Overview
The CCM Ultra Tacks Grip Hockey Sticks are the flagship model in the 2nd generation Tacks Line. This Ultra Tacks stick showcases CCM's new Bumper Technology that takes durability to the next level. During the construction process, extra material reinforces the inner corners of the shaft, preventing micro-fractures from developing and the carbon from separating.
The Ultra Tacks' stick also utilizes a new AttackFrame™ blade construction. This year's upgrade offers a better overall balanced feel with even more accuracy than before. The AttackFrame™ uses a stiff outer frame with two supporting bridges that run heel to toe. The new design features exceptional torsional and bending stiffness, allowing players to snipe corners with confidence like nothing else around.
The AttackFrame™ was engineered to work specifically with the Ultra Tacks' mid kick point. This traditional, yet unique flex profile has slightly softened ends that supply supreme shot power while maintaining a very quick shot release. Tying it all together is CCM's premium carbon fiber that's visible at the top of the shaft. CCM saved their best carbon for this Ultra Tacks because of it's remarkably lightweight, durable and responsive properties.

Comments: I love this stick.The ultra attack blade is deadly accurate and it never opens up. The mid kick also provides max velocity for my shot. I definitely agree with Chase when it comes to this stick

Comments: As a stick technology nerd, I had to get my hands on this stick once it went on sale. Prior to this, I had been using CCM RBZ/Ribcore sticks. When I first took it for a spin, I was amazed at how different the puck feel was. Compared to the RBZ/Ribcore lines, you can feel everything while you stick handle - I love it!! If you are a power forward that likes to dangle your way around opponents, I would definitely recommend this stick. I have taken it out on the ice multiple times now, and have little to no wear on this stick!
