At a glance
The Tkachuk Encrypt is a hybrid-kick stick built for balanced all-around play, while the Kelly HZRDUS is a low-kick stick tuned for quick releases and is way more affordable at $60 less. The bigger practical differences are kick point feel and flex, since the Encrypt ships in 75 and the HZRDUS comes in a much stiffer 95.
