AI Breakdown

At a glance

The 9X4 Pro Stock is way more affordable at $180 and gives you an actual NHL player's setup, but you're locked into one flex and curve with no options. The Smoke 2025 costs more than double but weighs noticeably less at 360g, comes with 15 flex choices and three blade patterns to dial in your preferences, plus better materials for durability.
