AI Breakdown

At a glance

The Sync is noticeably lighter (365g vs 430g), has a much wider curve selection, and delivers better puck feel through its one-piece construction, but it costs $180 more than the E4. If budget is tight, the E4 still gives you the Nexus mid-kick feel at a way more affordable price.
