AI Breakdown

At a glance

The Pulse is noticeably lighter at 345g and offers a hybrid kick point that blends mid and low kick feel, while the FlyLite is a more traditional low-kick stick built specifically for quick-release forwards and comes in slightly cheaper. The main trade-off is kick point versatility versus proven low-kick simplicity.
