AI Breakdown

At a glance

The Proto2 Junior gives you way more flexibility with three flex options and two blade patterns at a higher price, while the HZRDUS PX Pro Stock is much more affordable but locks you into one fixed flex and one curve. Most junior players will appreciate the Proto2's options, but stronger shooters chasing a fast NHL-spec low-kick release will prefer the True.
