The CCM Tacks AS-V Pro Youth Pants are absolutely ideal for the young player who isn't afraid to battle along the boards or in front of the net. It offers maximum coverage and elite-level protection in key impact areas, including D30 Foam in the tailbone pad. D30 is rate sensitive, meaning it reacts quickly upon taking an impact or spill to the ice and absorbs the energy. The spine guard is built with molded high-density foam for more elite-level protection while remaining lightweight. Players will enjoy a fit that stays secure thanks to the internal stretch belt and external nylon belt. This design also makes taking the pants on and off much easier. The AS-V Pro has a 1" extension system so players who quickly grow during and after a season will have added length when they need it! Lastly, the shell is lightweight yet super durable to wear and tear while the liner adds soft comfort and handles sweat and moisture easily.
