The next generation of the legendary Tacks name is here and better than ever, and with it comes a beefed up line of CCM’s most durable sticks to date. With RBZ offering a custom kick and Ribcor offering a quick release low kick, CCM caters to the snipers with a mid-kick point in the Ultra Tacks. The Ultra Tacks was designed to provide unmatched accuracy and precision in a high performance lightweight and durable stick. CCM found success with Attackframe technology, which was featured in the original Tacks stick, only to one up it with a much lighter version of the same tech now dubbed Ultra Attackframe. Engineers designed their blade to have a structure with a strong outer frame and two stiffer bridges that run heel to toe. The stiff reinforcements that run across the blade help to increase bending stiffness and torsional rigidity which prevents any twisting of the blade and keeps you square to your target while delivering consistent and accurate shots. By reducing the weight of the blade you get a better overall balanced feel which in turn promotes a higher performing stick and more accurate shots. Another benefit of having this stiffer blade is the durability factor as well as reliability. With the Ultra Attackframe technology, pro testimonials state that their Tacks stick is lasting longer while providing that same feel they had the first day they received their stick, giving them the consistency needed to perform. Featuring Bumper technology in the shaft, the Ultra Tacks stick has become one of CCM’s strongest and longest lasting sticks to take durability to the next level. The majority of hockey sticks break when you receive a slash which then damages a corner of the shaft. Now apply more force onto that damaged area while you shoot or stick check and SNAP! What happened is when force was applied, the layers of carbon fiber started to separate and weaken the stick to the point of breakage. Bumper technology is the addition of more material to the inside of the shaft corners which prevents the separation and breakdown of the carbon fiber layers in the stick. The result is better carbon fiber compaction for remarkable durability and consistency in the shaft. This shaft uses a traditional geometry with square-corners and strategically placed tactile texture is utilized with a grip finish. There is a very slight gradual taper because of the mid kick flex profile to a nice transition where the blade and the shaft meet. On the inside of the matte finished blade, is the Ultra Attackframe tech mentioned above with a lightweight quality foam core between the frame and bridges. CCM is also offering a pro flex in the Ultra Tacks line. The 105 and 95 flex options are available with an additional 3 inch extension in stick length for the bigger and stronger players looking for a stiffer and taller stick. CCM strived for an incredibly durable stick that would provide legendary accuracy and performance. If you are an elite level player that values precision, accuracy, and consistency (all qualities of a sniper), then check out CCM’s Ultra Tacks hockey stick made to light the lamp. Les mer

CCM has taken huge strides to take an already successful product from Reebok and revamp it for 2014! You might be thinking that this stick looks familiar. Previously known as the Reebok RIBCOR, CCM has taken this product and added some key upgrades to a stick that was already top notch. You'll remember that the original RIBCOR displayed the all-new, revolutionary RIBCOR shaft design which features carbon fibers that are permanently in tension. This construction helps to maximize the energy transfer from your hands, through the shaft, and to the puck. Also, returning for the newest RIBCOR stick, is CCM's Tri Matrix fiber construction. This technology is engineered to feature one layer of 90 degree fibers between two layers of 45 degree fibers. These layers are meant to work together, in the sense that the 90 degree layer is ideal for maintaining strength and durability, while the surrounding 45 degree layers are designed to store and release all the energy when you load up your shots! There have been a couple upgrades to the CCM RIBCOR 40K, as there is with any new release stick. First off, the blade construction has been upgraded. This year, the RIBCOR will feature CCM's SSX2 Blade which is the second coming of last year's SSX blade. The blade is built with a stiff heel, and gets even stiffer as you make your way to the toe, which is extra stiff at the end. The blade is designed like this to ensure that it maintains its shape through any and all shots. This means that wherever you launch your shot from, the torsional flex will be limited, ensuring that your blade is facing your target throughout the shot, and keeping your accuracy on point. Also updated, was the way that CCM wil reinforce this stick. We all know the advantages of the RIBCOR design and its tightly wound fibers. They store energy and keep the stick durable. But this year, the CCM RIBCOR 40K will feature CCM's TECHNORA reinforcement. TECHNORA is an aramid fiber that is commonly found in products demanding high durability and performance, such as automobile bodies and wind surfing sails. What this means for your stick is great durability and improved long-term performance! Order one today and discover why CCM chose to throw down all of their latest technologies into the brand new CCM RIBCOR 40K! - See more at: https://www.purehockey.com/ccm-ribcor-40k-senior-composite-stick#product_tabs_description_tabbed Les mer

The Reckoner is the next volume in the Ribcor saga. The stick comes with the traditional Ribcor features which is to provide optimized puck feel, and to give the shooter the quickest release. While also offering the new Reckoner has a concaved hosel section that will replace the previous multiple-rib design, referred to by CCM as PopMatrix Technology. The Ribcor has been among the most popular hockey sticks for Pro Players for the past three seasons! Les mer
