-
Recreational-Level
Recreational ice hockey skates are built for the new-to-hockey player or casual skaters that are looking for an affordable option. These are great starter skates, especially for youth players.
-
Performance-Level
Performance-level ice hockey skates are a great fit for players who are confident in their skating stride and are ready to take their on-ice performance to the next level. These players are on the ice 1-2 times a week playing mid-to-high level hockey.
-
Elite-Level
Elite-level ice hockey skates are built for the best performance, protection, durability, and comfort. These players are usually on the ice three times or more a week and are playing high-level hockey.
Designed for the competitive player looking for strong performance at an approachable price, the CCM Tacks XR70 Skates introduce a +6 mm internal heel shim that increases forward pitch by 3 degrees. This helps promote a deeper knee bend, quicker transitions, and sharper crossovers, giving players a more natural on-the-toes feel when accelerating.
The 3D MetaFrame One-Piece Boot improves energy transfer while wrapping more closely around the foot for a supportive, responsive fit. Its synthetic composite construction provides dependable stiffness without sacrificing comfort, while ADPT memory foam ankle padding and a heat-moldable design allow players to dial in the fit. A 7 mm felt tongue with injected lace-bite protection adds comfortable coverage across the top of the foot, and the TotalDri Pro liner helps manage sweat and moisture throughout the game.
Underneath, the SpeedBlade XS holder uses a tool-free dial that allows players to quickly replace damaged or worn steel when needed. The removable SpeedBlade XS1 stainless-steel runners provide a reliable edge and make maintenance easier throughout the season. Finished with a flexible tendon guard and Ortholite footbed, the CCM Tacks XR 70 Skates deliver a comfortable, performance-driven setup for players looking to take the next step in their game.
For the ultimate fitting experience that can be done without leaving the house, make sure to first Bake Your Skates at Home and then Check for Proper Skate Fit. If you are still unsatisfied with how they fit and feel, simply use the included pre-paid return label.
