I'm very old school. I still use the same model sticks I grew up with; every time they break i just buy a new one.

i'd love to do that but i don't think they even make my favorite anymore. the closest looks like the stx x2+, but that has the forward cantilever that wasn't around back in the day.

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!

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.....

are you talking about those heads with the flexible sidewalls? they look very weird.

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

Ah the excalibur. another old favourite. that and the stx turbo are the sticks i grew up on until i stopped paying for head [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

btw i love the feel of a wood shaft. the aluminum and composite and titanium ones just don't do it for me.
