New shaft.. but what is it??

[Farsh]

Well my i was in my friends room looking at his old lacrosse sticks, and he said i could have one if i wanted. I spotted a black shaft in the back. it says its made of carbon fiber. its called a Warrior Vortech. It looks and feels like crap. have u guys ever heard of it? good? bad? we broke one of his old warrior shafts in half after about 8 or 9 hits with the Vortech to it.

is it worth using? i'm getting a STX Scandium shaft anyways.

Without pics, I am lost.

[the next 'one']

so you snapped a warrior shaft with it in 8 hits? i have never heard of it. i guess carbon fiber is supposed to be pretty durable. i know my brother's hockey stick is made of carbone fiber...

[laxin21]

i looked around online it says it weighs 8.5 ounces so if you want a heavy shaft go for it. Its kinda like one of the original composite shafts, id see what other shafts he has

[Farsh]

its strong.. we broke all his other shafts with it. it was one slight chip.. im uploadin pics now

sorry if theyre big

[gigo567]

I have never seen that before.

That looks a bit like one of those Titan pro kevlar shaft. In fact I think it is wrapped in kevlar. I can tell because in the second pic there is a thinner part at the top where the head goes. That is the only part that isn't wrapped in kevlar

[Farsh]

more answers please

[LoyolaMiddie878]

it sounds pretty sick to me...i'd use it if i were you.

its not kevlar and it does not get thinner

[Talent223]

Yea, it just looks like it gets thinner, but thats actually the inside of the shaft. Its not kevlar b/c it says it is carbon-composite, which is not kevlar.

[the wister]

If I were you, I'd take it. And then sell it to this guy on TLF named the Wister.

Hahaha, ok, has anyone else been paying attention? Let me get this straight: your friend had a bunch of shafts and said you could have one. You saw a crappy looking/feeling one called the warrior vortech and proceeded to smash ALL of his other shafts. Seriously, after I thought about this I couldn't stop laughing for like a minute straight. So basically, you only have one shaft to choose, because you used that shaft to destroy all of your other choices. Why you would've broken a bunch of shafts when you could have sold/used them is beyond my comprehension.

[Farsh]

no they were all dented and crap.. this was the only one in good shape..

more opinions..?

[goalie1215]

bust up some shafts with that junk. i would use it. maybe abuse it.

edit: i saw the wall thickness of the walls and i nearly creamed meself. nvm bustin shaft you could bust SKULLS!!! :devil:

[Mustangs21]

In my opinion it looks like the Krypto Pro Kevlar's older brother. If you like it use it. Plus you can't go wrong if you got it for free!

[manhasset]

my friend has it. its real heavy... personally i didnt like it just because the head to shaft weight threw my ball control off.

[Farny]

I'll give you ten bucks for that.

Seriously, it looks like something that a collector might want. Fancy, and the label looks new-ish.

[syracuselax3]

You should e-mail a warrior rep about it. They would know. That looks cool.

[sailorslax88]

its not kevlar, its full carbon fiber, look at the end pic, those sidewalls are thick, yet still pretty weak.

I would want top play who's shaft breaks first with my STX Titanium Custom Box. My stick is a tank if any of you gys saw the pics in my thread about it.

I've challeneged 3 Harrow Monster's and they are all scared I'll break there stick. I really don't think I would play, but its the fear factor that makes me happy.

[I Am Legend]

wow i havent seen one of these baby's in years ...i think my cousin has one, ill ask him to dig it up.

cuz a heavy metal stick feels more solid in my opinion. i wouldnt care if you snapped my monster because of the lifetime warrenty.

[lacrossemonkey8]

i got one my first year playing and its......meh ok.

i like the grip but its so heavy and not exactly as strong as one would think. i got my for 20 bucks like 6 years ago.

[goaliebeast00]

try not post twice just hit the edit button

[Farsh]

ill just keep it in the closet for now.. ill be ordering my scandium in a lil from QC Lax..

i might use the Vortech for my most physical games with my friends.. :chuckle:

[Tampalax24]

I think this was one of the first failed composite designs

Monsters have a lifetime warranty?
