AI Breakdown

At a glance

The Pro Blackout is way more affordable at $180 CAD with a lighter feel at 400g and gives you two flex and curve options to dial in your preference. The True Catalyst is a pro stock build that locks you into one stiff flex and curve, but you're getting an actual NHL player's specs if that mid-kick power shot style matches your game.
