The ICE model featured an entirely new design with some exciting new benefits.

Their formula is a close company secret just like Colonel Sanders special KFC recipe.
At a glance, it would appear that the ICE model is intended for speed while the ONE model is for weighted use. HWA have actually created the ONE with the intension of it being a strength building training aid while the ICE is to enable players to practice and play hockey anywhere without the fear of ruining their expensive composite sticks.
The significants of understanding each products purpose reveals that players should strongly consider both as their primary choice. The ICE and ONE go hand in hand allow players to get more of a complete off ice training experience.
