At a glance
The Tacks XF 70 is way more affordable at $130 and gives you a traditional square shaft with a mid kick point, but it's noticeably heavier at 478g and built for recreational play. The Encrypt Pro is a $330 elite stick that's 93 grams lighter, offers a hybrid kick, and comes in four flex options, but you're paying premium price partly for the Tkachuk signature colorway.
