Torq 2

### Product Description 

The Gait Torque is a throwback offensive head designed for the sport’s top midfielders. It’s legal at the NFHS and youth levels too, so it’s also a great choice for beginner players looking for a strong and durable offensive head. The head is the first from Gait to feature Gait Canted Technology, specifically designed to maximize offset by gradually lowering the bottom rail. The bottom rail is also flattened to optimize pocket customization near the throat and top of the head. The head also features a flat, stiff scoop to provide great stiffness and durability on ground balls. The head also features inside rib support to create unmatched strength and stiffness by adding more plastic to the piece in between the upper and lower sidewall. 

### Expert Notes

One of Gait’s best known heads to date is the Torque. It's also one of the most advanced heads of its time, featuring "Gait Canted Technology." This head has one of the most curved scoops in the game. Ground balls with the Torque are a breeze, thanks to the deep angle of the scoop. The Torque also features a super narrow face shape, making it an all around great fit for elite middies. With its innovative sidewall and face shape design, stringing this head to your preference is not difficult. You can create a super solid mid pocket with a beautiful channel that will perform amazingly!

# ECD Lacrosse Rebel Lacrosse Heads

The ECD Rebel lacrosse head isn't afraid to shake things up. Available in both offensive and defensive versions, the Rebel caters to players who crave power, precision, and a bit of rebellion.

For attackers, the Rebel Offense boasts a slightly pinched scoop and aggressive flare, promising deadly accurate feeds and scorching shots. Meanwhile, the Rebel Defense focuses on dominance, featuring a tighter face shape for punishing checks, aggressive ground ball pickups, and powerful shots, thanks to its stiff construction. Both options share the Rebel's lightweight design and focus on control, making them well-suited for players who like to dictate the pace of the game.

The Rebel series represents a turning point for ECD, a brand known for its constant innovation and focus on player needs. The Rebel marked ECD's entry into the high-performance head market, carving a niche for players seeking an alternative to established brands.

### Top Competitor Comparisons (O): the [Maverik Optik 3.0](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/lacrosse/sticks/heads/maverik/optik-3-0/l165698) and the [STX Surgeon 900](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/lacrosse/sticks/heads/stx/surgeon-900/l65241)

Designed for offensive versatility, the ECD Rebel Offense competes closely with the Maverik Optik 3.0 and STX Surgeon 900, each offering unique advantages. The Rebel Offense strikes a balance between power and control, featuring a slightly pinched pocket that facilitates strong shots and accurate passing. Its well-rounded scoop aids in ground ball pickups, making it a well-rounded offensive weapon. The Maverik Optik prioritizes power with a deeper pocket and a wider face shape, ideal for players who crank hard shots and value hold for aggressive dodges. Conversely, the STX Surgeon 900 leans towards a traditional approach with a shallower pocket and a balanced face shape, catering to players who prefer a mix of power, finesse, and pocket customization. 


### Top Competitor Comparisons (D): [STX Hammer 1K](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/lacrosse/heads/stx/hammer-1k/l339501) Lacrosse Head and the [StringKing Mark 2D](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/lacrosse/heads/string-king/mark-2d/l759)

Aimed at providing defensive dominance, the ECD Rebel Defense goes head-to-head with the STX Hammer 1K and StringKing Mark 2D, each catering to specific defensive tactics. The Rebel Defense boasts a mid-pocket and a pinched face shape, offering a sweet spot for both powerful checks and controlled ground ball collection. The STX Hammer 1K features a wider face and a shallower pocket, excelling at scooping loose balls and winning ground ball battles in open spaces.

### What people are saying (edited for brevity and clarity)

PROS



* I’ve strung both rebel offense and rebel defense heads. It’s by far my favorite head to string and play with. 
* It’s great for mid and low pockets, and very consistent passing and shooting.
* The pocket was a little shallow at first, but once I broke it in it worked great. 

CONS



* I think the Rebel Offense is a bit too stiff, I prefer a bit more flex for shooting.
* The stiffness of this head impacts the feel and pocket performance.
* A bit expensive compared to other options.


### Expert Review (by [Allen Melick](https://sidelineswap.com/locker/EmpireSports)) 

This head comes in an offense and defense model. The offense is easy to use. ECD always produces a perfect head. It's made with light and durable material. You can get a lot of use out of the Rebel without really trashing it. And the defensive head is made to be stiff. It won't bend in any way, which defensemen like, especially when playing at the higher level. The more checks you throw, the more warped a head can get. The sidewalls are solid on the Rebel. A player can throw some pretty strong checks.

### Expert Review (by [Allen Melick](https://sidelineswap.com/locker/EmpireSports)) 

 
This head is the first generation of the DNA line. It’s designed for all positions. ECD calls it “The Game’s Swiss Army Knife” because of how versatile this head is. ECD’s Flexform material ensures that this won’t warp. Lacrosse fans have seen players like Connor Fields (who represented Canada at the 2023 World Lacrosse Championship) dominate the game with this head.
