Intro & New Features
The TRUE HZRDUS 3X hockey stick offers incredible performance, durability, and playability at an opening price point. A low-kick shaft profile generates lightning quick shots ad explosive releases, and looks great with a matte blade and signature HZRDUS orange splatter design.
Stick Flex Profile
The HZRDUS 3X features a low kick point, which is ideal for quick releases and up-close shots. The low kick profile works in tandem with the light weight feel to enhance the game for players who really love to get in the thick of the action.
Shaft Construction & Stiffness
The shaft features Axenic technology that combines a compression molded shaft into a true one-piece stick. Industry leading Axenic technology results in a seamless build, putting the player's hands in direct contact with the puck. It also features square and double concave corners, which provides the player with a better feel in their hands.
Blade Construction/Stiffness
The Tri Rib Tech structure provides optimized durability in an ultra-lightweight design. Strategic rib placements throughout the blade are designed to match puck impacts points, providing a more stable blade structure on impact, leading to more accurate and powerful shots.
Grip
This stick uses a soft gloss grip which works with the square shaft to provide players with a more natural feel in their hands, helping them hold onto their sticks better.
Blade Patterns, Flex & Stick Length
The HZRDUS 3X Intermediate hockey stick is available in the following blade patterns: MC and TC2.5
MC is a relatively traditional curve. A popular choice in the past in the past, it excels greatly in stickhandling, quick wrist shots, and controlling snap shots.
TC2 is the best blade pattern for all-around play, with a mid curve style. It is great at handling the puck in small spaces, including face-offs. TC2.5 is the same but with a lower lie (5.0 rather than 6.0).

Hockey Player Stick Sizing & Information Guide
Selecting the right stick for you.
When it comes to sizing a Hockey Stick, the length tends to be a preference. Sticks come in Senior, Intermediate, Junior and Youth lengths with corresponding flex options. You will need to consider your weight and height or the person you are buying for in order to choose the correct size. Intermediate, Junior, and Youth hockey sticks will have smaller shaft dimensions, making them easier for young players to hold and control.
A stick can always be cut down in length, and will usually be cut down for kids. However, selecting a hockey stock too long in length or the wrong flex can hinder performance. For kids, junior, intermediate and senior all come in roughly standards length. In some cases, each Junior flex will be a different length of stick. Look at each and compare the height of the player you are buying for.
Flex can be tricky to pick as every hockey player is different and has their own preference. You can think of flex numbers as pounds of force. Having too stiff or too whippy a stick can hinder performance in their own ways.
Personalizing your stick length.
As mentioned before, length is very much personal preference. To determine a benchmark height, stand with your shoes off and the stick against your body with the toe on the ground. As a general rule of thumb we recommend sticks to come up to between your mouth and nose. For kids, or players who are still growing, the maximum height we recommend is eye level.
Mark the shaft of the stick where the height is desired and cut it down to length. Make sure to re-insert the plug from the top to prevent an open composite end at the top of your stick.
When cutting a stick down, keep in mind that the shorter you cut a stick, the stiffer it becomes. As a general rule, a stick increases 3% in stiffness for every inch cut off. If you are unsure how much you want to cut off, take the least amount first so that you can always cut more if necessary. Cutting the stick multiple times will not affect the sticks construction.
Information to Consider
Flex Options
Players want to be able to fully flex the stick. If a stick is too soft, the resulting shot will be inaccurate and weak. If a stick is too stiff, there will be no power behind the shot. Think of the flex number as pounds of force. This is the number of pounds that need to be put into the stick to fully flex it.
Curve Options
In most cases, sticks are offered in multiple blade curve pattern options. Please refer to our blade pattern charts for more information regarding the patterns available.
Kick Point Options
A Mid-kick stick will have a stiffer taper so that it flexes more in the middle of the shaft. These sticks have a longer loading time but offer a more powerful shot, perfect for players taking a lot of slap shots.
A Low-kick stick will have a stiffer middle of the shaft and softer taper so that it flexes at the bottom of the shaft closer to the blade. These sticks will have a much quicker release perfect for quick snap shots and writs shots.
