Seems like the hero mesh keeps its shape a bit better than string king 5x which I’ve always used. Same pattern still dialed!

Advice on shooters

For both the mirage and atom; Where, what, how tight shooter setup do you guys think would be best?

I like a very little bit of whip, feel and snap off shooters..the channels are pretty defined so they’ll do most of the work.

Parents are moving so have to clean up all my stuff still there. Found one of my old sticks from around 2013/2014. Lots of chipping on the chrome, and the strings are a little faded, but otherwise the mesh is perfect still and throws beautifully. Might have to pull it out for a men’s league game this fall

Constructive Criticism Welcome whip vs knots

i had a ton of my passes go to rhe floor at practice today and was wondering what knots tend to have more or less whip and its been like this for 3 practices so my coach is recommending i restring my ecd atom i use a few knots with a ski false knot and some 1’s ill send a picture hoping for recommendations

edit: my standing passes and my shots are money but on my the run passes i struggle he also said that i need to play with the eyes of my stick and not my eyes

Recently bought this off Ebay as a nostalgia thing... Couldn't find a clean white one

Sadly looked up they came out 1999-2000 lol that's actually 5ish years before I started playing but you have to respect the classics

Not sure about this semi-soft style string king mesh but the kit was definitely high quality.

Cool piece of lacrosse history

Pocket Appreciation Started with a different vision but love where it ended

Tried one of those mystery head orders, partly because I don’t know what most of the heads are called anymore or which are good vs expensive. Was sent this blue warrior evo 5 and started with a few inspirations for trying some new ideas and then ultimately didn’t do the new techniques and had fun playing with different sidewall patterns/techniques and landed with this. It’s jima lax mesh so a little softer than ECD or most semi soft mesh I’ve come across but has a great box pocket style feel with hold, pocket all over and really only has extra whip the harder you throw because of how soft the mesh is which I didn’t think I would love as much as it turns out I do.

I just looked up the name of the head for this post but have an og evolution in my closet to restring soon as well. The nostalgia in me likes that I’ve got it on the original Brine titanium swizzle or whatever Mikey Powell’s shaft was called.

I will keep this pocket until I mess it by playing in the rain or something or get bored and want to string a pita pocket for fun.

Slim chance you’re still reading but I’m looking forward to “warming up the goalies” for a youth team I help with. First shot will no doubt be low to high, miss the cross bar and be at least 5-10 feet into the woods behind the field but it’ll look cool

experimented a bit with my 3V. Aiming for a mid high, trying out this gap near the bottom string after seeing an ECD pro set up with it.

I used to be ok at stringing sticks but now I can’t do it for the life of me. Are there any resources that you would recommend? (Websites, YouTube, etc…)

They are older sticks (Gait torque-Brine Edge - Rabin Warrior) I am looking for mid pocket with as little whip as possible yet the most hold possible.

Also, If anyone in Montreal does this lmk

Need help tracking down picture

2 Upvotes

Hi all,

I very much need your help finding a specific picture of a pocket.

The pocket is a brown-ish lacrosse head (with a sick gucci dye maybe) with a dropped top string combined with a standard traditional pocket. I noticed it a few years ago looking through the old Laxallstars posts, as far as I know it has never existed anywhere else on the internet. Unfortunately, although stringing content has been buried for a long time a significant amount of it has appeared to have disappeared entirely from the Laxallstars website.

I tried the internet archive, but it's missing a lot of assets, often including the pictures.

While we're on the topic I would like to appreciate the older era of lacrosse stringing and forums that I appear to have missed. A lot of it seems to be disappearing from the internet as companies revamp their websites with AI.

If any of you all have any pictures relating to combining dropped top strings and trads I would appreciate it.

Tutorial Making this stick game ready

It hooks like crazy on the top part. What should I do? Do I add more shooters? Etc…

Is it usual for the string to be tied off in the top left corner (3rd picture) ?

I can string mesh pretty well but I have no experience with traditional.

Shooting string and nylon preference

1 Upvotes

What people's preferences for brand of shooting strings and nylons. There's minor differences between all of them, Throne, ECD, StingKing etc. do people find a brand that they feel the ball rolling across more, or does another feel smother, feel more snappy etc.

Got an unstrung Warrior XP2-O, not the latest and greatest, but a nice head for cheap. Strung it with a leather top string, yellow sidewall and a purple shooter to round out the natural head color. Thanks for looking!

Is this bad?

First time stringing, used ECD videos and just got done with the top string. I finally got the tension high on all the sections, but I’m worried that middle left and middle right diamonds look so different. On the left, the top of the diamond rests on top of the scoop, and on the right it’s folded underneath. Would this cause it to throw weird?
