Gait Inc. and a new stick.

I recently heard about a new stick developed by the Gait brothers called the Gait Air.
As per the website:

• The Air is the perfect balance of strength and weight.
• This superlight and narrow design allows for unrivaled ball control by forming a channel in the pocket.
The sidewall transition angle creates a front pocket towards the scoop allowing you to develop creative stick-work.
• With a lightening quick release from the Air’s lowered U scoop, shooting and passing is amazingly accurate.
• Comes standard with Rail Elite pocket “The games #1 selling custom pocket”
• Full Stick features Gait Carbon+ Mid-size handle

The most interesting piece that I picked up was where they want the player to carry the ball. As you can see in their Instagram post, they are expecting the ball to be carried in a high sweet spot, above the point where the sidewall breaks up.
They even marketed it in US Lacrosse mag as a draw stick, removing the lower shooting string.

Very interesting.
