AI Breakdown

At a glance

The Nexus Sync is noticeably lighter, has a much wider curve selection, and delivers elite-level puck feel, but you'll pay a significant premium for it. The JetSpeed FT8 is way more affordable and offers hybrid kick versatility, though you're working with limited flex and curve options right now.

Pick the Bauer Nexus Sync

  • You want the best possible puck feel and feedback through the shaft
  • You need a specific curve like P92M or P88 that the other stick doesn't offer
  • You play at a high level and the price difference is worth it to you

Pick the CCM JetSpeed FT8

  • Budget matters and you want solid JetSpeed performance for $130 less
  • A hybrid kick point suits your shot better than a pure mid kick
  • You shoot in the P28 or P29 and don't need more curve options
