At a glance
The Pro Blackout Red Lite is noticeably lighter at 365g and offers a much wider curve selection, while the HZRDUS 5X5 brings better construction quality and puck feel at a similar price point. If weight and curve variety matter most, the Blackout wins, but the HZRDUS punches above its mid-range category with one-piece construction and a foam core blade.
