Maybe if you did regular sidewalls, and you also double uped lower, then you'd get more of a channel. But it's still a clean string job.

wow man that is awesome.
it looks so smooth, and clean.
very nice work.
i think the channel could be more defined, but it's okay.
how's she throw?
keep it up!
*and dont worry, i restring my sticks so many times in a week i dont even bother to count anymore.

looks good. The dye isnt amazing, but it isn't bad. One thing I noticed is when you put two strips of tape side by side, you didnt fill the overlap with hot glue. That is why there are the lines on the head (on the scoop and the throat). Also, the 'M' is sloppily cut out.
The stringing is good, but I would have given it at least a little bit of a channel. It's not fundamentally wrong, but a channel can give you more hold and make your stick more accurate. It also reduces ball rattle.

The whole head looks good. (stringing in) If it works for you, throw it.

I really, really don't like that dye. The squiggles are sloppy and the blue runs into the yellow often. Great string job though.

Same question, and if anyone has any tips on what sidewall pattern to use to get a medium to medium-low pocket with decent hold, PLEASE PM ME(7d mesh)

Have a shallow, low pocket. Don't use any U shooters. Not much else you can do to eliminate whip.

Do u think just adding a nylon will help? and are there any specific ways to string the sidewalls on the evo so u can get a high pocket

Nylons are mainly used for eliminating lip (the ball hitting the plastic of the scoop). I don't have an Evo 2.0 myself, but simply double up high in the head and don't double up near the bottom (forcing the pocket up high). You could also use double sidewalls which makes pocket placement very easy.

No problem. Feel free to send me a PM if you have any other problems/questions, I'd be glad to help.
And be sure to post some pictures once you're done. I wouldn't mind seeing how you made out.
