Introducing the all new CCM Ribcor Trigger 8 Pro Youth Hockey Stick, where lighting-quick release meets unbelievable feel! With key upgrades including an innovative foam insert in the heel of the blade and Nanolite Shield technology, This is the best Trigger stick CCM has ever made! Starting with the build of the stick, the Ribcor Trigger 8 Pro features CCM’s new Nanolite Shield carbon layering technology. This reengineered design features two thinner carbon fiber layers stacked between two thicker layers designed to achieve drastic weight reduction without compromising durability. Finally the outer shield made of unidirectional carbon fibers and Sigma STP weave offers increased protection from in-game impacts. The Trigger 8 Pro continues the Ribcor tradition featuring a CCM’s ergonomic E-Geometry, designed to offer a seamless energy transfer that maximizes the speed of release of the puck. Paired with the E-Geometry, the Skeleton+ taper provides better reliability and durability in key game moments. Finally on the shaft, the traditional Ribcor low kick point features a gradual decrease in stiffness in the bottom of the shaft to offer quicker loading and release for pop on every shot. The blade of the Trigger 8 Pro is where CCM takes a giant leap, introducing their DualFeel technology. An innovative dampening foam insert at the heel of the blade better dampens vibrations and improves acoustics when stick handling and passing. However the proven and beloved foam core remains in the middle and toe area to ensure the iconic quick release remains on shots. Finally A Sigma STP wrap offers unmatched durability. If you are an elite player looking for a stick with a low kick point and quick loading feel for quicker releases be sure to check out the CCM Ribcor Trigger 8 Pro Youth Hockey Stick!
