Re: questions for lacrosse players
I'm currently a senior in HS and i've played all four years on varsity as attack (started almost 1/2 the games as a freshman) and am planning on playing in college, most likely D2. I currently use a Warrior KrypoPro shaft, Warrior EvoPro head, brine ventilator X gloves, Cascade CPX helmet. These are basically all of the newest and best equiptment and will run you up pretty steep. other . for the helmet though a cascade CPRO or CPX is definitely your best bet, very sleek, light, and protective. personally for my head i use hard mesh with a V pocket and two shooting strings and 1 nylon, getting tighter gradually as the strings go up. all of the equiptment i listed are very durable, and the shaft you are talking about (warrior alloy 2000) is pretty damn cheap but i think it might last you a while, gl!

Re: questions for lacrosse players
the alloy2000 is one heavy bitch, and it'll probably break in half with one good check, splurge and get an F15 (or similiar) from brine-it'll run about 45 bucks and check into some of the newer heads, they're 2 steps ahead of the proton.....

Re: questions for lacrosse players
haha no, i don't like any of that gimmicky-crap like the sidewalls that swing or the proton with the extra plastic "fingers" or whatever they're called.
I would recoomend any of the heads from debeer right now-even their 30 dollar head "icon" is really good. Also a great head right now is the stx profile, i think 1/2 my team uses it here. Gloves-i love my ignitors, but they're expensive |
