Warrior Regulator Lacrosse Head

Warrior is on the verge of upgrading their Regulator line with a brand new head, the Warrior Regulator lacrosse head.

The Warrior Regulator lacrosse head offers the brand new patent pending LOC-Throat technology which is designed to help eliminate shaft rattle while adding stability. The Warrior Regulator head also features a mid-high sidewall transition. This will help with higher pocket placement and improve shot power.

Warrior’s Regulator head uses SymRail technology where the interior sidewall mirrors the outer to reduce weight. They were able to achieve this without sacrificing stiffness either, making the regulator head plenty stiff.

Finally, you will find Warrior’s Tru Offset technology present on the Regulator head. According to Warrior, this is a “patented technology that lowers the sidewall in a lacrosse head below the center line of the shaft. By dropping the sidewall below the center line of the shaft, the pocket is physically lowered in your stick, giving you the deepest possible pocket allowed under the rules. Deeper pockets mean better ball control and increased velocity on shots and passes.”

If you’re in the market for a new head, you might want to consider waiting for the Warrior Regulator lacrosse head. The Regulator head will be coming soon to a lacrosse retailer near you and it will be available in five different colors including white, black, red, navy blue, and royal blue. It will also be available in HS or X spec to fit your needs.

Paul Rabil’s Lacrosse Trick Shots with Dude Perfect

It has been a great year for Paul Rabil. After being traded from the Boston Cannons to the New York Lizards in early January, Rabil excelled during the regular season. He scored 24 goals and contributed another 15 assists during the season, and then went on to dominate during the playoffs as well. Rabil and the Lizards would wind up winning the Steinfeld Cup as MLL Champions, and Rabil claimed the Coca-Cola Player of the Game MVP award for the championship.

Through all that success, however, Rabil still found some time away from training to hang out with the guys from Dude Perfect. They filmed and released another epic video, this time centered around Paul Rabil and some incredible lacrosse trick shots.

The Dude Perfect guys also had time to interview Rabil. One of the most interesting things was about his diet. He maintains his peak physical shape by starting his day with a whey protein shake. He’ll also eat 8-10 eggs, mushrooms, spinach and kale for breakfast. For lunch, he’ll eat chicken breast. Rabil adds in two fish per week, usually salmon. He adds that he’ll later eat more chicken, brussel sprouts, asparagus, broccoli, some fruit or berries, and of course lots of water.

Rabil’s hard work and fine tuned eating have paid off in big ways for the lacrosse star. Check out the video below for some of Rabil’s amazing lacrosse trick shots, and a whole lot of awesomeness from Dude Perfect.
