Epoch Firefly Carbon Fiber Lacrosse Shafts This 30 inch carbon fiber shaft is perfect for attackmen and midfielders looking to step up their game from an alloy shaft. 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 FireFly shares the same DNA as the Dragonfly but is designed for the advancing player looking to make the jump from an alloy to carbon fiber shaft. The Firefly is positioned directly at middle of the market currently occupied by legacy aluminum lacrosse shafts. 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. The Advanced Carbon Layering (ACL) technology consists of very thin composite layers arranged in many different orientations. 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.
