At a glance
The Code Encrypt 2 is way more affordable and gives you a hybrid kick with more flex and curve options, while the HZRDUS 9X4 Pro Stock is a genuine NHL-spec low-kick stick locked into one flex and one curve. If you want flexibility in setup the Code Encrypt wins, but if you want pro-level feel and a fast release the HZRDUS delivers it.
