AI Breakdown

At a glance

The LX3 is noticeably lighter, has a much wider curve selection, and costs $80 more than the Novium 2 SP. If you want a low-mid hybrid kick with a textured blade face and elite-tier carbon, you pay for it, but the Novium 2 SP is way more affordable and still a legit one-piece stick with solid mid kick pop.
