Was a fan of True sticks - not anymore
Son was dedicate to True sticks for years. Last three sticks the toes delaminated and chewed up too easily. Now doesnt want to use True anymore.

The pattern
The TRUE Catalyst 9X is praised for its exceptional lightweight feel, responsive shot, and mid-kick performance, making it attractive for beer league and recreational players. However, it suffers from significant durability issues with blade delamination, cracking, and shaft breakage occurring within weeks to months of use, with multiple reviewers reporting failures well before warranty expiration or after warranty periods end.

Cons
- −Blade delamination

Blade sucks
I bought 2 of these and didn’t use them until I broke my other sticks. Just broke 2 in the same game both by the blade one of them was in warm ups. Terrible stick
