AI Breakdown

At a glance

The Pro Blackout Prototype is noticeably lighter and way more affordable, with a much wider curve selection for players still finding their fit. The Novium 2 Pro is a heavier senior-level stick built with elite materials, but it costs more than double and locks you into two blade patterns and two flex options.
