Going in to the new Catalyst PX5 we don't see as many changes from the PX3 as that was already in Trues mind a winning pad, they did some improvements by improving sliding through the crease with there new Diamond Glide material and a stiffer knee stack to help keep the pad sealed to the ice. One other change is a longer FRS strap so you can really get the strap to your liking around your leg. True has also flatter style knee rolls on the PX5 for better rebound control while keeping that traditional look.
