[Trilax03]

i tried looking around the internet to help u out but i don't thnk anything "leaked" out about it yet...so i'm not sure

[tkdlaxer]

ok thanks for trying

[ViennaLAX16]

I honestly would go to the local lax store and when it comes out just kinda mess with em all

[tkdlaxer]

well u see the problem is i live in selinsgrove pennsylvania and lax isnt very huge here...i have to play for a club instead of my school..so what we get in our local sports store is very limited and i normaly just order from great atlantic so i trust all u wonderfull peoples thoughts opinions and reviews on here to decide what i want that and playing with other kids sticks on my team

[laxattack8888]

Just from hype and it predicted to be the bestselling head of 2006, I would get the Razer Pro. The Primer looks good too, but it kind of looks like it will either be great, or weak and terrible.

[tkdlaxer]

yea i think your probably right but unfortunanatly :bawling: thats the way its been with most stx heads lately but i think i'll pick it up its its light stiff and strong or even just light and strong cuz i love pinched heads.....and this on looks good

[snafoo]

the best stx head will be the proton power, all the others look pretty weak

[tkdlaxer]

ok how does u saying that help awnser ne of my questions? i didnt ask about hte proton power i asked about the primer

[snafoo]

simmer down little fella....i'll try to help you out a little more, but i stick with my original statement... the primer reminded me of the bionic when i saw it, just with a better pinch in the middle of the head. It didn't seem to be that much offset either. It wasn't super light, probably 5.2-5.7 ounces. It seemed to be pretty sturdy as well. I'm not exactly sure of what it will retail but i'd imagine 80-85 for it unstrung. It wasn't strung so i didn't get to throw with it.

[tkdlaxer]

ok thank you thats the most help i got so far sorry for the spaz...doesnt sound like its gona be for me then..idk wellthanks

[Formerlaxdemon]

the proton power does look the best . but the primer looks sick also

[olax214]

i used the primer
its pretty nasty
at my lax store in NJ an STX guy was there and he had all the new stuff
the primer is nasty and its super light
it felt nice on the new 40 dollar titanium shaft
I was really impressed by its rigidness
All around it was just comfortable to play with

[tkdlaxer]

so all around you'd get it? i think i would if i had some way of trying it we have like no lax stores near us..,

[chslax538]

whoa back up

40 dollar ti?? tell me more

[laxkid891]

In regards to your question the weight for the primer it is 4.8oz. But thats all that I know.

[tkdlaxer]

sweet not to bad...soudns comparable to my trusty old answer over all...

[shiftylax]

The primer is pretty sweet. I used one the other day to shoot around and it felt pretty stiff for an STX head. I'm not a fan of all the holes on the face fo the head - they could be eliminated and the head would be the same, but a little more aesthetically pleasing. It's more pinched than a binic and "weighs" much less. I'm getting one over a truth any day odf the week after having tested that head out on a d pole and having it bend more than roethelisburger's knee last week.

[tkdlaxer]

are they out on retail yet?

[freestylewalkin]

try PM ing ekeown he will know

[laxkid891]

How do you pronounce Primer, is it like Prime-er? or like Pri-meer?

[ekeown]

How do you pronounce Primer, is it like Prime-er? or like Pri-meer?

Prime-er (Primer) is a new head for STX

Pre-meer (Premiere, or Sc + Ti Premiere) is the new top of the line attack length shaft from STX

[westcoastlaxr4]

I'm pretty sure it is prime-er, because pri-meer is spelled premier

[justlaxin484]

can the primer be used for any shaft or does it need to be used with the crankshaft, bc i was at a store in MD over the weekend and i tried to put a primer on a warrior split and a stx alloy and it wouldnt fit on either, the shaft you go some of the way into the head, then it wouldnt go any farther

[ViewLax9]

Its not for the crankshaft, thats the kannon and v groove. I got a primer and it fits fine on my kryptolyte.

[Mad-Max]

Primer is now up at lax.com incase u wanted to see some more pics

[LaXgoAliE777]

The primer is an amazing head. The pinch is perfect so the ball control is amazing. It is pretty much a more durable version of the Answer.

[MidiLine1]

Hey laxgoalie, your a little late on posting for this thread. Try half a year...

[LaXgoAliE777]
