<Custom Rock-It Pocket>

Postby cjlax Sun Apr 01, 2012 10:13 am

Here is the latest addition to the stringing collection. I've based it on a Rock-It Pocket with a few slight differences.

Throws very well and is lightweight for a custom as it only uses two leathers and has a great mid pocket with ample hold. It'll need working in to tighten all the knots but you should let the head do this naturally so the ball sits in the correct position.

I've strung this in an STX Super Power on a Gait DB803 which I picked up from Jay at Northern Soul.

CJ, how have you tied the non-leather leathers off at the top of the stick? I've strung some similarly positioned stringing into a wide head with mesh in but can't get them to stay tied for very long

I did a thread on this a long time ago but can't find it.
Here are the pictures i took at the time if this helps.
With regards to the bottom of the head, they are simply tied in double knots and then a single knot is tied on each string to stop them slipping.

Let me know if you need any more explanation!

Please make a YouTube video of this, I really want to have a go at this myself but can't find anywhere with some videos showing how!
