This is our second custom lacrosse head from ESL and we can’t recommend them enough. My son had issues with his pocket when he first started playing lacrosse and after a 5 minute conversation, ESL created a custom head with stringing that made a huge difference
I’ve had E.A. string multiple tennis rackets at different tensions and I’ve been beyond satisfied every time!! You can tell his attention to detail by his tie off knots, which I appreciate! E.A. and the team are definitely ELITE!! 👏🙏
I had know clue just had bad my stick head was until E.A. fixed it! Not only did he restore it but it’s now the best looking head on the field! E.A. and his team are the best of the best!!

Highly recommend using Elite String Lab
EA does a great job stringing sticks. After a quick phone call about my son’s position and what issues he was having he sent us a head that was perfectly strung and completely changed my son’s accuracy and confidence in his stick. I highly recommend using EA for any custom stringing you need.
