You can order it from Jimalax. Many, many people from TLF use jimalax for all their stringing needs. I don't think one person has ever had a problem with them. Great customer service, fast shipping, very reliable. If you're ever going to NOT be skeptical about ordering online, its with this site.
No, I don't work for them.

Quoted for truth. I got 23 or so pieces of mesh the first time I ordered (I ordered for 8) along with other goodies.

I would agree. I have communicated with Jimmy himself and he's a great guy, they're for sure a trustworthy and good business. As for the fastest pocket thing, if you really don't want to order mini mesh, go for some hard mesh instead

We've had threads on this. I'll try to find some.
But unless you just stand 30 feet out and crank shots in games, don't get it. It's not worth it.
Bow chicka bow wow! I found them!!!

The thing is overrated. I was bored over a weekend so I strung it up on my profile and it didn't really do much at all. You can also do it with the Gait heads anyways without having to loop it over. Just string the top string the way they do from the factory. It works well enough with sidewall string, I don't have any crosslace but I assume that would work well enough.

it probably has no hold just by lokking at it

If you took the time to use the part of your brain that allows you to read and didn't just look at pictures, you would know that it is not intended for games, just for messing around, since the release is insanely quick and it has so little hold.

I bet that if you put an extremly tight weaved nylon you could get some hold in there.

that would also slow down the shot.
people, this pocket is mathematically and whatnot the fastest pocket, its not actually the fastest.

actually, im pretty sure that i've read somewhere that you are supposed to use hard micromesh for that pocket, and Jimalax's is soft. If this is the case, you would not have the real "fastest pocket on earth," but close i suppose.

theres the one on e-lacrosse and i tried it with minimesh and 10D they both were about the same, and its not a huge difference in speed.
