Know before you buy
While the Optik 3.0 is designed for high-level offensive play, its stiff construction and forgiving face shape make it a solid choice for developing players who want to improve their stick handling and ball control.
The shortened throat allows you to place your top hand closer to the ball, which provides significantly better leverage and control during dodges and tight maneuvers near the crease.
Yes. The head is constructed from DURATOUGH material, which is specifically engineered to maintain its stiffness and shape regardless of temperature fluctuations or wet conditions.
The 20 sidewall holes provide extensive customization options for your stringing pattern. This allows you to fine-tune the pocket depth and channel to match your specific throwing style and hold preferences.
The increased offset lowers the ball position in the head, which helps keep the ball secure while you are running or dodging. It also contributes to a smoother, more consistent release when you shoot.
