CCM worked very closely with the large stable of NHL RibCor skate users to provide a goal that the RibCor skate be the best Pump skate ever created. Pro feed back led directly to performance enhancements to the Pump, Quarter, Tongue and Tendon. The end result is even more range of motion and flexibility resulting in better agility and tighter turns.

The RibCor 48K Skate features the Advanced Pump™ technology which is the most efficient Pump™ to date proving a personalized fit with added comfort. The RIBCOR FLEX plus Durafilm composite reinforced quarter or boot is for improved rigidity and durability. The heat-moldable FlexCore is lightweight and features a thermoformable core for maximum comfort and reactiveness. The Liner made from a Dual Zone with Duratex grip and Nash + Durazone abrasion patch enhances durability with increased heel lock.

A outsole is made with lightweight composite for increased torsional rigidity for maximum energy transfer and reactiveness. The footbed is the FIT System that provides a stable fit and comfort. A felt tongue with molded lace bite protection gives a pro level feel and protection. The Speedblade 4.0 holder increases attack and angle for greater stride length and cornering. The “sharp” Speedblade Black Runner is treated and will provide a longer lasting sharper edge and is resistant to corrosion.
