True Catalyst 5X3 2023 Senior Goalie Stick

Catalyst 5X3 features True’s Axenic technology, their patented manufacturing process that produces an ultra-consistent one-piece design for optimal balance, control and feel. Also returning on the Catalyst stick is the patent pending Vibration Suppression System (VSS) at the shoulder of the stick, designed to provide the perfect balance of feel and comfort while making stick saves. Finally, a braided 2 rib design throughout the blade and paddle allows for a thinner, lightweight blade with increased durability.

The Catalyst 5X3 features an optimized mid-kick profile with a stiffer paddle and stronger shaft for easier, faster loading times and more powerful clearances.

Up to the shoulder and shaft of the 5X3 True has returned to a square shaft and a standard shoulder shape for a similar geometry to the HZRDUS that proved to be incredibly well-received.

Finally, True’s Performance Advanced Strengthening System (PASS) offers a less ridged blade core that is designed to withstand higher shear forces to resist breakdown over time.

The TRUE T31 isa popular mid-curve goalie stick pattern featuring a closed heel and an open toe with notable hook. Equivalent to the ubiquitous P31 curve used by Bauer, CCM, and other brands, it is designed to give goalies a versatile hybrid performance for stickhandling, crisp low passes, and elevated board clears.
