The Proto2 is a premium, lightweight mid-kick stick with tons of curve and flex options, while the HZRDUS is a stripped-down pro stock low-kick stick at a fraction of the price. The Proto2 costs nearly three times more but gives you versatility and cutting-edge materials, whereas the HZRDUS locks you into one flex and curve but delivers authentic NHL-spec gear on a budget.
