AI Breakdown

At a glance

The Code Encrypt is $30 more and uses a hybrid kick point, which gives you a blend of quick release and shot power depending on where you load the stick. The Catalyst 9X3 is the cheaper option with a pure mid kick, meaning it's built around generating power from a deeper load.
