- Nanolite shield: This new shaft design optimizes thicker carbon layers around a lightweight core to create a stronger stick that remains nimble.
| 👍 Pros |
|---|
| I love the flex, feel and soft spot near the heel for receiving hard passes. |
| The puck feel and the balanced release point makes it a top of the line stick. |
| Love the softer blade feels. Puck flies off the stick with minimal effort. |
| 👎 Cons |
|---|
| Complete Garbage for durability. Do not buy! |
| I bought one stick and it broke, bought one more and it broke in the same spot. |
| Stick didn't even make it 4 periods of 12u hockey, disappointing. |
The Trigger 8 Pro represents everything CCM has to throw into its battle with the Bauer Vapor. It's great for players who want a quick release, accuracy, and puck feel. Its improvements in durability address previous concerns, making the Trigger 8 Pro a strong contender in the high-end hockey stick market. The low kickpoint allows for rapid shot execution, ideal for players who often find themselves in tight spaces needing to get shots off quickly.
