Sidewalls on mesh

[laxn]

Lately I have been stringing a good amount of sticks for people on my team and i have been experimenting wiht all kinds of sidewalls. What is everyones preferance and why, and what are the major differances, which are better for each kind of mesh. i personally use the E-Lacrosse double sidewall technique cause it gives me a really nice big pocket with no whip. BTW i did search

Here are the choices (I hope nobody minds me using pics of their sticks)

Interlocking (by orange):

Oranges "GIANT" pocket


Locked down (the same technique orange uses for the second string of his double sidewalls but without the first string).

I sometimes like to use interlocking sidewalls (not pictured) at the top to get the mesh even tighter at the release point. Besides that I use regular.

I personally prefer double sidewall done by following oranges tut. It makes a nicely formed pocket an looks awesome with diff color sidewall string.

My second fav is traditional doubling diamonds to make a high pocket like in one of the tut's on here.

Right now, my game stick is using regular

Ian, you and i both know that there is no need to double up sidewalls. I feel that double sidewalls are very overrated. I mean man, look at all the pro players sticks. Look at poopshoots stick, and hes by far our best shooter

i got like a variation of regular goin on. i like it. works good. or well. works good/well.

Regular and my way are pretty the same thing only I use extra diamonds. Whatever.

Well almost none of those people u named string there own sticks, i like my double sidewalls. By poopshoot do u mean robbie? also who said double sidewalls were for shooting?

i usually end up string my sidewalls either regular or interlocking. just depends on the mood im in when im strining and how i feel about the head after im done. i usually string sidewalls at least 3 times.. i don't know why, just a random habit...

[lacrosse19]

i can say that i do my own way. it works for me as well as everyone that i have strung it for. it is basically a interlocking sidewall. but i usually string regular when i'm lazy or don't want to use a lot of sidewall for a stick

[fossil8412]

Well the two that I have ever used are double sidewall the orange way and interlocking, and I will say that interlocking has been more consistant in throwing, yet not as good of a pocket as double sidewalls.

[wolvenfire]

ive been using Orange's double sidewall and they turn out pretty well. Also use regular for the lower diamond meshes.

^ i actually only use double the orange way and locked down for 7d or bigger
