The CCM Tacks 70 Helmet is an incredible choice for the new hockey player or casual skater looking for immediate comfort and trustworthy protection at an affordable price. While the pro-inspired shell looks just like what the pros wear on TV, the dual-layer foam liner is the superstar of this helmet.
With a dense base foam and a plush top foam, the Tacks 70 balances fit, comfort and impact protection perfectly. The soft top layer shapes and forms to the head for a near-perfect fit while the dense base foam does the heavy lifting for impact management. Finally, CCM designed the foam liner to work in sync with the plastic shell by allowing cooling airflow without compromising strength in the least.
