I've been using this pattern on my 900 and i love it. From that point on I started stringing all wide at the bottom heads to the inside and it works great. I do top half standard and then shift the lower half with the 1s and 2s ti the inside. Bought some supercheap RP3 2 heads and made it work with hero and sk for some newer players. Thanks for the tutorial man, hope to get more stringings from you in the future, cheers.
Thank you so much for showing how to string to the inside. For the inside knots you used, are they most similar in their utilization to SI's and 1's or are they more like some other knots?
Best stringing to the inside video on TH-cam. Camera angle is great to see what you’re actually doing. Any chance you can make a hammer omega tutorial? Or a stringing to the inside on the DNA tutorial?
Hey Chris can you do the stringing tutorial for the ECD weapon x with the perfect pocket been trying to but just can’t get it for some reason it would rlly help if you did
Another great vid. 2 things: What is that gimmick you’re using to hold the head? It looks lacrosse specific? And have you tried the ‘reverse’ stacked SI? Any thoughts on it?
1. It's a Lax Vise, and it looks like lax.com still has them. I'd recommend the clamp version (mine is the vacuum version and doesn't work very well) which can be found here: www.lax.com/lacrosse-equipment/laxvise-clamp-edition/97423.html And I'm not entirely sure what you mean by the "reverse" SSI? Do you mean reversing the order of the diamonds? I've tried a few variations of the stack over the years and never found anything better than the standard, but it's always a matter of preference!
@@mainelymesh Thanks! And yes, reversing the order of the diamonds. I’ve been seeing more people using it when stringing to the inside for a smoother transition to the base of the channel. But yeh, def a preference thing
hey man i realize this video was posted a year ago but i just strung my surgeon 900 this way however the ball get stuck in the transition part of the pocket where it’s first strung to the inside. do you have any tips
Step 1 is always to pound out the pocket, but I also made a video recently after this one where I discussed why I stopped stringing to the inside (in part because of problems like that!)
Just depends on what durability you're looking for! X is the lightest, so if you protect your stick well and rarely slash/crosscheck that's one of the spectrum, and the X+ on the other end is the beefiest you can get. O profile is the best of both worlds.
I believe this is Semi-Soft Memory Mesh (came from STX without a box haha). But the same pattern should work for G3 XL, just might have to work it in a bit.
Pro of stringing to the inside: more ball retention. Con: Most heads aren't designed for it, nor are most meshes, so it can be a little finicky depending on the models you are using. Pros of standard stringing: consistent, easy to lock down, easy to make minor tweaks. Cons: none really, just doesn't maximize ball retention like stringing to the inside does.

Great tutorial. Good angle to see the stringing and great job with the voice over.
Chris, you're the best.
So glad he’s back making videos
Great tutorial Chris, really enjoy your uploads.
Thank you so much for showing how to string to the inside. For the inside knots you used, are they most similar in their utilization to SI's and 1's or are they more like some other knots?
Very similar to SI's and 1's. Only difference is that stringing those SI's to the inside locks them down a little more than SI's do
The video drop I never knew I needed

Glad you enjoyed! Unfortunately I don't have a Hammer Omega anymore, but I will be doing a DNA tutorial
How would you go about doing this with a mid pocket?
Hey Chris can you do the stringing tutorial for the ECD weapon x with the perfect pocket been trying to but just can’t get it for some reason it would rlly help if you did
It's on the list! a little further down but it will happen
Mainely Mesh oh ok thanks so much dude can’t wait
@@mainelymesh Great
What pattern do you use for the DNA.

This works on the ion
which STX sci ti shaft should i use with this head?
Just depends on what durability you're looking for! X is the lightest, so if you protect your stick well and rarely slash/crosscheck that's one of the spectrum, and the X+ on the other end is the beefiest you can get. O profile is the best of both worlds.
Can I string a Surgeon 700 like this?
Should be similar, but hold off; I'm about to make a video explaining why I'm not stringing to the inside anymore haha
@@mainelymesh Thanks
Is this G3 XL Semi-Soft?

So what’re the pros/cons comparing stringing to the inside and doing knots (ustring style)?
Pro of stringing to the inside: more ball retention. Con: Most heads aren't designed for it, nor are most meshes, so it can be a little finicky depending on the models you are using.
Pros of standard stringing: consistent, easy to lock down, easy to make minor tweaks. Cons: none really, just doesn't maximize ball retention like stringing to the inside does.
@@mainelymesh thanks a lot
Kinetik 2.0 tutorial?
Working out patterns now!
