AI Breakdown

At a glance

The Tacks XF Pro is noticeably heavier but gives you a much wider curve selection and mid-kick feel, while the Project X Storm is featherlight and snappy but locks you into just two blade patterns. If weight and quick release matter most, the Storm wins, but the XF Pro gives you way more options to dial in your setup.

Pick the CCM Tacks XF Pro

  • You want a mid-kick stick that loads well for slap shots and one-timers
  • You need more blade pattern options to find your preferred curve
  • You prefer a proven feel over cutting-edge lightweight construction

Pick the True Project X Storm

  • You want the lightest possible stick and quick-release shots are your priority
  • You already know the T28 or T92 curve works for you
  • You shoot in a flex range covered by 65, 75, or 85 and do not need an 80 or 95
