The carbon fiber revolution is happening, and Epoch is leading the way. _ Epoch Lacrosse, a U.S. design and technology company that specializes in lacrosse, announces the release of its Dragonfly Nine shaft. With the introduction of the Dragonfly Nine, Epoch has truly challenged their own legacy by taking the legendary Dragonfly name to new heights with new technology and performance benefits. For 2019 Epoch Introduces their new HD Resin Technology and they have added new flex iQ options for Attack/Midfield and Defense/LSM for Dragonfly Nine. Epoch’s engineers have been working with their US based material suppliers for over 2 years on the latest resin technology specifically for their Dragonfly family of shafts. To accomplish this, Epoch worked with their engineers to make sure the new resin system showed improvement and also worked within their proprietary manufacturing process to produce even better shafts with improved durability. Epoch’s HD Resin improves the overall shaft but also adds direct benefits to each of Epoch’s Technologies, giving lacrosse players a better shaft and increased performance on the field. “We spent a lot of research and development on our new HD Resin and we couldn’t be more excited for it to be introduced to the Dragonfly Nine shaft,” said Jason Daniel, Epoch Product Engineer. “The main goal was to optimize mechanical strength properties especially in impact resistance. When our test results came in we were truly impressed with what we saw. We saw improvements where we wanted it but also saw how the HD Resin added benefits to other technologies.” In addition to HD Resin, Epoch has added new Flex iQ’s to both the Attack/Midfield and Defense/LSM families. One of the newest flex options for the Attack/Midfield families will be a Flex iQ2. This will be one of Epoch’s stiffest flex options and is designed for those step-down shooters who benefit from a stiffer shaft to help transfer their own energy through the entire stick when passing and shooting. Epoch is leading the industry with their specific iQ5 and iQ8 flex points that are engineered for specific defensive position. This year Epoch will be adding an iQ3 Flex point to that line up, designed for close defenders who defend hard, throw precision checks and look to get the ball up the field as quickly as possible. The iQ3 Dragonfly Nine is engineered to be stiffer for when you are in close around the goal and also when you need to throw a quick outlet pass from deep in the cor
