AI Breakdown

At a glance

The Pulse is noticeably lighter at 345g, comes with a much wider curve selection, and is built with elite-tier materials, but you will pay more than double the price. The FT880 is way more affordable and still delivers a hybrid kick point, but you are giving up serious weight, responsiveness, and pattern options.

Pick the Bauer Pulse

  • You want an elite one-piece build with the lightest possible feel on the ice
  • You need more curve options, especially P88, P90TM, or P92
  • You are an experienced player who can feel the difference premium materials make in shot response

Pick the CCM JetSpeed FT880

  • Budget is the priority and you want a hybrid kick point without spending elite money
  • You are a younger or developing player who needs lower flex options like 40 or 50
  • You play at a recreational or competitive non-elite level where the weight difference will not noticeably impact your game
