AI Breakdown

At a glance

The Nexus Sync is way more affordable at $340 USD and offers a much wider curve and flex selection, making it the better fit for players who want options. The FT8 Pro costs $50 more and brings a hybrid kick point plus better slash resistance, but the two sticks are nearly identical in weight at 365g vs 368g.

Pick the Bauer Nexus Sync

  • You want more curve choices, including the P92M which the FT8 Pro does not offer
  • You need junior or lower flex options, since the FT8 Pro only starts at 70
  • You prefer a square shaft feel and prioritize puck feedback through the entire shaft

Pick the CCM JetSpeed FT8 Pro

  • You want a hybrid kick point that handles wrist shots and slap shots without compromising either
  • Durability matters and you want better slash protection from AluPli Composite construction
  • You prefer a round shaft and the P29 or P90TM curve options not available on the Sync
