Default [Review] Gait Liquidmetal

I have had this shaft for about 6 months now and I am surprised more people don't have it.


Feel:

Some people argue about the texture tearing up your gloves. Well I haven't had any tears in my gloves through my 6 months of use. I also love the "new school" grip it has. This is the one with the curved in sides. I love the feel, although the texture does take some getting used to. I have hard many people complain about the grip and its getting used to.

7/10


Strength

Ahh... So strong. I haven't experienced any dents. This shaft has played both attack and goalie and through all the hacking at attack there are still no signs of fatigue in it. My friends does have some minor dents, and If you drop it on pavement it scratches and is weird.

9/10

Weight
Close to the weight of the DB803. Just by this statement you know it is very light. I do not have the exact weight of the shaft, but I heard it is around 5.7 oz I believe.

9/10

Appearance
I think this shaft looks great. It is available in Red, Black, and Blue. The color area of the shaft doesn't have the rough texture that the gray area does. The label does peel off quite easily, just like the DB803, which is kind of disappointing.

8/10



Bang for the Buck
Like i said in the beginning I am surprised more people do not have this. It is priced at around $90 and is very light and very strong. I would recomend this shaft to anyone because it is a fine investment and will last you. The db803 would be a cheaper alternative to this because they are very similar, just the 803 is not as strong and it doesn't have the grip.

9/10

ya its a very good shaft a friend on my team has one i think people dont buy it cuz its so light that they think it will dent also i think you should add an overall and have it warp it all up

also the shaft weighs 5.6 onces

Im giving it a 10 because I have had no dents with it or any other problems. Also , Gait claims it to be 3x stronger than TI which is strong.
