Overview
The True Hzrdus 9X Stick offers a dangerously quick and effortless quick-release within a featherlight, 383 gram (85 flex) package! True was only able to make this happen thanks to their premium carbon fiber along with standout key technologies like the new ResFlo Resin and TRT (Tri Rib Technology).
Even with one of the best one-piece construction processes in the game, their resin systems and carbon layering processes are making big strides too. ResFlo utilizes even more advanced and lighter resin which acts like the glue that holds the carbon fiber together. Combined with the evolved Precision Laminated Design or PLD that layers them in the optimal method for a final product that is just as strong as before, but significantly lighter!
Unique to the Hzrdus 9X from the rest of the line is the Reinforced Hosel Construction. This connection point between the shaft and the blade is one of the most common spots for breakage and True went to attack this issue directly. Meanwhile, the new TRT or Tri Rib Technology provides excellent response and feel for the puck, and reduces weight in a vital area while maintaining strength and accuracy.

Specifications
| KEY TECHNOLOGIES | |
|---|---|
| ResFlo Technology This next-generation design process reduces the amount of resin (glue) needed to build the stick; resulting in a more consistent and lighter product without compromising strength. |
|
| Tri Rib Technology (TRT) This new three-rib internal structure significantly improves durability and accuracy while reducing weight. The bottom-most rib reinforces the heavily-impacted heel area, while the middle rib is placed exactly at puck-contact height for maximum accuracy. The upper-most rib helps to promote a long-lasting feel and responsiveness while also aiding in accuracy. |
|
| Precision Laminate Design (PLD) An advanced process that uses thinner layers of carbon fiber to create thinner, lighter shaft walls with the same level of strength and durability. |

Sizing Chart
| GENERAL STICK FLEX AND SIZING RECOMMENDATION | |
|---|---|
| We recommend choosing the hockey stick flex that puts your specific height and weight at the middlemost point in both categories. A common rule of thumb is to select a flex rating by dividing your body weight in two and subtracting another 10-15 flex points. See the flex chart and articles below for more detailed information on sizing and selecting hockey sticks. |
