### Product Description 

East Coast Dyes Hero Mesh is one of the first lacrosse stringing meshes built with two different types of fibers woven into the core of the mesh. This technology is able to increase feel and hold, while also developing rigid sides to literally rocket the ball out of the customized pocket. This is called Zone Tech, in which the inner channel is made of LTH and the outer channel is made of LTC fibers. Since the LTH fibers are softer and more flexible, this allows the ball to be funneled towards the center of the pocket and sit comfortably. The mesh is also hydrophobic, meaning the mesh is unfazed by water. This makes ECD Hero Mesh an ideal option if you’re playing in rain or snow on a fairly regular basis. The mesh is available in semi-soft and semi-hard options in a wide variety of colors and designs, so you can customize it to match your team colors.

### Expert Notes

East Coast Dyes Hero Mesh was specifically designed to give players the most amount of feel and grip while keeping the weave light, durable, and game-ready in all weather conditions. It comes in two different sizes: a 10 Diamond for all field use, including attack, midfield, or defense; or, a 12D option for goalies who are looking for a consistent way to clear and a great mesh for no rebounds. Hero mesh is available in a ton of different colors so expressing yourself is not an issue.

# ECD Lacrosse DNA 2.0 Head

The ECD Lacrosse DNA 2.0 Head builds upon the legacy of the DNA series, renowned for its versatility and well-rounded performance. ECD utilizes their proprietary FlexForm plastic in the 2.0, which is engineered to maintain shape and resist warping even under heavy use. This material also boasts strategic sculpting, achieving a lighter weight while preserving stiffness. This balance makes the DNA 2.0 suitable for attackers, midfielders, and even defenders. It comes strung with ECD's Elite pocket, designed for consistent and accurate release with minimal break-in time. \


The DNA 2.0 exemplifies ECD's commitment to crafting durable and reliable lacrosse equipment for various playing styles. It refines the DNA series, a popular choice for its all-around capabilities while incorporating advancements in material science to cater to the evolving needs of modern players. 


 **Perfect head for:** midfield


### Key Features Include



* FlexForm Plastic maintains shape and improves durability
* Refined and optimized shape reduces the DNA 2.0’s overall weight while pushing the limits of durability and strength 
* ECD proudly designs, tests, and manufactures the DNA 2.0 in the USA


### Top Competitor Comparisons: the [STX Stallion 1K](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/lacrosse/heads/stx/stallion-1k/l316969) and the [Nike L3](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/lacrosse/heads/nike/l3-2/l168650)

The ECD Lacrosse DNA 2.0 carves its niche in the offensive midfield realm, taking on established rivals like the STX Stallion 1K and the Nike L3, each offering distinct advantages on the field. The STX Stallion 1K reigns supreme in raw power generation thanks to its aggressive mid-high pocket and wider face shape. While this excels in forceful shots, it might compromise some control in finesse plays. The Nike L3 strikes a balanced approach with its mid-pocket suitable for both powerful shots and controlled passing. This versatility makes it adaptable to various offensive situations. Compared to these, the ECD DNA 2.0 prioritizes a blend of power and control through its mid-pocket design and focus on quick releases. Its lightweight construction and ergonomic design enhance its performance for fast-paced offensive plays. 


### Progression:

The DNA lacrosse head series features two models: DNA and DNA 2.0. Here's a breakdown of their progression:

[DNA](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/lacrosse/heads/east-coast-dyes/dna-4/l11364)



* FlexForm material helps eliminate warping
* Flowing geometry retains the shape of the head
* Optimized flex points for control
* Designed for maximum durability

 
[DNA 2.0](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/lacrosse/heads/east-coast-dyes/dna-2-0/l331323)



* A refined design that advances the anti-warping FlexForm plastic. 
* Updated material to reduce weight while maintaining stiffness.


### What people are saying (edited for brevity and clarity)

PROS



* The DNA and DNA 2 are two of the most versatile heads ever produced. They are awesome for anyone but a face-off guy and a goalie
* If you are an all-around middie it will work really well. It’s by far the most versatile head on the market.
* The best head release of the year - precise shooting and consistent accuracy with a narrow face shape and mid pocket.

CONS



* I prioritize a super lightweight feel, and this head is slightly heavier than I expected
* It's still on the heavier side of elite heads... and a little stiff at first. 
* I had to spend some time breaking this head in before I could use it on the field. 


### Expert Review (by [Allen Melick](https://sidelineswap.com/locker/EmpireSports)) 

Building off of the first generation DNA, ECD had designed this head to be for all positions from the offensive midfielder to the hard-hitting defenseman. The material of this head helps it hold its shape and improve its durability. It’s lighter compared to the first generation. The DNA 2.0 might not be the flashiest, but it feels like a reliable workhorse that you can count on to get the job done.
