AI Breakdown

At a glance

The Pro Blackout is way more affordable and gives you curve and flex options, but it runs a low kick point while the Code Encrypt is a mid-kick pro stock built around one specific Nylander setup. If you want flexibility in how you shoot or what curve you run, the Pro Blackout has the edge; if you want a genuine NHL-spec stick tuned for a balanced all-around game, the Encrypt delivers that.
