AI Breakdown

At a glance

The Catalyst 9X3 gives you a mid-kick feel at a noticeably more affordable price, while the HZRDUS 9X4 is built for a faster release with its low kick and a softer 90 flex that suits a wider range of players. The main trade-off comes down to shot style and how much flex you can load.
