AI Breakdown

At a glance

The Catalyst has a mid kick that generates more shot power on your release, while the HZRDUS has a low kick that gets the puck off faster with less wind-up. The Catalyst is $30 cheaper, but the HZRDUS uses a slightly softer flex (85 vs 100) that might feel more forgiving if you're not a powerful shooter.
