Combined with a reinforced composite thigh rise for ultimate rebound control, the Catalyst PX5 Leg Pads allow goalies to confidently redirect pucks where desired.
External Material

The choice to go with JenPro highlights its demonstrated performance and longevity, making it a reliable option for preserving the appearance and functioning of the pad. This material is highly valued for its resilience to abrasion, guaranteeing durability and strength across a range of circumstances.
Internal Construction
The core features a single break (below the knee). This provides unparalleled agility and flexibility with the single break core below the knee. This innovative design allows for quick movements, precise positioning, and lightning-fast reactions. It is also stiffer due to the reinforced composite thigh rise for tight butterfly and RVH seal.
Pad Break
The Catalyst PX5 leg pads feature a stiff no outer roll break. The streamlined design not only enhances the gear's overall stiffness with less pre-curve, but it also ensures a sleek and clean appearance.
Boot Angle & Toe Taper
The elevated pad on the skate allow for easier pad rotation and greater post coverage thanks to the stiffer, more open boot angle. This design change uses an intentionally wider and reinforced boot angle to encourage a higher positioning of the pad. This alteration guarantees optimal coverage of the goalpost area in addition to improving mobility and agility.

The Fast Response System (FRS), located on the calf, features a dual internal adjustable strap for stability, weight distribution, and enhanced comfort, which optimizes agility and responsiveness providing precise control and support.
Strapping
To keep these pads secure, these leg pads feature the FRS strapping system. This system uses dual internal straps and the hybrid pro laces allow for a firm anchor and no additional stretch when pushing away from post out of the RVH position.
