it is it's a little heavy but not a big deal at all and super cheap. I'd say its just as good as x10 but cheaper

i use it for d it's custom strung from here the best head i've ever seen yes it's for d use it

just got this to replace my proton and i love it its stiff as hel perfect for a ton of poke checks

okay man thanks

just got in mail today. Once i string it and use it in a game ill post a review and recomment

glenn25........of course it's a D head it's huge

will this fit the Brine A6000 or warrior alloy 6000

Doesnt even matter... get a better shaft first

is this a d head ?

is legal for highschool ?

no but the regular proton is nd btw under currently in stock it tells u

the face looks alot like original revo but should be better with stx forward cant plus stx doesnt throw off of top like warrior can definately adding to my list of choices for nxt head this edge or x10

X10

edge man its a tank. mines been broke for the past 6 games and it still throws perfect

first boy
