AI Breakdown

At a glance

The Custom is a budget intermediate stick that saves you money but gives you almost zero specs to work with, while the Prototype is a legit lightweight senior stick built with quality carbon that actually tells you what you're getting. Both cost the same in CAD, but the Prototype delivers way more stick for your money if you can handle a stiffer flex.
