It looks as though Easton Hockey will be reviving their popular Synergy name with a new line of sticks in 2014. The upcoming Easton Synergy HTX stick has started to leak online, and it has a solid look to it.
The Easton Synergy HTX stick will feature Hypertuned technology which is said to take loading and release to a new level. According to Easton, Hypertuned technology “tailors the flex of each blade specifically to the shaft flex to create a more responsive blade for every player.” So essentially, an 85 flex shaft will have a tuned blade stiffness specifically for that 85 flex shaft. Likewise, the 100 flex shaft will have a blade tuned for that, and so on.
Additionally, the Easton Synergy HTX stick will utilize Hypertoe technology. This is also used on the V9 and V9E sticks and combines a stiffer toe with a softened taper to create more force with the same load.
Easton’s new Synergy HTX stick will be available in senior, intermediate, junior and youth sizes. Senior sizes will feature 110, 100, 85 and 75 flexes, with a variety of patterns.

Does this mean that Easton is getting rid of the Mako line?
Let me rephrase that, will this line be replacing the Mako line?
Ya that stopped a year ago, the v9 replaced the mako and the v9e replaced the rs/rs2
Easton should make the easton stealth hsx with an elliptical taper
Any idea when this will be released? Any new curves?
the easton hyx looks sick when do you think they will arive in fredericton and at what price also what will happen to the following lines stealth, mako, and volocity
Just got one there fantastic Kane curve
Used it for the first time today I have to say it’s Easton’s best stick yet! Bravo
Sounds good. Cant wait to try it out and see how it performs for me!
Tate kehoe how did u try it, it isn’t out yet
Ive already seen so many break when the pros use them on key shots maybe they just aren’t fully developed yet but something needs to be done
can’t wait til’ it comes out!
anyone know when they will be released?
I will be out in about 2 weeks I saw one at the easton hockey shop and the red one has no grip and the none red one has grip
its not out yet…
Just got one of these and I cut a couple inches off and inside was a sticker saying v9e shaft 85 flex
so its just a v9e?
is it out in stores?
No. It is not the v9e. The shaft is designed the same way besides the flex’s kick point. But the rest of the stick is all the same as the v9e, but just newer and better.
This thing is for amateurs. I’ll stick with the Mako.
I own it, it’s incredibly light weight. It’s a masterpiece.
Have owned two Easton Synergy HTX sticks in last 45 days and both have started to peel and splinter at the heel near start of shaft… Love the stick, only use Easton. Is this isolated concern?
