At a glance
The Proto2 gives you way more flexibility with three flex options and two blade patterns, while the Trigger 7 Pro Stock locks you into one build but delivers a genuine NHL-spec low-kick setup. If you're still figuring out your fit, the Proto2 is the safer call; if you know exactly what you want and skate hard enough to flex a 95, the Makar pro stock is a steal.
