AI Breakdown

At a glance

The Pro Blackout is noticeably lighter at 350g and cheaper, but you're locked into just two flex options and paying premium dollars for a budget category stick. The Warrior Novium 2 costs slightly more, weighs about 67g extra, but gives you way more flex choices, a wider curve selection, and mid kick power that's proven for serious shot velocity.
