| This is my son's second Apollo shaft. He plays every week, middie and attack. This stick has held up well. |
| All my friends use this shaft and none of us have had any issues with it. |
| Got this for my son and he absolutely loves it. The design matches his equipment and his team colors. I’m happy with this purchase. |
| 👎 Cons |
|---|
| Not really for competitive play. The shaft is really lightweight but the material doesn't hold up. |
| The shaft broke in half. I’ve never had a metal shaft break so quickly. |
| This shaft is very light, and it broke at the end of the second quarter in my first game. I would not recommend it. |
The Apollo is a great shaft for any offensive player, whether you’re an attackman or midfielder. The blend of scandium and titanium adds durability to this shaft, which is incredibly lightweight. Durability is also something to keep in mind when using this shaft because some players find that it's durable enough for them, while others find that it breaks easily. It’s designed with Maverik's speed shape and a textured grip for better control.
