I dont see what makes the motive so special. its not that pinched, its not light, the sidewall construction is proton-esque, and the offset is weird.

So were you saying the store sucks or fresh mesh sucks? If fresh mesh, than you just like completely changed your mind about it...

it can be a pain to string with a single sidewall but i did the double and now its good

I would never pinch a brand new head, I couldn't do that to it yet.

I could never pinch a brand new head either...especially making it illegal(just my opinon though)

i actually measured it and its a little under 6.5 when i take off the strings it will mellow out

THE HEAD!!!!!!!!!!
Why not post when you get it? Or was the purpose to just rub it in????
My question is why THESE useless posts, but then my post as a direct question to meshiah and other jimalax users gets closed....common.....
Let's be fair, if this stays alive, then don't knock newbs who come on lookinf for advice and tips on stuff we already had threads on, they probably do not even know they can search old threads, I freggin didnt at first....
and, i want new updates, those old thread get filled with garbage posts like this anyways...we went from motive and fresh mesh and stores and etc....WTF, i just came on to see what this brine head looks like, Unta I want the minute or so I wasted on your post back....
No offence, but the guys who post this are the same clowns who knocked the kid who came here looking for info on the python and optra's last week.....and yes there were old posts, I started them and asked for reviews and got nothing but trash....

It looks like it's a really good head. I went with an Answer instead, we'll see how that checks out. I just wanted that suicide pinch.

in the laxzilla catalog, it said that the motive is great for face offs. do you think it would be when unaltered? when i checked it out at a store, it looked pretty wide and it looks to me that you pinched it quite a bit
nice pinch, i'll take it if you ever don't want it :agree:

Hmm, Jack's Lacrosse Shop? Never heard of them. But since it's a new Brine head I thought it might have been there navy fresh mesh.
