New for 2022 is CCM’s updated Tacks AS line. The Tacks AS 580 takes the basics and enhances them with the use of an Anatomical Shield Design, a Slash Shield, and JDP caps.
Bicep & Forearm Protection
The forearm of the pad is protected by a tough, injection-molded Slash Shield and covered along the inside with a sublimated liner. The liner is designed with premium comfort in mind and additionally enhances protection.
The bicep is guarded by an articulated, reinforced, two-piece floating guard. The two-piece construction is built to give you pro-level protection, no matter how you move on the ice.
Elbow Cap
The JDP elbow features a molded EVA foam cover to offer elite-level protection. This elbow cap design is wider and focuses on dispersing impact force out and away from the bone, keeping your elbows safe from harm.
Strapping System
The AS 580 uses an ADPTFit strap and a length-adjustable forearm strap to ensure a close fit without interfering with the Slash Shield. The forearm strap is made of tough nylon with a high-tensile weave, keeping it durable and allowing for a fully customizable fit.
Liner
CCM opted for a sublimated liner for their AS 580 elbow pads, which is soft and provides good antimicrobial properties to keep you cool and dry while you play.
Sizes
The CCM Tacks AS580 Senior Hockey Elbow Pads come in Small, Medium, and Large sizes.
