The Shot
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 16 июл 2014
- Zack Dorn is a regular guy from Chicago who loves to play lacrosse and possesses the ability to shoot a lacrosse ball 116 mph plus. He works at lacrosse retailer The Lax Shop in Chicago, IL, where he fired off a non-official world record of 118 mph using an Epoch Dragonfly Gen.5 C30 shaft and some Otter Mesh that he grabbed off the shelf. It wasn't long before a video of Zack's 118 mph hit the Internet and went viral. Word spread quickly and with the encouragement of his friends, Zack set a goal to break the record of 114 mph and have it officially recognized. As fate would have it, an opportunity presented itself and he was off to Boston to attend Major League Lacrosse's All-Star Weekend with the goal of winning the fast shot contest in the fan zone and earn himself a chance to go against the pros at halftime. The rest, as they say, is history. Zack shot 107 mph in the fan zone and at halftime competing against the best lacrosse players in the world, Zack set a new world record of 116 mph. "My life changed immediately," said Dorn. "I actually had a kid ask me to sign his forehead and Paul Carcaterra tweeted about me. It was awesome and to have my life change immediately was Epoch."
The following is a behind the scenes film that gives you a behind the scenes look at Zack's preparation prior to the contest and a retrospective look of how his life changed following this historic event.
A special thanks to: Zack Dorn for letting Epoch be a part of this amazing story and journey; Empty Duck Digital (www.emptyduckdigital.com) and String King Lacrosse (www.stringkinglacrosse.com) for manufacturing support of Otter Mesh; The Lax Shop (www.thelaxshop.com) for being such a good partner and supporting Zack and Epoch.
Epoch would like to thank Major League Lacrosse and its players, affiliates and sponsors for being gracious enough for providing Zack the opportunity to showcase his skills on a national stage.

Is that Paul Rabil at 3:23?
+Alex Lefebvre Yes, that's him
I have that same shaft let's see if I can hit 121
There's always that one person who ruins the trend and dislikes... Only 1 dislike
Zac dorn is my older brothers old coach😱😱😱😱
I did a combine with this kid for a summer league once. Im a tendy and he took about 3 shots in our scrimmage and not one hit the net and he didnt move more than like 10 feet. Hes really not that impressive of a player like everyone thinks. He can just fire shots
Now imagine wolf athletics ghost shaft
i wanna see him use the ghost shaft and see if he can do 121 haha
***** he is waaaaay to strong to use a ghost shaft
Does anyone know what flex iq he was using?
+James McCoy Zack uses an IQ5 C30
hahaha using our nets at lynde street park
I want to see 120 from him. I think he could do it
We agree. We have some technology that can help him get there.
give it to him now! I must see it! :(
