Earlier today, I was thrilled to learn how many of our readers know about lacrosse heads. This afternoon, I posted an ambiguous picture of a head on one of our Instagram accounts. Within 20 seconds, Twittmer_103 said, “Troque #easy.” Pretty close, but no rubber cigar! Two minutes later, hh_ryans correctly stated, “Torque 3.”

Inspired, I took more pics to highlight the Canuck stringing job (I gave it more of a mid-to-high pocket – as opposed to a gator trap all the way at the top. Details about the special wax mesh will come at a later date) and 2013 Gait Scandal Shaft. View the full album on our Facebook page.

Inside Stringing Tabs with inverted V shape provides the narrowest allowable pocket for NCAA play. Drop-V Scoop channels the pocket allowing for improved accuracy and quicker release point.
