AI Breakdown

At a glance

The Nexus E4 is way more affordable at $160 and gives you three curve options to find what fits your shot, but it's noticeably heavier at 430g and built as a two-piece stick. The Sherwood Code is a pro-spec stick with the balanced hybrid kick that Tkachuk uses, but you're locked into one flex and one curve, and at $220 it costs more for less customization.
