When choosing a new stick, it is important to place an initial focus on kick point. Finding the kick point that matches your style of play will help enhance your shooting and have a positive impact on your on-ice performance. If you’re unsure which kick point is best for you, or you’re looking for an accurate assessment, visit your local Pure Hockey store.

CCM optimizes the low-kick point design in the Trigger 8 stick by using Skeleton+ Technology and Ergonomic Shaft Geometry. Skeleton+ is designed to specifically improve the hosel and taper strength for a much more reliable stick. For the Ergonomic Shaft CCM uses a different design in each section - the top-shaft has a rounded concave shape for increased comfort and control; the mid-shaft has a rounded convex back side combined with a square-cornered concave front for maximum dexterity; and the low-shaft has a concave front and rounded concave back, combining to offer a quick release and maximum accuracy.

For the stick material, CCM includes Advanced Carbon layering throughout the shaft making the stick both light and durable, while the blade is constructed with Sigmatex Spread Tow. This high-performance spread tow fabric features an innovative weaving process that provides lightweight strength and resilience, giving you the feel you want and the structural strength you need from a top-end stick.

The Trigger 8 features CCM’s Agility Blade with peel-ply giving it an improved construction that optimizes the stiffness profile and transitions seamlessly from softer in the heel to extra stiff in the toe. This allows for heightened puck feel and quicker releases.

This stick has very similar features to the previous Trigger 7 stick, but CCM upgraded the quality of materials, and the carbon fiber layers in the shaft. This makes the stick slightly heavier than the Trigger 7 but will provide more strength and better balance. 

The Ribcor Trigger 8 stick is built to keep up with the speed of today’s game and is an excellent option for the players looking for some top-of-the-line technologies but at a lower price point.
