PRODUCT NAME
Epoch Lacrosse 6th Generation Dragonfly Attack/Midfield Shaft | Carbon Fiber | Concave Geometry | C3
PRODUCT CODE: PROD3020264762
PRODUCT INFORMATION
This 30 inch carbon fiber shaft is a favorite for attackmen and midfielders playing at the highest level looking to add new technology to their game.The shaft has a concave shape with a slip/grip which is a highly engineered 'gritty' textured topcoat, which allows for consistent grip to be maintained in all weather, while also allowing the shaft to move freely through your hands to provide an optimum handle and feel.
The key to the Gen.6 Dragonfly is our Advanced Carbon Layering (ACL). The Dragonfly consists of very thin composite layers arranged in many different orientations. The torque box is located deep in the layup and involves a few specific changes to critical layers. Layers can be as thin as a few sheets of paper so it's nearly impossible to see with the naked eye.
The torque box is specifically centered on the key areas along the length of the shaft, just above the bottom hand and just below the top of the shaft. This places the technology in critical areas between and around the hands to create an optimal effect. We found that by increasing the strength through the center of the shaft, it could reduce the weight near the ends resulting in one of the lightest shafts on the market.
This shaft has a Flex IQ of 5 giving it a perfect blend of bendability. It also has a uniform release point and comes with a 1 year manufacturer warranty.
When passing or shooting, a load is introduced to the shaft causing it to flex back, which causes the carbon fibers to be stretched along the front of the shaft and compressed along the back. Reload Technology takes advantage of this situation by using low F.A.W. (Fiber Areal Weight) and high-modulus carbon fiber, which creates urgency for the fibers to return to their natural position for maximum recoil.

Product Description
Gen.6 DragonflyTo develop the Gen.6 Dragonfly, we pushed our engineers harder than we ever have before. The jump from Gen.5 to Gen.6 is the biggest increase in shaft technology Epoch has ever released. With the introduction of Gen.6 we have once again reinvented the lacrosse shaft.Dynamics. Forces. Understood. By understanding the dynamics and forces present in lacrosse, we engineered torque box technology to maintain the continuity of the shaft's geometry and maximize energy transfer to the head during a pass or shot. We developed Gen.6 featuring a non-uniform composite layup with variations along the length of the shaft. This technology creates a torque box and is designed to control and minimize ovalization or deformation of the shaft walls.Attack/MidfieldEpoch's most popular Dragonfly is a favorite of players at the highest level of the game.? The standard concave shaft offers a familiar feel for player looking to add some new technology to their game.Generation: Gen. 6 Position: Attack/ Midfield Length: 30' Material: Composite/Carbon FiberTop Coat: Slip/Grip Release Point: Uniform Technology Platform: Advanced Carbon Layering (A.C.L.) with Axis Technology Torque Box: Yes Warranty: 1-Year Available in Carbon
