The New CCM Jetspeed FT2 Hockey Skates
Coming April 26, 2019! The newest skate in the Jetspeed line has undergone some significant changes. Most notably, the CCM Jetspeed FT2 has an enhanced one-piece boot, SpeedBlade XS quick-release holder and SpeedBlade XS1 Black (+2mm) steel.
The LiteFrame 360 EVO is a significant upgrade from the previous generation FT1. The seamless one-piece boot contains no outsole, stitching or glue, which creates a high energy transfer zone essentially becoming a natural extension of the skaters foot.
The SpeedBlade XS holder was developed as a quick, easy-to-use system to swap blades out on the fly. The BladeLock technology consists of a positive-lock mechanism that improves on “spring-lock” systems. The holder prevents blades from loosening or accidentally disconnecting from the holder.
The SpeedBlade XS Black (+2mm) steel is a premium oxide blade that holds a longer edge with higher resistance to corrosion. The 12% additional height over standard blades allows for tighter turns and performance.
Sports Etc Performance-to-Value Rating: 10 out of 10. CCM now offers the only true one-piece boot on the market, and adds to it a high performance steel and a quick-release holder that allows players to change steel on the fly.
Available April 26, 2019!
2019 Staff Stick Recommendations For Tourney Time
There is no more important time of year for a hockey player than tournament time! Tournament time is the culmination of the season. It also tends to be the time of the year when your stick has seen better days after numerous slappers, blocks and slashes. Fear not, this is a great time to consider a new stick and we have a few recommendations to narrow down the choices.
Bauer Nexus 2N Pro– This premium, pro level stick is the latest version of the Bauer Nexus line. Nexus stands out as the first of the “Hybrid Flex” sticks featuring a mid-kick point and Sweet Spot Technology for a natural flex. This is Bauer’s most versatile, elite stick.
Warrior QX Pro– A staff favorite for overall performance-to-value in a pro stick. This is the same stick used by junior hockey and college hockey teams. They are exceptionally lightweight and durable, and are offered in an extra tall. The QX line offers a “natural flex” coupled with the Saber Taper and Minimus Carbon 800 for a versatile, high performance experience. Compare this stick to sticks that cost $80-$100 more and you’ll have a new favorite too!
Warrior QRE Pro– Another staff favorite for overall performance-to-value in a pro stick. This is the same stick used by junior hockey and college hockey teams. They are exceptionally lightweight and durable, and are offered in an “extra tall.” The QR line offers a low kick point, the most popular kick point in hockey, coupled with the unique Edge Taper and Minimus Carbon 1000 for a high performance, quick release stick. Compare this stick to sticks that cost $80-$100 more and you’ll have a new favorite too!
CCM SuperTacks AS1– The new SuperTacks AS1 pushes the boundaries of performance and will become the new standard for Mid-Kick point sticks. The stiffness profile has been revisited to maximize loading while providing great stability and control. Not only can players benefit from a great, powerful stick, the feel has been substantially improved. The new X-Flow technology allows for a 10g weight reduction while improving compaction for better durability.
CCM Tacks 9080– Another stick that rates highly in the performance-to-value ratio. Featuring the same mid-kick, maximum loading taper and intermediate geometry as the AS1 in a more affordable stick. At nearly 1/2 the price of an elite stick, this is one of the best deals around.
Introducing the CCM Super Tacks AS1 Hockey Stick- Dare To Dominate!
Just arrived! The 2018 CCM Super Tacks AS1 hockey stick pushes the boundaries of performance and has become the new standard for Mid-Kick point sticks. The stiffness profile has been revisited to maximize loading while providing great stability and control. Not only can players benefit from a great, powerful stick, but the feel has been substantially improved. The new X-Flow technology allows for a 10g weight reduction while improving compaction for better durability.
Check out some of the highlights:
-
KICK POINT: Max loading, mid-kick point. A soft mid-section allows for a longer loading period which increases the energy stored, while the stiff taper maximizes stability throughout the shot
-
SHAFT TECHNOLOGY: X-Flow Technology is an optimized molding technology which allows for better compaction of the stick’s fibers, while also providing increased durability and lighter weight
-
BLADE: ACU3 Blade: A lighter but very stiff layup with a tactile surface for maximum shot control. Also features a reinforced toe and heel for unparalleled durability.
-
INTERMEDIATE GEOMETRY: Designed with the help of Elite women’s hockey players and a cross-section of youth players, rounded corners and concave sides for better control and comfort.
Sports Etc Performance To Value Rating- 9 out of 10- The CCM Super Tacks AS1 is a performance hockey stick offering the most natural flex point of any stick on the market today. The softer mid-section of the stick creates a longer loading period, which maximizes energy and power. Combined with a 10 gram weight reduction, the AS1 is a can’t miss stick for 2018!
Get The Perfect Fit! The CCM 3D Hockey Skate Scanner
CCM Hockey jumps headlong into the 3D skate scanner market with the launch of the new CCM 3D Fit Scanner. The CCM 3D Fit Scanner combines elements of other popular skate scanners resulting in the most versatile scanner on the market. The CCM 3D Fit Scanner can be used 3 ways-
- Skate Recommender- The 3D scanner interface can be used to analyze any set of feet and recommend the ideal size and line of stock CCM skates. It even gives you the second best choice.
- 3D Custom Mold- The 3D scanner interface can be used to order a set of 3D custom molded skates. In this process, a 3D model of your foot is created and a Super Tacks AS1 is pressure molded to the model giving you a perfect fit right out of the box! This process takes about 8 business days and is the best option for a custom fitted skate.
- Total Custom Skates- The 3D scanner interface can be used to create a true custom skate. The process is the same as the 3D custom skate, but your options are greater. Among the options are a choice of Super Tacks AS1, Jet Speed FT1, Ribcor 70K, different sizes for left and right foot, different tongues and many more options. Total Custom Skates take 2-4 weeks for delivery.
The CCM 3D Fit Scanner will be at Sports Etc. Follow us on social media for updates on the CCM 3D Fit Scanner!
