Tank 2.0

# Maverik Tank 2.0 Head

The Maverik Tank 2.0 stands as a monument to defensive prowess within Maverik's lacrosse history. This ultra-stiff head (the stiffest Maverik has ever made) caters to the enforcer on the field, boasting unmatched rigidity with the 6-strut Xrail design and Duratough materials, a wide face shape, and a high pocket design. 

The Tank 2.0 integrates into Maverik's defensive legacy. Following a lineage of reliable defensive heads, it takes stiffness and ground ball control seriously. This uncompromising head caters to defenders who prioritize stopping power and ball possession.


 **Perfect head for:** elite defensemen


### Key Features Include



* Level 5 bottom rail made for a high pocket
* Ground Control Technology for an engineered scoop angle, designed to pick up groundballs with ease
* X-Rail Technology distributes the stress to the opposite rail creating a lightweight and stiff design
* Made in the USA


### Top Competitor Comparisons: the [ECD Rebel Defense](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/lacrosse/heads/east-coast-dyes/rebel/defense-heads/l202584) and the [STX Hammer 1K](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/lacrosse/heads/stx/hammer-1k/l339501)

In the defensive realm, the Maverik Tank 2.0 squares off against the ECD Rebel Defense and STX Hammer 1K, each offering a unique blend of strength and control. The Tank 2.0 boasts a mid-pocket depth and a balanced face shape, excelling at both powerful checks and controlled ground ball pick-up. The ECD Rebel Defense features a slightly shallower pocket and a pinched face shape, ideal for precise checks and maintaining tight possession control in close defensive situations. Conversely, the STX Hammer 1K prioritizes loose ball dominance with its wider face and shallower pocket, making it a weapon for scooping ground balls and winning battles in open spaces. 


### Progression:

The Maverik Tank lacrosse head series features two models: the Tank and the Tank 2.0. Here's a breakdown of their progression:

Original [Maverik Tank](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/lacrosse/heads/maverik/tank/l726):



* Level 5 Bottom Rail 
* 4-Strut Design for maximum stiffness and rail support.
* Two screw holes for added head security
* Wide face design for intercepting passes
* Multiple stringing holes for custom pocket options

[Maverik Tank 2.0](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/lacrosse/sticks/heads/maverik/tank-2-0/l164354):



* Updated with Ground Control scoop so that defensemen will own the GB battle
* Newly introduced X-Rail Technology
* 6-Struts to redefine the standards of stiffness in poke checks and slaps. 


### What people are saying (edited for brevity and clarity)

PROS



* Perfect defensive head. Wide scoop and stiff as a rock. Accurate passes and getting great shots for a defensive head.
* It's good for defense but a bit wide for LSM; still usable for it though. Doesn't warp easily.
* It’s a very stiff head, perfect for scooping up ground balls.

CONS



* The head needs a significant break-in period to feel comfortable.
* The face shape doesn't create an ideal channel for a tight hold on the ball, impacting my ground ball control and takeaways.
* It can be difficult to string as the head is so wide.


### Expert Review (by [Allen Melick](https://sidelineswap.com/locker/EmpireSports)) 

This is my favorite defensive head by far. It has a wider face than the first generation to make knocking passes down and transition that much easier. The head is incredibly stiff and holds its shape a lot longer and better than other defensive heads. I used this head through all 5 years of college, and the 2.0 is on both sticks I use right now for my men’s league. It's really durable, and you can throw up a lot of hard checks. It will for sure cause some pain when you use it.

Havok 2.0

# Maverik Havok 2.0 Head

The Maverik Havok 2.0 Lacrosse Head continues the legacy of its predecessor as a top choice for elite defensemen and LSMs (Long Stick Midfielders). It features a tighter face shape for enhanced control and increased stiffness through a redesigned 4-strut design, aiming to deliver powerful checks and disrupt offensive plays. The scoop is specifically engineered to excel at ground ball pickups, making it easier to gain possession and transition the ball upfield.

Maverik has a history of prioritizing innovation and performance in their lacrosse equipment, and the Havok 2.0 embodies this focus. It represents a refinement of a successful design, incorporating player feedback and advancements in materials to solidify Maverik's position as a leader in defensive lacrosse equipment. 


 **Perfect head for:** elite defensemen and LSM


### Key Features Include



* Perfectly engineered scoop angle explicitly designed to pick up groundballs
* XRAIL Technology is engineered to distribute stress to the opposite rail creating a lightweight and stiff design.
* DURATOUGH Materials increase stiffness and provide consistency in all weather conditions.
* CONTROL CORE is designed with redistributed mass in the scoop and throat to decrease weight, increase stiffness, and enhance ball control.


### Top Competitor Comparisons: the [Warrior Evo QX2-D](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/lacrosse/heads/warrior/evo-qx2-d/l350399) and the [Maverik Tank 2.0](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/lacrosse/heads/maverik/tank-2-0/l164354)

The Maverik Tactic 2.0 carves its niche with a well-rounded design for diverse midfielders. It faces competition from the Warrior Evo QX2-D and fellow Maverik offering, the Tank 2.0. The Evo QX2-D prioritizes defensive midfielders with its stiff construction, close fit, and narrow face shape, ideal for disrupting opposing offenses. The Tank 2.0, on the other hand, leans towards offensive midfielders with its wider face shape and deeper pocket, facilitating powerful shots and passes. Compared to these, the Tactic 2.0 strikes a balance, offering a mid-pocket suitable for both controlled passing and decent shooting power. Its scoop design sits in the middle ground, making it adequate for ground ball pickups without excelling in either offense or defense.


### Progression:

The Havok lacrosse head series features two models: the Havok and the Havok 2. Here's a breakdown of their progression: 


[Maverik Havok](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/lacrosse/heads/maverik/havok/l7600) 



* Designed for aggressive defensemen, long-stick midfielders, and face-off wings
* Good for a mid-high pocket
* Incorporates Ground Control tech so players can scoop ground balls from any angle. 

[Maverik Havok 2.0](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/lacrosse/heads/maverik/havok-2-0/l272008) 



* 4-strut design: increased stiffness for stronger checks
* New strut orientation: improved balance and feel
* Tighter pocket: enhanced control and feel for passion and shooting


### What people are saying (edited for brevity and clarity)

PROS



* I used the Havok for four years, then upgraded to the Havok 2.0. It's lighter, sturdier, and has a better face shape. The scoop is good and has 20 sidewall holes instead of 17. I would recommend it to anyone.
* Switched from the OG Havok to Havok 2.0. Improved stringing options and efficiency at picking up ground balls. Durable enough for checks.
* My sons love the Havok 2.0 head. I like the blue color so I can spot him from the stands!

CONS



* The Havok 2.0 has a decent amount of stringing holes, but not as many as some other options, which might limit pocket customization for some players
* The head was slightly heavier than expected, impacting my agility and maneuverability during checks.
* Mine cracked after only a few months. Although I am pretty hard on my heads. 


### Expert Review (by [Allen Melick](https://sidelineswap.com/locker/EmpireSports)) 

Building off of the first Havok, this head is for the playmaking LSM and defensemen. Maverik made two changes with this head, the first being a tighter face for more ball control for defensive players who like to carry the ball. The second change is increased stiffness to the head to avoid warping when throwing a variety of checks.

The Maverik Havok carves its niche in the defensive realm, competing fiercely with the STX Hammer 1K and ECD Rebel D. All three prioritize strength, control, and ground ball dominance, but cater to slightly different defensive styles. The Havok boasts a mid-high pocket and a more traditional face shape, offering a good balance between checking ability and ground ball channeling.

The Havok is a head for the aggressive defender and LSM. It’s for players who take the ball away and look to push transition. With a ground control scoop for easy ground balls and Xrail technology to evenly distribute head stress, this head is lightweight and holds its stiffness. Good head to have in all weather conditions; it tends to hold shape well. Perfect with a mid-high pocket.

PROS



* I’ve strung both rebel offense and rebel defense heads. It’s by far my favorite head to string and play with. 
* It’s great for mid and low pockets, and very consistent passing and shooting.
* The pocket was a little shallow at first, but once I broke it in it worked great. 

CONS



* I think the Rebel Offense is a bit too stiff, I prefer a bit more flex for shooting.
* The stiffness of this head impacts the feel and pocket performance.
* A bit expensive compared to other options.


### Expert Review (by [Allen Melick](https://sidelineswap.com/locker/EmpireSports)) 

This head comes in an offense and defense model. The offense is easy to use. ECD always produces a perfect head. It's made with light and durable material. You can get a lot of use out of the Rebel without really trashing it. And the defensive head is made to be stiff. It won't bend in any way, which defensemen like, especially when playing at the higher level. The more checks you throw, the more warped a head can get. The sidewalls are solid on the Rebel. A player can throw some pretty strong checks.

* Pretty big learning curve when stringing the head due to the Innerlock system. 


### Expert Review (by [Allen Melick](https://sidelineswap.com/locker/EmpireSports)) 

The OG Stallion came out in 2005. It’s a classic head, and for good reason. It's got a great balance of power and precision, making it a good choice for all-around players. This is a great option if you're looking for a head that can do it all.

Burn X

### Product Description 

The Warrior Burn X lacrosse head is designed for the offensive-minded player looking for a quick release, maximum shot power and faster ground ball pick-ups. This sleek head is re-engineered with a slim profile and narrower scoop at the throat for more ball control and an enhanced feel. The Sym-Rail Twist technology reduces weight in the sidewalls without sacrificing overall stiffness or strength. The Warrior Burn X also features max stringing holes for a completely customizable pocket to match any playing style and pocket preference. The Warrior Burn X is an extremely lightweight and durable lacrosse head perfect for offensive-minded players.


### Expert Notes

The Warrior Burn X is a head designed with a narrower throat and a wide scoop, making it a weapon of choice for long-stick midfielders and defensive middies alike. Basically, the head is a cross-breed of an Evo 4 and a Clutch 3, combining both offensive and defensive elements to make it great for ground balls, shooting, and landing hard checks. Players love the wide, rounded scoop because it helps them pluck ground balls out of a scrum, and then quickly funnels the ball to the center of the pocket. Once in the channel, the tighter pinch helps players retain possession of the ball; upon release, the Burn X provides pinpoint accuracy on passes. The head is also engineered from some of the lightest, sturdiest material you’ll find. The head only weighs 4.7 ounces, which helps players increase their shot speed. Despite its lightweight nature, the Burn X is still highly resistant to cracks, breaks, and bends. Overall, the Warrior Burn X is a universally legal head perfect for elite LSMs and defensive midfielders who also want to make their presence felt at the offensive end of the field.

Triumph X

### Product Description

The Brine Triumph X lacrosse head continues to be one of the most popular defensive heads on the market. Constructed from reinforced Core-Tech, Brine has engineered maximum stiffness in strategic areas of the sidewalls for added durability and strength. By eliminating materials inside the sidewall and reducing extra weight with Core-Tech, the Brine Triumph X is super stiff and ultra-lightweight. This head features a high pocket with max sidewall stringing holes for ultimate pocket customization. The flatter scoop makes it easy to scoop up ground balls on the run and the wider face contributes to more picks and breakaways. NFHS and NCAA legal, the Brine Triumph X is one of the toughest defensive heads available.

### Expert Notes

The Brine Triumph X head is beloved by close defenders and long-stick middies (LSMs) because it is a wider head perfect for scooping ground balls and picking off passes. Defensive players love the wide face and flat scoop design of the head because it allows them to dominate offensive players by intercepting their passes and sparking easy transition. The flat scoop helps players quickly scoop ground balls out of a scrum and find their outlets to safely secure possession and clear the ball. The head is especially great for LSMs off of a faceoff. The wide design of the head is perfect for players who want high pockets, and with maximum string holes on the sidewall, they can customize their channels to their style of play. Players also love the stiffness and strength of the head. The plastic is made with a Core-tech sidewall, allowing defenders to land hard takeaway checks and scoop through any ground ball. The Brine Triumph X is a universally legal head perfect for lockdown defenders to make their presence felt on the field.
