Brand new for 2022, CCM is revamping their Tacks protective line. Backed by science, Tacks protection has been tested and validated in the renowned CCM lab to ensure quality and functionality. With updates in the design, protection, and comfort aspects, the CCM Tacks AS-V Pro Youth Hockey Shin Guards are designed to offer max protection while enhancing mobility. Starting at the kneecaps of the Tacks AS-V Pro Shin Guards, CCM went with a molded PE cap designed to disperse impact force away from the knee, keeping you protected from shots and falls. This is perfect for the youth player who might take a few more falls. Just below the kneecap is the molded PE shin cap. This is an anatomical cap design that delivers a high level of protection to the shin area from sticks and shots. This will help give young players elite-level protection. For the calf of the Tacks AS-V Pro, an extended foam calf guard will give excellent coverage for a young player. This will also be anatomical and offer protection for the entire calf area from stick checks and shots. Holding everything in place on the Tacks AS-V Pro Shin Guards is CCM’s upper locking strap plus a comfortable calf strap. This offers ease of adjustability while remaining incredibly comfortable against the leg. These straps will help to keep your shing guards secure in place to prevent them from moving too much while skating. Paired with the straps is a removable D30 comfort liner. This liner will also make it easy to customize your fit while the D30 material adds impact and shock absorption throughout the pad. If you are an elite-level player looking for a maximum protection, comfort, as well as a customizable fit, check out the CCM Tacks AS-V Pro Youth Shin Guards!
