# STX Stallion 1K Head

The STX Stallion 1K Lacrosse Head is at the forefront of the brand's elite midfield lineup. Building on the success of the original Stallion, designed by NCAA champion Kyle Harrison, the 1K boasts several improvements for the modern game. EnduraForm™ material enhances durability and stiffness, while the Speed Scoop™ facilitates easier ground ball pickups from any angle. The head also features a deeper legal offset, which is said to improve ball feel and retention.

The Stallion 1K represents the latest chapter in a long lineage of successful midfield heads from STX. It maintains the core values of versatility and performance that established the Stallion's reputation while incorporating modern materials and design elements to cater to the demands of today's elite midfielders. 


 **Perfect head for:** elite midfielders 


### Key Features Include



* EnduraForm™ - a proprietary material for improved toughness
* Speed Scoop™ for easier groundballs, regardless of the angle of attack
* Deepest legal offset increases ball feel and retention


### Top Competitor Comparisons: the [String King Mark 2V](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/lacrosse/heads/string-king/mark-2v/l760) and the [ECD Mirage 2.0](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/lacrosse/heads/east-coast-dyes/mirage-2-0/l164123)

The STX Stallion 1K, known for its aggressive pocket and power-focused design, faces competition from the StringKing Mark 2V and ECD Mirage 2.0 in the offensive midfield space. The StringKing Mark 2V boasts a mid-pocket that offers a balance between shooting power and controlled passing, making it a versatile option for offensive plays. Additionally, its stiff construction allows for a strong hold on the ball during powerful shots. The ECD Mirage 2.0, on the other hand, leans towards a more traditional pocket design with a wider face shape and deeper pocket. This prioritizes optimal hold and control over the ball, ideal for players who value precise passing and pocket feel. Compared to these, the STX Stallion 1K stands out with its aggressive mid-high pocket designed for maximizing power in shots. Its wider face shape also facilitates strong cradling, but it might offer less control on finesse plays compared to the Mark 2V or Mirage 2.0.


### Progression:

The STX Stallion Lacrosse Head has seen several iterations over the years, each aiming to improve upon the previous model in terms of performance and features.



* Original STX Stallion: This model was the first model of the STX Stallion. The head was designed in collaboration with lacrosse legend Kyle Harrison, this head offered a traditional pocket depth and a wide face shape. 


* [STX Stallion 500](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/lacrosse/heads/stx/stallion-u-500/color-multi/l364715): The 500 model introduced a deeper pocket to improve ball control and cradle security. It also features a slightly narrower face shape for better handling and passing. 


* [STX Stallion 700](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/lacrosse/heads/stx/stallion-700/l723): The Stallion 700 built upon its predecessor by incorporating EnduraForm material for enhanced toughness and consistency. It also features an improved scooping pocket for easier ground ball pickups. 


* STX Stallion 750: This model introduced C-Channel technology for increased strength and stability. It also offered a wider variety of stringing options for greater pocket customization. 


* STX Stallion 800: The Stallion 800 saw the introduction of SpeedScoop technology, designed to make ground ball pickups even easier from various angles. It also featured a deeper legal offset for improved ball feel and retention. 


* [STX Stallion 900](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/lacrosse/sticks/heads/stx/stallion-900/l165638): The 900 model continued the trend of improved pocket customization with optimized stringing hole placement. It also maintained the EnduraForm material for durability and the SpeedScoop technology for efficient ground ball scooping.

 
* [STX Stallion 1K](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/lacrosse/heads/stx/stallion-1k/l316969): The latest iteration, the Stallion 1K, boasts a redesigned SpeedScoop for even better ground ball acquisition. It also features the Innerlock technology for easier stringing on the inside rail, allowing for more personalized pocket configurations. 




### What people are saying (edited for brevity and clarity)

PROS



* This head was meant to be my backup, but now I use it as my starter. I highly recommend it for offensive players, especially attackmen. It's perfect!
* Good control up close or running from X, but compared to Kinetik 3, the ball sails high/wide from >20ft out. Tough for sweeping alley attacks.
* Throws great and I have great control with the ball.

CONS



* It does feel a bit stiffer in the top section...definitely stiffer than the 900
* Compared to other competitor heads, the Stallion 1K offers fewer sidewall stringing holes.
* I understand this is a high-end midfield head, but it’s a bit pricey compared to what else is out there. 


### Expert Review (by [Allen Melick](https://sidelineswap.com/locker/EmpireSports)) 

The Stallion 1K is the top midfielder head for sure. It's based on the original Stallion design that pro player Kyle Harrison used and designed for that two-way midfielder. The 1K has an improved stiffness, shape retention, and an updated scoop. PLL rookie, Nick Nakeie Montgomery, who ranked 28th in Duke history in career points, also uses this head. I like this head because it can be used both on the offensive side of midfield and the defensive side. It weighs in at about 4.7 oz, making it lighter than the current ECD DNA 2.0, StringKing Mark 2V, and Mark 2T.

### Top competitors comparison: the [Warrior Burn](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/lacrosse/lacrosse-helmets/warrior/burn-14/l12316) and the [Cascade S](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/lacrosse/lacrosse-helmets/cascade/s-61/l855)

### Progression:

Retaining some of the same similarities as the Stallion 550 and the STX Stallion, the Rival helmet was designed with more aggressive styling hoping to appeal to the masses.The STX Rival Helmet is a huge upgrade from previous STX helmets. It includes a sleek design, 70% better ventilation, a Sure-Fit air system pump on the back to adjust the fit on the fly, and a nice fitted comfort liner. 


### What people are saying (edited for clarity and brevity)

PROS: 



* Ventilation and on-the-fly air adjustment are a great addition to this model. I added a visor just to give it a little more intimidating look. I definitely would buy another one.
* This is the first custom helmet I bought for my daughter, who is a goalie and entering high school. The helmet fits great and is more comfortable than early stallion models.
* For the price, the STX Rival is a great value. It's a step up from the most basic helmets but without the high price tag of some top-tier options.

CONS: 



* The Rival's color selection is a bit boring compared to some other helmets on the market. There aren't many options.
* The Rival doesnt offer the most advanced protection technology compared to higher-end helmets.
* It might take some trial and error to find a good fit.


### Expert notes ([by elite seller Benaround](https://sidelineswap.com/locker/benaround)) 

Lacrosse players looking for a light and airy helmet on the field should consider the STX Rival. This helmet features an innovative air system, which basically has a built-in pump you can use to adjust the fit for a snug feel throughout the game. No more messing around with pads or straps! The padding is not the most robust on the market, so if you're a super-aggressive player, consider a helmet with a thicker padding system.
