The Alliance 85 Neon Attack Shaft is the same great handle as the Alliance, just with a little more gusto. The Alliance 85 handle is built with Flex Technology, an exclusive to STX. Flex Technology optimizes performance by matching a specific shaft flex level to a player"s style and field position. A better matched flex profile gives you more velocity and snap on shots. You"ll also notice more precision on feeds, and improved control and ball feel when stick handling. The 85 series is the maximum flex in the Alliance family - it flexes the easiest. Made with lightweight and high strength composite materials, the Alliance 85 features a concave octagon profile and super fine texture to provide the perfect balance of grip. This is a great handle and a strong choice in the crowded 30 Shaft field.
