AI Breakdown

At a glance

The Code Encrypt Pro costs almost twice as much but gives you a mid kick, balanced feel, and seven flex options to dial in your preference. The True HZRDUS 9X4 is way more affordable, locks you into a low kick and 85 flex, but delivers genuine NHL specs if that fixed setup matches your shot style.
