The material lay-up ensures a good level of energy transfer because of the high-quality raw materials and unique nano-polymer resins (increasing bonding between layers) used in construction, offering high ball speeds from hitting. The secondary materials used in the construction mean that the stick also provides a softness required for accurate stopping and control and protects the joints of younger players that can suffer if a high percentage carbon stick is used repeatedly. Including m-gel and an active molecule composite material for reducing vibrations this is a superb introduction to the Evolution range.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePRO BEND \u003c\/strong\u003eThe Pro Bend incorporates a near maximum 23.5mm bow positioned just below the mid-point of the shaft. The shaft has then been shaped to give a thinner profile under the right hand and a balance point that favours the head end of the stick.

Increased friction on the head of a stick, as seen on many of the leading brands products, enhances ball control and skill execution. On the Evolution models we have created that friction surface using silicon rather than silica. These tiny (black) rubber particles give a texture to the surface and because they have the characteristics of rubber they can squash (compress) and at a microscopic level provide a degree of 'damping' and assist with stopping and ball control.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePIEZO-ELECTRIC FIBRES\u003c\/strong\u003e Piezo-electric fibres are included in the Evo.0.1 - Evo.0.5 and are used to 'harvest' the vibrations created in these super-stiff sticks and turn them into heat. The result of this is efficient vibration dampening. The materials themselves have been known about since 1880; The Piezo-electric effect is the ability of certain materials to generate an electric charge in response to applied mechanical stress. When piezo-electric material is placed under mechanical stress, a shifting of the positive and negative charge centres in the material takes place, which then results in an external electrical field. As a vibration damping material, the vibrations created from striking a ball create the 'stress' within the Piezo fibres and create an electrical charge (dispersed as heat).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNANO-CARBON TECHNOLOGY\u003c\/strong\u003e Think small and strong. All Mercian composite sticks are made using a complex process of bonding materials together; the smaller the gaps between the materials in these bonds, the stronger the stick will be. Nano-Carbon Technology involves adding microscopic carbon straws to the bonding resins for the purpose of filling these tiny gaps which are otherwise filled only by resin. These hollow carbon straws within the resin provide multi-directional strength between the materials. The result being a stronger and more resistant bond which increases the overall strength of the stick.

The 10% Kevlar increases durability, stiffness, and laminate bonding. The DSH bend features a 4mm scooped face and low-bow profile (23mm @ 270mm) for enhanced ball control and 3D skills. Nano polymer resin creates a flexible but stronger bond between composite layers, increasing stiffness and reducing the risk of de-lamination.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch1\u003eKey Features:\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHigh-Quality Carbon\u003c\/strong\u003e: Preferred carbon from Japan, Germany, Scotland, and South Africa provides stiffness but can be brittle.
