AI Breakdown

The Value Blackout is way more affordable and comes in two flex options, but the True HZRDUS 3X5 is noticeably lighter, offers eight different flex choices, and gives you a proven one-piece construction that actually lasts. You're looking at $80 CAD versus $150 USD, so price matters here, but the True stick gives you a lot more versatility if you're willing to spend.
