Being properly equipped can be the difference between dominating the X and constantly fighting an uphill battle. Warrior has long been a leader in face-off head technology, with the Warrior Burn FO standing out as a reliable choice for many plastic benders out there. Building off the success and foundations of the Burn FO, Warrior has once again looked to change the game with the Burn Formula!
Developed for Dominance
The Burn Formula was developed in collaboration with MVP and face-off athlete of the year, Trevor Baptiste, one of the most dominant players at the X. This alone speaks to the Formula's potential for transforming your game. The head introduces the Blade Rail, a new feature that allows players to “knife” through the ball during face-offs. This design ensures smoother, faster exits, giving you an immediate advantage over your opponent. If you’re looking to increase your efficiency in face-off wins, this improvement is a significant leap from the predecessor, which focuses more on flexibility and shape retention.

Enhanced Stability and Performance
While the Burn FO was engineered for balance and recovery, the Burn Formula takes things further by offering improved stability from the sidewall to the scoop. This enhanced stability allows for better performance during offensive plays, giving you control and accuracy when moving the ball downfield after a face-off. The Burn Formula is not just a face-off head; it’s built to perform throughout the entire game, helping you move the ball with more precision after the initial draw. For players who want to be as effective in between the lines as they are at the X, this feature alone makes upgrading worthwhile.
Winning the Ground Ball Battle
Winning the face-off is only half the battle. Securing the ground ball can be just as crucial, and this is where the Formula shines. Its aggressive scoop reduces drag, making it easier to scoop up loose balls quickly. The Formula focuses on maximizing performance in all areas, including ground ball pickups. For those tight moments where speed and control are essential, the Formula provides a significant edge.

Innovative Torsion Capability
One of the key innovations in the Burn Formula is its torsion capability, allowing it to twist and bend in a way that facilitates offensive plays. This makes it the most offensive-focused face-off head on the market. If you want a head that excels in both face-off draws and field play, the Burn Formula is specifically built for that dual role. The Formula gives you the ability to transition seamlessly from winning face-offs to contributing to your team’s offense.
Compliance and Performance
The Formula meets all NFHS, NCAA, Lacrosse Canada, and World Lacrosse men’s field specifications, as did the Burn FO. However, it incorporates the latest advancements in face-off technology, ensuring that you're not just keeping up with the game but staying ahead of it. If you're serious about maximizing your performance and ensuring you have the best tools available to dominate, the upgrade to the Burn Formula is a no-brainer. It is designed for players who are ready to take their game to the next level, combining performance and recovery into one seamless formula for success.
