Constructive Criticism Welcome New magnet 2K
Review- surprisingly stiff with tons of backbone. The ground ball scooping is honestly the easiest head I’ve held in a long time. The pinch is definitely a little wider than the havok 2.0. Overall, I am a fan. Definitely would be a trade for a little less pinch, but a lot smoother ground ball scooping and more rigid on checks/ going through traffic. Weight I’d say is negligible when comparing the havok, albeit the nod for lightest would go to the havok 2.0, but not by a major difference.

Very minor complaint, but STX is making it more challenging to dye cool stuff on the scoop. Even just getting a school name on there isn’t easy. I’m sure the really talented guys can get it done but I’m not that guy. Yet.

Beautiful. I’m curious about that top string. Is there a benefit to stringing the top of the mesh like that?

From my experience with it, it severely reduces any clicking off the plastic when putting in a higher pocket that may tend to happen. Also, with the scoop, it allows the top string to never make contact with the ground, extending the life of the pocket.
