Every lacrosse player knows the frustration: that critical moment when weather warps your head’s performance, when a ground ball mysteriously eludes your scoop, or when your shot lacks the punch you trained for. Most settle for bandaids – tape adjustments, pocket re-stringing, or worse, accepting inconsistent performance as “just part of the game.” But these compromises have real costs: missed plays that lose games, extra equipment expenses, and the erosion of confidence when gear can’t keep up with skill.
The Under Armour Command 2 emerges from three years of biomechanical research with Division 1 athletes, addressing these pain points not through incremental improvements but through fundamental re-engineering. What makes this lacrosse head different isn’t just what it adds, but what it eliminates – the very limitations that have constrained players for generations.
The Science of Control: A Three-Level Breakdown
Physical Architecture
The asymmetrical Vertex Rail sidewall creates targeted stiffness where needed most, while the Glide+ scoop’s 22-degree angle and micro-textured surface work like a ski’s edge on ground balls. The full offset design positions the pocket 3mm deeper than standard heads for enhanced ball control.
Material Innovation
Military-grade nylon withstands temperature extremes without becoming brittle (cold) or deforming (heat). The proprietary polymer blend maintains 94% of its stiffness rating across all playing conditions, compared to just 67-82% for conventional materials.
Biomechanical Synergy
During ground ball approaches, the scoop’s geometry creates a “funnel effect” that guides the ball inward. The Vertex Rail’s stiffness profile matches the natural torque pattern of a player’s wrist during shots, transferring energy more efficiently.

From Frustration to Domination: Player Transformations
“After three seasons of adjusting my pocket before every game, the Command 2’s consistency feels like cheating. Rain or shine, it performs exactly how I expect – no more guessing games.”
— Jake T., Midfielder, University of Maryland
“The ground ball difference is insane. I’m winning 50/50 scrums I used to lose, and the ball just sticks to the scoop. My coach actually asked if I’d been doing special training!”
— Sarah L., Attacker, Northwestern
“As a face-off specialist, I need a head that won’t quit. The Command 2 takes the abuse of 20+ faceoffs per game and still maintains its shape – something I’ve never experienced before.”
— Marcus D., FOGO, Duke
The Turning Point: A Season-Defining Moment
The Struggle
April playoff game, 38°F with freezing rain. Your usual head becomes unpredictable – passes sail high, ground balls bounce off the scoop. You compensate by over-gripping, leading to fatigue and missed opportunities. The championship slips away as equipment fails when you need it most.
The Transformation
Same conditions, new season with Command 2. The ball responds consistently despite the weather. Ground balls stick to the Glide+ scoop like magnets. Your shots maintain velocity because the Vertex Rail transfers energy efficiently. You play your game, not the weather’s game – and lift the trophy with mud-streaked confidence.
Why Serious Players Choose Under Armour Lacrosse Gear
Best Lacrosse Head for All Conditions
Unlike traditional heads that warp or become brittle, the Command 2’s all-weather nylon construction delivers consistent performance whether you’re playing in sweltering summer tournaments or freezing late-season games.
Elite Ground Ball Performance
The Glide+ scoop technology gives players an undeniable edge in 50/50 situations, making it one of the best lacrosse heads for midfielders who need to win possessions.
Custom Stringing Advantage
With custom stringing options for personalized pocket preferences, the Command 2 adapts to your play style rather than forcing you to adapt to it – a key difference between Under Armour vs. traditional lacrosse heads.
The Choice Is Clear
The Under Armour Command 2 isn’t just another lacrosse head – it’s a performance multiplier that eliminates the variables standing between you and your best game. For players who refuse to let equipment limitations dictate their potential, the decision comes down to one question: How many plays are you willing to lose before making the switch?
