The StringKing Mark 2G Strung Goalie Head is designed around quick reactions, efficient movement, and control. By reducing unnecessary weight and optimizing the head's design, StringKing focuses on creating a lightweight, aerodynamic setup for goalies who need to make saves quickly and turn those saves into accurate outlets.
The head is strung by StringKing's Pro team and is available with either 2S or 2X mesh, giving players different pocket options while retaining the head's 42-stringing-hole platform.
Ultra-Stiff and Lightweight
The Mark 2G combines an ultra-stiff construction with a lightweight design.
For goalies, reducing unnecessary weight can help make the stick easier to move during quick reactions. The head is designed to support faster hand movement while maintaining the stiffness needed for making saves and controlling the ball.
Optimized Face Shape
StringKing has designed the Mark 2G with an optimized face shape intended to help goalies make saves when they get in front of a shot.
The shape is part of the head's overall approach to creating a larger, more efficient target while maintaining the lightweight feel that the Mark 2G is built around.
42 Stringing Holes for Pocket Customization
One of the defining features of the Mark 2G is its 42 stringing holes.
The extensive stringing options allow the pocket to be customized to a goalie's preferences. The strung version is available with either 2S or 2X mesh, giving players additional choice in how the pocket feels and performs.
This level of stringing flexibility can be useful for goalies who have specific preferences for pocket placement, depth, and release.
Built for Ground Balls and Clears
The Mark 2G is also designed with the transition game in mind.
StringKing specifically highlights the head's ability to pick up ground balls and make accurate clears. For goalies, winning the ground ball after a save or loose possession is only part of the job. The next pass can quickly turn defense into offense.
The lightweight design and control-focused construction are intended to support that transition.
Shortened Throat for More Control
The head features a shortened throat designed to provide additional control.
The throat is an important connection point between the head and shaft, and the shortened design is intended to give goalies a more controlled feel when moving the stick and handling the ball.
Locking Bolt Compatibility
The Mark 2G uses a 2-square locking bolt technology.
StringKing shafts have pre-drilled holes that line up with the locking bolt system. When using shafts from other brands, additional drilling may be required for the locking bolts.
The locking bolts are recommended for stability and durability but are not required. StringKing recommends using a self-tapping screw in each hole if the locking bolts are not used.
The Bottom Line
The StringKing Mark 2G Strung Goalie Head combines an ultra-stiff, lightweight design with an optimized face shape, shortened throat, and extensive stringing options.
With 42 stringing holes, 2S or 2X mesh options, and a design focused on quick reactions, ground balls, and accurate clears, the Mark 2G is built for goalies looking for a lightweight setup with plenty of pocket customization.
