New for 2019, CCM has developed their newest adaptation in the Extreme Flex franchise. The all new CCM Extreme Flex E4.5 Senior Goalie Stick has a classic feel designed for goalies who prefer a simpler build. Starting off at the bottom with the blade of the CCM E4.5, there will be an Ash blade designed to provide the stick with great impact protection. The paddle on the CCM Extreme Flex E4.5 Senior Goalie sticks paddle is made to control rebounds of the stick while holding up against high impact shots. Moving on up to the paddle of the CCM E4.5 stick, CCM has continued with the Ash build to protect against high impact shots and keep the classic feel. CCM has also added fiberglass reinforcements to the paddle to provide even more durability and keep the construction of the stick relatively lightweight. Finally, the handle and shaft of the CCM E4.5 stick is composed of a multi-laminate shaft to further provide high durability to the overall construction of the CCM E4.5 goalie stick. This multi-laminate shaft protects against wear from shots hitting the shaft of the stick to prevent chipping of the shaft and breakdown. If you are an entry-level goalie who wants a classic feeling wood stick with a relatively lightweight package, the CCM Extreme Flex E4.5 Senior Goalie Stick is the stick for you.
