When you think of players who embody the modern game of lacrosse, Connor Kelly is right there at the top. A Premier Lacrosse League standout with the Philadelphia Waterdogs and the driving force behind CK Lacrosse, Red Hots and the Miami Lax Club, Connor brings a mix of elite skill and true passion for growing the sport. We recently caught up with him for an episode of The Feed at Lax.com HQ — where the conversation was just as smooth as the passes.
In this episode, Connor and our Content Director, Jack Book tossed the rock, talked shop, and shared some laughs about the game we all love. Of course, Connor showed up in style — rocking the Zima HIIT Performance Shirt, Zima Sprint Performance Shorts, and the ultra-light Zima Select Featherweight Hoodie.
While at the Lax.com Showroom, Connor picked out an ECD Ion (Clear), strung up by our in-house stringing pro and showroom manager, Kelly Gouin. Kelly dialed it in with a semi-hard mesh, shaping a shallow mid/low pocket to deliver a solid amount of whip. The ECD Ion is one of our top sellers for offensive players like Connor — lightweight, consistent, and built for quick hands, control, and pure confidence.
Connor isn’t running with this setup in today’s video just yet — he wants to break it in a bit first. Stay tuned for an upcoming shoot where you’ll see this Ion pocket really shine in his hands.
Check out the full video below to hang with Connor Kelly.
Stay tuned for our next episode soon!
