At a glance
The Tacks XF costs way more but gives you a much wider curve selection and a textured blade face that actually grips the puck better. The Novium 2 SP is way more affordable and still delivers a genuine mid-kick feel with true one-piece construction, but you give up curve options and blade texture.
