AI Breakdown

The Blackout Blue Lite is built for lighter-touch intermediate players who want a low-flex mid-kick option. The RPG-Pro is built for stronger players wanting a customizable, durable workhorse at a reasonable price.

Key Differences:

•Weight: Blackout is 10g lighter (365g vs 375g)
•Flex range: Blackout tops out at 60, RPG-Pro starts at 70
•RPG-Pro is custom-built per order; Blackout is off-the-shelf

Verdict:

Pick the Blackout Blue Lite if you are a lighter intermediate player, a younger teen, or someone with a softer shooting style who benefits from lower flex options (50 or 60).

Pick the RPG-Pro if you are a stronger player who needs higher flex (70+), wants a custom build, and values durability. The extra 10g is a non-issue given the flex range and customization you get.
