It has great hold with minimal whip. Love this head.

sidewalls are kind of loose, then for hold pound the pocket more towards the shooters or soften the mesh(recommend this more)

i think you messed up the topstring, or it is just loose

The topstring isn't messed up or loose. it just looks weird on the pic.
Bcannons14- SO far i liek it but luckily it was already a little softer and a little more broken in which i like it seems like it would hold up better in bad weather than regular 10d. IT has a verry smooth release.

WHy would you PURPOSELY loosen your sidewalls? if it is because it wont stretch, get it a little wet and pound it a ton, then tighten everything up and voala!

once again, the top string is not loose at all. it may look that way but it is not.
And why is four shooters ridiculous? Theres nothing wrong with it.

loose your shooting string style. put whip in your stick. maybe two U's. all possible solutions.

Looks good to me. Not a fan of Blades, but im huge on colored Cata, it just retains the stiffness much better than white cata.

Looks alright. That's actually better than a lot of Catapultion stringings because a lot of people don't stretch it as much as it needs to be.
On a side note, are people just rebelling and not posting mesh jobs in the mesh stringing sticky? Or is that not a rule anymore or what....?
I like the mesh. 4 shooting strings is over doing it though. If you want more hold, I'd recommend you put 2 straight, and then a U, all weaved. This is how I've got my Razer 2.0 and I love it. From there just tighten/ loosen the strings individually until you get it to throw and hold like you want.
Also, you should tighten the sidewalls. If you're worried about the pocket depth (or lack of depth) pound the crap out of the pocket and go to the wall for awhile.
I would just say tighten up and tidy up that topstring.
