AI Breakdown

At a glance

The RPG-Pro is $15 cheaper, weighs 375g (a real difference you'll feel), and gives you way more curve options with 9 blade patterns versus 4. The Pro Blackout Custom is a gamble because HockeyStickMan lists almost no specs, so you're buying blind on material, weight, and actual performance.
