I say absolutely everyone in canada freggin boycott's brine, either make us a box head or box equip for us....
....make something other that variations of the garbage edge that breaks quick....
.... and dammit STX made the awesome heads in the 90's and early 2000's....
...stx box powerplay was a gift from a company that acknowledge their sales in canada!!!!!
... and the rest of stx is still very good in box lax....
... and stx also has provided canada with the best box shaft ever, the stx box impact, a classic amongst pros and jr. a players even today!
... if brine is sooo good.... why doesn't the best players use it???
cuz last time i checked the gait used stx til paul formed is own designs w/ debeer (1 out of 2 gaits is still good, gary uses stx...)
and marecheck...
and grant jr....
and so many more box laxers use it tooo!!!!!
and who uses brine???/
all the NLL teams dropped brine, cuz they sucked in box!!!!!
their adds in toronto feature pat coyle and dan ladouceur, they are fregging defencsive goons!!!!!!!
LONG LIVE STX AND DEBEER< with this said i officially as of this minute retract all previous statements i had made positively about the brine triad helmet and wish that brine dies out of lax!!!!!
I officially now hate brine the most in lax!!!!
more than shamrock and warrior combined!

good for you then... you may have noticed debeer and stx are the only companies that cater to box lax w/ shafts and etc....
brine slaps canada on the name of stuff and expects to sell for box when it's really field gear!!!!

i'm with stx/debeer and all canadian box laxers i know my whole team uses nothin but stx and debeer only beacause brine is sh*t and because stx/debeer provides for all of the boxers in canada. i only know a couple ppl in my box lacrosse league who use brine and they all suck too just like brine does.
anyone with me say I and or amen
lol

paul gait. enough. we all know how much you love stx. but come on, every single post stx this, john grant that. i'd like to know how good you are actually are in lax. its annoying when ypu work paul gait and the powerplay and how much brine sucks in every post. i like brine, and i hate almost everything stx makes (except proton x2 and bionic) stx cant make a decent paor of pads that i have seen yet.

actually I have dropped stx....tears...we had to split i cant have their supposed box heads breaking the way brine heads do.....I've gone back to using mohawk....cheap and tough and they are great to pinch..... Stx makes good gloves only...I'll agree on pads, but brine makes nothing in pads for boxlaxers...and their heads freggin break easily...... the best in pads is GAIT/DB by far..... maximumlacrosse.com makes the best in pads, but are damn expensive...I am working on those...... smitt i'll make an effort not to work stx and the best players' names in my posts then if it insults you that much......
But let this be know, along with brine...stx sux too, a powerplay broke in a damn non contact scrimmage???? BS!!!!! Mohawks never break on me, hence why I go back...debeers never broke, but i had my triton warp on me, but its not broke, just bent to one side

They all flippin break. I've broke DeBeer, STX, Warrior, Brine (haven't had a Mohawk so can't say).
As for pads, they are all about personal preference. Brine was innovative w/ Rhinoskin. Granted it would suck for box, but is great for outdoors. Warrior is OK and same w/ STX. Debeer's pads are either clumsy and or give no protection.
Boycott if you've got a good reason, but Brine suing STX doesn't cut it for me. STX broke pattent laws, so they kind of deserve what they get, they could have simply paid the usage fee for the pattent and avoided the whole mess...it's their own fault.

I use the STX Eclipse goalstick. AWESOME!! Especially for the long outlet passes. It helps that the shooting strings were put in by San Jose Stealth goalie Rob Blasdell.

yeah, but the offset on that reduces whip and hook, my buddy steve has one of those, you can have suck a deep pocket and have it throw effort lessly, although, I stress any competitive boxlax goalie should have a woodie...they truely are the nemesis of a shooter in box lax!!!! TRUST ME!!!!!.....
But I can vouch that roadies is a good box goalie and damn can he long bomb to me (how many came in the roadies scrimmage to me dead on for a breakaway dan????) with that STX Eclipse!!!!

They say now that brine has force Stx to stop selling the X2, Proton, and the octane which if it's true will suck sh!t cause I use both the X2 proton and they're amazing head and now what will happen if i break one.

I think they just changed the offset a bit and the name. They still sell them.
I hope this thread stops popping up.
