Finally some real insight that is well overdue. Tried Otter mesh but found it totally unforgiving and not what I was used to after 30 years of stringing and playing. My nephew started playing and had trouble as I gave him Otter mesh with basically zero 'give''. Stringking 3s was also not giving enough for me so I ended up liking Hero mesh.

The mesh dynasty is my favorite mesh. It has so many colors and diamond shapes. It’s absolutely amazing and feels great.

Again, you sir need an engineering degree, if you don't already. The amount of research and true understanding of the physics behind mesh, the perfect pocket, trajectory and in practice is the definition of an engineer.

I’m a big hero guy, especially now with the thinner hero 3 but I have encountered many durability problems with hero. Many pieces of hero have ripped on me, including a recent piece of hero 3 I had in a stick from its release until 2 weeks ago when it ripped on the 2nd/3rd row of diamonds.

Could you touch on the evolution of stringking's meshs? Also what draws people to use say 6D mesh or even a micro mesh? I'm sure it's feel, but I guess I'm asking for the technical reason on why they feel different.

what are your thoughts on face-off mesh for field play? I don't take face-offs but have a friend that does and I threw with his face-off mesh and it felt amazing. It was very thin and I could feel the ball way more than in my Stringking s3 mesh.

In theory it would have slightly more whip when shooting, but in practice I haven't been able to record any difference in numerous tests, so for all intents and purposes you can treat it as just a difference in feel.

Q1 will be somewhat answered tomorrow, and as far as waxed mesh goes, frankly it was a transition from non-waterproof mesh to more "modern" mesh that served a purpose, but now isn't necessary or preferable. It's too inconsistent compared to what else is out there.

Throne. Is Throne fiber in that more inelastic family of meshes? I feel like it is. But really not sure. Also, this video is super informative and helpful for those looking to find a preference.
@mainelymesh
4 жыл бұрын
I didn't get into this because it goes REAL deep into the weeds, but I'd classify Throne as in the middle based on what (little) I know about its material construction, but those middle category meshes feel more absorbant than they do inelastic if that makes sense? So I prefer them because I love how they receive the ball, as they feel like they deaden the impact, but that doesn't mean they're inelastic. They are stretching, but not rebounding. Versus a Hero 3 or Memory Mesh that is truly inelastic, and you feel allllll of that energy transfer from ball to stick to your hands. Did that make sense?

@@mainelymesh dawg!!! That makes sooo much sense!! And honestly you probably hit it right on the nose bruh. Very accurate to what I feel when I'm using Throne versus when I use Hero 3 (experimenting and testing and what not). While they both "perform the same" on the surface. They nuance probably drops into the picture exactly in the place you described it. With absorption, versus a deadening feeling.

Hard mesh was the original "waterproof" mesh due to its coating, but nowadays all base materials are waterproof themselves, so the hard outer coating isn't necessary anymore. A lot of companies due have a small selection around though just to accommodate people who still enjoy the feel!

It i did more than toss with the little dude i would likely use something else as it makes it harder to catch and keep in the head but it sure does toss nice and it was cheaper to learn to string with. Little guy got soft mesh after his pre strung bagged out after one season and a fall clinic. Love your stuff you were a big help with me learning how to and why.
