AI Breakdown

At a glance

The Nexus E3 is way more affordable at $130 and gives you three curve options to experiment with, but it's heavier and more basic. The JetSpeed FT8 is a pro stock stick that's lighter and built to NHL specs, but it costs over double and locks you into one fixed flex and curve.
