At a glance
The Blackout Prototype is noticeably lighter at 350g and built for players who want that true pro-stock feel, but the Classic 2026 is way more affordable and offers a much wider flex selection for players who need something dialed in. If weight and kick point performance are your priority, you pay for it; if value and fit are what matter, the Classic 2026 wins.
