TRUE Project X Glitch Reshapes the Player Stick Shaft
Retailer specifications describe alternating concave and convex SYNTAX geometry, paired with a dual zone flex profile intended to reduce changes in hand position.
TRUE's Project X Glitch player stick brings a different shaft shape to the Project X name. Source for Sports describes its SYNTAX geometry as an alternating concave and convex profile, with a tactile grip finish. The Hockey Shop's November 1 breakdown independently describes the same construction.
The intended benefit, according to TRUE's claims as presented in Source for Sports' copy, is a stable top hand while the lower hand remains free to load and release. The manufacturer frames that combination around disguising a shot: keeping hand position consistent should give defenders fewer visible cues. That is a design claim, rather than a measured improvement established by The Lab.
How the flex profile fits
Source for Sports labels the construction a mid kick dual zone profile and describes it as combining a low kick release with mid kick control. The same specification section also uses the term low kick response. The Hockey Shop explains the arrangement in similar terms, linking the geometry and grip to puck control and fewer hand adjustments. These descriptions establish the advertised design intent; they do not quantify release time or shooting speed.
Canadian configurations
On November 1, 2026, Source for Sports listed the senior player stick at CA$429.99. Its actual variant records include left and right handed 75 and 85 flex sticks in T28, T86 and T92. The only 65 flex configuration in those records is right handed T86, so the option menus should not be read as every possible combination. Confirm local fulfilment with the seller.
This report concerns the player stick. The separately listed Glitch goalie model uses a different grip and kick description, and its specifications should not be transferred to the player version.
