At a glance
The Nexus Sync is a premium senior stick with much wider curve selection and unmatched puck feel, but the HyperLite 2 Junior is way more affordable and built specifically for quick-release junior shooters. If you are buying for a junior player who prioritizes release speed, these two are not really competing for the same skater.
