AI Breakdown

The Trigger 9 is built for forwards who need a fast-release shot off the rush. The RPG-Pro Boron is built for players prioritizing low weight and durability with customization options.

Key Differences

•Kick point: Trigger 9 is low kick, RPG-Pro is mid kick
•Weight: RPG-Pro is 25g lighter at 345g vs 370g
•Price: RPG-Pro is cheaper at CA$185 vs CA$230

Verdict

Pick the Trigger 9 if you are a forward who lives off quick wrist shots and snap shots in tight spaces. The low kick and proven Ribcor platform make it purpose-built for that style.

Pick the RPG-Pro Boron if you want the lightest possible stick with a mid kick that suits a more versatile shot selection. The custom build is a bonus, though TaggsHockey is a lesser-known brand with no US pricing listed, so factor that into your decision.
