I'm guessing early 90's since the bucket.

Yeah, that pic is from the early 90s, probably around 92 or so. It looks like it was taken at Vail. All his other pictures are from the same era (early to mid 90s).
I actually saw this guy's website with lacrosse shots back in the day before all the other sites got started like laxshots and e-lacrosse. Man, I can't believe it's still up.

It looks like the guy on the ground has a hi-wall, the guy who looks like he's about to kill him has either a turbo, viper, or dominator, you can't really tell from the angle. The would put them around the early 90's.
If you look closely, the end of the standing guy's cage, there is a V, which it what the really old school helmets were like. When I was in high school, those things were a prize. The newer buckets had this heavy, thick padding. Those were thinner and a lot lighter, but hard to come by. I would love to pick one up on eBay if I could find a bargin. It would be fun for summer leauge.

That is a Dominator, you can tell by the way it kinda flares in a bit at the top of the sidewall.

Are you sure? I don’t want to call you a lying liar who lying to me right now, but I’ve owed all three of them at one time or another, the only difference I ever saw was the sidewall. From the front, they all looked the same. I honestly can’t tell from the pic.

And, again it's hard to tell because it's black and white, but I think that's a rocket pocket...

See how the Dominator kinda slants, well not slants, but it gets a tad narrower almost?

It was worth being proven wrong just to see that chair again!
You're right. I think the beefy sidewalls made them slant in.
