AI Breakdown

At a glance

The Blackout Prototype is noticeably lighter at 325g versus the HZRDUS 5X5's 416g, and comes with a much wider curve selection across six blade options. The HZRDUS 5X5 offers a true low kick point, one-piece construction, and better puck feel through its foam core blade, but you're carrying almost 100 extra grams.
