Gait Apex 2

The Apex 2 is specifically engineered for advanced players. Its specialized geometry and high-performance mesh are designed to meet the demands of competitive midfield play, which might be overkill or difficult to manage for someone just learning the fundamentals.

The curved offset design lowers the ball position in the head, which significantly improves ball control while you are running. This allows for a more secure carry during transitions, helping you maintain possession even when dodging through traffic.

This construction creates a wider catching area at the top of the head, making it easier to secure passes on the run. Simultaneously, it maintains a narrow channel lower in the head to ensure the ball stays centered for a consistent, accurate release.

Yes, like most high-performance mesh, it will need a short break-in period to fully adapt to your throwing style. Because it is designed to shift and accommodate movement, you should spend some time wall-balling to let the pocket settle into its optimal shape.

Yes, the Apex 2 comes pre-strung and ready for play. While you may want to adjust the tension of the shooting strings to dial in your preferred release point, the stick is fully assembled and game-ready upon arrival.

The scoop is optimized with a specific angle that allows you to get under the ball cleanly without having to adjust your stick angle excessively. This design helps you scoop through ground balls quickly, which is essential for transitioning from defense to offense.
