AI Breakdown

At a glance

The Proto2 is a premium mid-kick stick that costs more but gives you four flex options and multiple blade patterns to dial in your shot. The Project X is way more affordable and noticeably lighter, but locks you into one low kick, one flex, and one blade pattern, so you're either the right fit for it or you're not.
