Y1 MR X.2 - 26/27

Best for: midfielders who want premium speed on the ball, sharper drag control and a more powerful, responsive low bow feel.

A premium Y1 stick built for midfield players who want quick hands, strong ball movement and a more responsive feel when carrying at speed.

The MR profile is designed for the modern midfielder, using a thinner low bow shape with Y1’s unique Touch Toe head. It gives you the control needed for quick changes of direction, tight skills and confident ball movement through crowded midfield areas.

The Touch Toe head increases the surface area available for left-to-right drags, helping with close control and movement across the ball. Combined with the Y1 Powerbar, the MR gives you extra dynamic speed when dribbling without taking away from slap power.

With 80% premium Japanese carbon, a Swedish X Carbon jacket and Y1’s hybrid carbon technology, this version gives a more powerful and responsive feel than the 70% model while still keeping the control needed for technical midfield play.
