AI Breakdown

At a glance

The Bauer Vapor FlyPro 2025 is noticeably lighter at 400g and gives you two curve choices, making it a more versatile option for most forwards at a fair price. The Sherwood Code Encrypt Pro is a locked-in pro-spec build with a mid-kick hybrid design that matches what NHL players use, but you get only one flex and curve, plus it costs the same without knowing the exact weight.
