Just wait for next year, if Warrior has a new color for the Women's version of the shaft, then there is your "LU Exclusive" men's color. Last year Warrior brought out neon yellow and hot pink women's Kyrptolyte and that was LU's exclusive colors, this year Warrior brings out a neon lime green women's Kyrptolyte and now that's LU's exclusive color. I'm not it is a bad thing, but a trend that LU seems to follow. I know when I saw the neon lime green women's Kyptolyte this year my first thought was that Warrior needs to make it in that color for men too.

It's gonna have the same grip as the yellow one and the yellow one feels really weird with gloves on but without gloves it feels real cool. Just a thought.

Agreed. Is the grip similar to a kevlar type grip?

i like how they called it neon greeen with 3 e's

It's the same shape as the normal shaft, but it has a stickier feel. I think this is because they use some lacquer or clear coat on the shaft to help make the color stand out. Whatever it is, It's obvious they don't use the same anodizing process like they do with the normal colors.

IMO The grip is simialr to the grip of a powermaster, maybe just a little smoother

I knew about the Powermaster but knew it was a training shaft and wasn't 100% positive it had the same grip.

i don't thnk it's a kpro b/c it's the same price as the klyte is, just different color...the kpro is more expensive according to the site

That's what happened last year. They were selling the neon yellow Kpros as a Klyte price. Apparently Warrior messed up on them.
limited supply.Bleh they still have neon yellows from last year they shouldn't be running out of these any time soon.

hey they already made orange kpros, they're called "Kpro Apaches" and they sell them on www.chestnuthillsports.com

ekeown

The apache was made exclusively for Lax World, about 3 seasons ago. I don't know anything about Chestnuthill Sports, but frankly I wouldn't trust them at all.
They have pictures of the Apache on their site, which like I said was made exclusive for Lax World, so Warrior wouldn't sell it to anyone else. They also have shafts that never actually came out from 3 seasons ago like the dB803 Vari-grip shafts. And the final nail in the coffin for me, is that all their images of the product where stolen off of Lax World's website. Since they have a different phone number than Lax World, I think it is safe to assume that they aren't related to them, so it's just some website, that stole all of it's product listings and images off an extablished site, and don't really know much about lacrosse proucts (judging by the products they claim to carry on their site).

broslax16

wow that looks awesome, and klytes are great shafts. I might be picking one of those up. I think they are coming out with a carolina blue kpro though, so i might wait and see whats up with that.

10-25-2005, 04:33 PM

I'm definately getting one of those bad boys. It is such an awesome color and the klyte isnt a half bad shaft either.

MinnetonkaLax

wheelax, what is the lizards connection? btw the shaft looks a little to bright for my liking

10-27-2005, 09:31 PM

My neon green krypto came today, and it is not as neon as the pictures make it out to be. It is like a bright grass green, but not exactly what I would call neon. It is still an awesome looking shaft. I'll try and get some pics up later.

Those guys are off their rockers. they want a stx ti goalie shaft for $160. I ordered mine for $135 off lax.com. and they have bad info, a brine axe? I haven't heard of it but im probably wrong, it mightbe like the brine throttle and stx throttle, but I wouldn't trust 'em.

yeah have really good customer service. i bought some sps, a unstrung vapor, and some superfreaks off them 2 weeks ago, turns out they messed up the shipping and it was gonna come a week lake. for the hassle, they put in a 6pack
of lax balls and a mesh kit for the vapor.

and the neon klyte looks pretty sick, if they had it in kpro i would buy it. they still have yellow ones left?
