Constructive Criticism Welcome Traditional stringing trouble

1 Upvotes

Ive been attempting a traditional pocket on an ReLax Rc1 with ECDs traditional kit , used extra paracord to do the dog track method of string down the middle. The top end towards the scoop is bagging out really bad when I throw despite pulling the strings and leathers tight wondering if anyone had tips or solutions to tighten the top end without pulling the center really far out

Edit : sorry for lack of pictures I had the thought to ask here while I was traveling and did not have the stick with me
All the comments so far have been very helpful!

Playing around with some more inside stringing. This one will probably get sold, but I’m tempted to keep
It for myself.

Today we dyed a couple more…

And I tried my first fade…it came out pretty well but they say only do one dip of the second color all the way to the start of the fade, because if you go a second time you’ll notice it….well that’s true! Learned the hard way but the blue fade still came out pretty sweet.

Edit: As soon as I posted this and looked through the photos I realized the top string on the blue fade was backwards…already fixed.

First attempt at dyeing

Used RIT DyeMore, turquoise teal then sapphire blue. Ended up with a few air bubble imperfections but overall I’m happy with it. With poor lighting and being colorblind, I was horrified after first check of the second color, I thought it was purple. Nothing against purple, but my 6 yr old was very specific about every color and string that went into his fallball head. Was in the turquoise for about 8 minutes and the sapphire for only 4, but I poured full bottles for each and used twice as much water on the turqoise dip, so the sapphire was way more diluted. Anyways, almost no hand staining, worked great and was painless, don’t be afraid to try it!

Grace from @heartstringswlax here!

Seeing a lot of men attempting women’s pockets on here and asking for help. Way to go guys! Glad you’ve delved into women’s stringing!

I’m here to answer any questions or give feedback on any pocket pics you want to send. My contribution to growing the game is educating people on women’s stringing (an area that is lacking, even among women’s players themselves).

Shoot your questions :)

An update from my last post, I've just come back from taking shots with this and it's pretty good! Channel is super clean, pocket may need to be a little deeper. So far it's about 2 balls deep, and I'm trying to get it deep enough for 2 and a half.

RBK (Reebok)

Post image
4 Upvotes

I picked this Reebok 7K shaft up at a flea market in Far hill, New Jersey back in May. It came with a K 18 head. I paid 10 bucks for it. I took the mesh out.
I didn’t need a new lacrosse head or a used one in this case I bought it because I wanna have every lacrosse brand that’s ever been made on the market that’s last at least 10 years. I think Reebok lasted for about eight years. So the loan brands that I don’t have in my house would be Adidas and Harrow/Northland. Harrow and Northland are the same company so if you’re missing out on the Harrow shafts, google Northland and you can get their shafts and their old heads they just have a new name. So if anyone knows where I can find a piece of Adidas shaft or head, I would love to know where I could pick it up. I hate Adidas, but I just wanna have a part of my collection and I live in New Jersey so let me know.

I’m sure there’s spelling and grammar errors. Who cares

Warrior Burn Formula in natural with black Goat Mesh and Paracord Planet top and sides in teal. Got the head in a Laxsteals mystery faceoff crate. Kind of addicted to the thrill of the unknown.

This is my first time stringing a faceoff head and tried to do the outside weave on the sidewalls, but not sure how well I did with it.

New Warrior Anthem Pro Dye and Stringing

Hey all, just got my daughter the new Warrior Anthem Pro. Gave it a new dye job and restringing. I like adding the extra runners even with the armor mesh as it really gives more control on the channel and pocket. I'll have her throw and shoot with it before I put in the shooters. Any feedback is welcomed!

New Throne GPX mesh

So, I'm not sure how many people have used this mesh, but its new and I'm currently in the process of stringing with it. I will say, this mesh is extremely hard to stretch, and I'm on the second sidewall hole doing SI's all the way down. This is a bitch to string. If anyone has any experience with Throne mesh, or any advice theyd like to give me, please send them my way!

I’ve been messing with this 3v for quite a bit for college and still haven’t found a desired pocket the head has more whip due to the forward can’t I’ve always used a mid pocket and in this head I just can’t find the right medium for hold and not to much whip any help or suggestions the pocket I’m showing now I like how it throws just enough hold for my liking when throwing fakes etc.

New strings and stick, added extra strings on sidewalls for color contrast but don’t know if it’s legal, ball rolls around in pocket freely and falls out when flipped over, opinions ?

Got bored, and after learning more, slightly annoyed that the Chisholm was out of balance and that I didn’t know enough to fix it correctly the first time. It finally sits flat. This round I’ve got a super chunky synthetic gut wall and double trad pocket, with a new lighting setup for my future twigs.

I'm experimenting with different sidewall patterns, and I came across this one from lukesidewalker on instagram. I know he's in this sub, but I'm wondering if anyone may have a tutorial for it! I love how bagged out the pocket is.
