AI Breakdown

At a glance

The HZRDUS 5X5 costs $70 more but gives you a true one-piece construction, better puck feel, and a low kick point that shooters will actually notice. The Rise is way more affordable and built to survive beginner abuse, but it's heavier with a hybrid kick and basic carbon that performance players will quickly outgrow.
