Maverik Union Attack Lacrosse Shaft

Description

Material

The Union weighs in at just under 180g, which is almost identical to the Caliber. It’s made from a scandium/titanium alloy, the same material as the Caliber. This type of alloy is a high performer in lacrosse shafts and it’s no surprise we’re seeing more shafts in this alloy.

Shaft Design

The shaft is constructed with Maverik’s own Dynamic Wall Taper process. It is an extrusion process that tapers the wall thickness of the shaft to ensure the material is added to the areas that receive the most contact. It also ensures excess material is not added which makes this a nicely weighted shaft.

Cross Section

The shaft has a traditional shape to it with an ever so slight concave curve on the four diagonal walls. Not too much of a curve that offers a sharper edge meaning more wear, but just enough to provide that traditional feel.

It’s the same old design that has served many a great shaft in the past.

Exterior Finish

The look of the Maverik Union is pretty sleek with a very subtle bead-blasted finish. While the shaft looks shiny, the finish has a very slight grippy feel to it. You could get away with no tape if you’re happy with that sort of style.

Accessories

The Maverik Adjustable Butt-End (ABE) is included in the shaft. This provides a fully adjustable shaft butt end that can not only be attached to the base of the shaft and placed anywhere along it. And … stay in place.

The shaft also comes with a compact tool to adjust the shaft screw as well as the ABE screw. It’s large enough to do the job and small enough to fit into your kit bag.
