👍 Pros |
---|
My son wanted a metal shaft to endure the rigors of the club lacrosse season. It’s been a great shaft for him. |
The smooth grip allows for quicker stick skills for me. It’s an overall great shaft. |
Great weight and strength for a two-way midfielder. Eats checks and hits hard. |
👎 Cons |
---|
I’m not a fan of this shaft. It bent after two games. |
My son wanted this shaft specifically. He has broken this model many times but refuses to use a different stick. It’s not durable. |
This shaft cracked from normal attack man play. If you are a heavy guy, this is not for you. |
For $130, players get one of Maverik’s top shafts, the Union. Maverik’s goal with the Union was to create a shaft that had the perfect blend of durability and weight. The Union is designed to be thicker in places where the shaft will take more of a beating and thinner in places where it takes less contact to help balance durability and weight. The shape and grip designed for this shaft give players a better feel and grip when shooting and passing.
