Tested frozen vs fresh wings side by side, frozen won somehow

I did a little experiment last night because my freezer had a bag of frozen wings from Costco and I also had fresh ones from the market. Cooked both at 390 for 25 minutes, flipping halfway, no oil just the same dry rub. The frozen ones came out way crispier, like that extra ice layer must steam them first then they crisp up better. The fresh ones were good but a bit chewy on the skin, needed another 5 minutes honestly. I thought for sure fresh would win but nope, frozen took it hands down. Anyone else tried this or am I doing something wrong with fresh ones? Maybe I need to dry them out more before air frying?
