While I am a lax rat, I’ve never really been a gear rat. I hardly ever get excited about a new piece of gear. When they announced the STX Eclipse II – I got excited. And why shouldn’t I? The original STX Eclipse is my go-to goalie head. But that original was released in 1999!Continue Reading Post

Today’s post is my response to a question I got from a young goalie regarding how to tape a lacrosse goalie stick. Taping the stick is one of those things I never thought about discussing here on the blog but I’m sure there are plenty of beginners wondering what the purpose of tape on the stickContinue Reading Post
