I play pickup there on Wednesdays.

In general, "european built specs" means they drop all the useless/non-sense features and simplify the declinations of a model. On a stick, it can merely be getting rid of a silly colorway for something more sober, changing the entire blade by something more traditional and durable, different grip patterns etc. Above all, it shows that manufacturers know exactly what they are selling. They can't afford to sell rubbish in a European market that is very exacting. As for the mako2, I don't really understand why their presentation is so out of it. The stick is great, probably one of the best release of 2013 actually. All the sticks are essentially made of unidirectional fibres, on most sticks only the superficial layer (that is only for cosmetics) isn't. And if the stick got "so" lighter it's simply because they got rid of the kevlar...

Us old guys have to stick together.
