Stick Flex Profile
The Catalyst PX is part of the Catalyst family, which is TRUE’s power-focused gear line. As implied, mid kick specializes in adding explosive power to your one timers, wrist shots, and slap shots. This kick point is commonly used by defensemen and forwards who prefer to play up higher in the offensive zone.
Shaft Construction & Stiffness
TRUE reintroduced their PLD tech, or Precision Laminate Design, into the Catalyst PX. As it did with the Catalyst 9X, PLD focuses on ply angles in the make of the stick, keeping it efficient, lightweight, and durable. PLD works with Axenic tech to enhance the one-piece construction and feel that comes with it.
ResFlo is new for 2022 and addresses resin distribution to make sure voids in the construction are minimized. This tech complements the new material advances and lower resin content found in the Catalyst PX, resulting in a 25g weight reduction from the Catalyst 9X while keeping its strength and flex profile.
Blade Construction
The blade features a TRT design, or Tri Rib Tech. This construction reinforces key areas that tend to take the most impact from the puck by placing rib structures strategically along the blade. This results in a more stable and durable blade. The new addition of expanding foam and rib structures extending up the toe add to the stability, effectively increasing strength and accuracy in your shots. TRUE also reinforced the hosel to be stronger, reducing pattern breakage.
Graphics
The Catalyst PX stays with the black and gold colouration of the rest of the line. It also keeps the honeycomb pattern angled along the shaft, in addition to the matte blade. The shaft is adorned with a silver “PX” beside the Catalyst name, differentiating it from the rest.
Grip
The Catalyst PX features a soft gloss grip on the shaft, making it easy to keep a good handle on your stick.
Blade Patterns, Flex & Stick Length
The TRUE Catalyst PX Senior Stick comes in the following blade patterns: TC2.
TC2 is the best all-round blade pattern, with a mid-curve style. It is great at handling the puck in small spaces, including face-offs.
