i can throw very well with all of them, even with a follow through. all of them except the red mesh'd eclipse are 20d.

You love all this attention, don't you? Ohh yeah, I know you do! What kind of attention do you think you will be getting after I get my Pimp back? That's right, none.

Just messing because it is pretty evident that I love you.

they look pretty good but your sidewalls are a mess

They look like that because he skipped diamonds to created a much deeper pocket.

mdawg

i realize that. i just saying they are a mess because of it

where did you get the 20 d mesh from?

Jimalax, but you have to ask for it...

they are really nice. my eclipse is similar to your red mesh. but do your sticks have a lot of whip cause i havent been able to get a big pocket without whip

MClothier

no they dont have a lot of whip. they have some, but that is almost impossible to eliminate from a goalie stick if u want a deep pocket.
mdawg- how would u suggest i do my sidewalls? bc i have yet to see a deeper, cleaner looking pocket on a goalie stick. if u got suggestions, let me kno, that would be greatly appreciated.

well actually...do a corner pocket type pocket like in your eclipse. it no only looks cleaner...but it adds channel to it so its more accurate. (see below pics of my stick) notice how channeled the pocket is. if you ask any high level goalie (i.e. i asked catranno) they will say a pocket that throws better is better then a huge bag in the long run.

but like outburst said, we will all hang our heads in shame when we see his stick. it will be soooo sick.

When you strung that did you do the sidewalls tight or loose?

mdawg
02-02-2005, 04:43 PM
pretty tight if i remember right

He uses 20d though, his sidewalls work well because when he throws the mesh doesnt move too much, preventing whip

MClothier
02-02-2005, 09:29 PM
yes, thx laxngoalie- i use different mesh most of the time. my nemesis currently has blue reg hard mesh on it, so i did the sidewalls differently to meet the needs of the mesh type. with 20d, there is no need wutsoever for loose sidewalls, and u have to scrunch the mesh up ,or the pocket will come out very very bad. as for accuracy, those sticks with 20d have great accuracy as well as a good throw to them. i havent complained yet, so obviosuly the stringing is fine. also, i like a big pocket seein how i like to leave the crease a lot. so until i have complaints about my stringing, i dont think im changin it one bit.
