The Nexus E3 is way more affordable and offers a much wider curve selection, but the JetSpeed FT8 is noticeably lighter (66g difference) and steps up to a hybrid kick with better construction. If budget is the main factor, the E3 is hard to argue with, but the FT8 plays closer to a competitive-level stick.
