With the Catalyst Pro Hockey Stick, TRUE has created a hybrid of performance and affordability. The mid kick stick integrates various TRUE technologies in its make, including PASS, Axenic Technology, and brand new BAT Technology. It also offers a stiff taper zone, square corner and double concave geometry, and a soft gloss grip shaft for better control and potential in your shots.
Stick Flex Profile
The Catalyst Pro features a mid flex zone for maximum potential in your shot. The stiff taper makes it easy to control the puck.
Shaft Construction
The square corner and double concave style geometry helps with puck control, as does the soft gloss grip. The addition of Axenic one-piece technology means the weight of the stick has been distributed evenly throughout, balancing it and effectively making it lighter. The balancing works with the mid kick point to strengthen shot power while requiring minimal effort from the user. With its construction, the Catalyst Pro is perfect for the stay-at-home defenseman or two-way forward looking to take shots from further out.
Blade Construction & Stiffness
The blade uses various TRUE innovations, including PASS and all-new BAT technology. PASS increases the strength of the blade by 25% above their previous XCORE tech, which means the blade is more durable and longer lasting. BAT technology was integrated for the first time in the 2021 Catalyst series, evolving from TRUE’s previous BRT tech. The blade is built with lower density Aramid fibers instead of carbon, meaning it is stronger, softer, much lighter, and much more consistent.
Graphics
The Catalyst series debuted just this season, introducing brand new graphics into the market. The Catalyst Pro specifically went a step further in their own graphic design, going for a full black colouration with silver accents, compared to the previous iterations, which used gold and black colours. The overall change gives the stick a very clean and sharp presentation.
Grip
The Catalyst Pro features a soft gloss grip shaft, allowing for a strong hold on the stick.
Blade Patterns, Flex & Stick Length
The TRUE Catalyst Pro Intermediate Stick comes in the following blade patterns: MC, TC2, TC2.5, and TC4.
TC2 and T2.5 are the best all-round blade patterns, with a mid-curve style. They are great at handling the puck in small spaces, including face-offs.
MC is a relatively traditional curve. A popular choice in the past, it excels greatly in stickhandling, quick wrist shots, and snappy backhands.
TC4 is a much more curved stick pattern, used often by elite players. This blade curve specializes in quick and accurate shots.
