The CCM Extreme Flex E5.5 JR Leg Pads feature lightweight performance and modern technologies to benefit the recreational goalie. The use of CCM’s DUAL1TECORE, SpeedSkin and Quick Motion Strapping System give goalies a great value option.
External Material
The CCM E-Flex E5.5 goal pad is wrapped in CCM’s SpeedSkin material. SpeedSkin is an embossed synthetic material that allows for an easier glide along the ice versus traditional Jenpro.
Internal Construction
The core of the CCM E5.5 leg pads are made up of CCM’s DUAL1TECORE Technology. While also being incredibly light, the DUAL1TECORE gives the pad a different flex profile in key areas. The boot and shin of the EFlex E5.5 are soft and allow for torsional flex, feel and mobility. Above the knee, the pad has added stiffness to maintain seal and structure along the ice.
Pad Break
The break setup on the CCM E-Flex E5.5 consists of one outer break, paired with an internal pre-curved single break. This gives goalies flex at the knee and five hole closure, while maintaining the pad’s seal to the ice.
Boot Angle & Toe Taper
To maintain flexibility and compliment the DUAL1TECORE, the EFlex E5.5 has a deep ultra soft boot channel. This 90 degree boot angle gives goalies a soft feel, while making power pushes and other movements easier.
Knee Cradle
CCM uses recessed foam with a removable knee cradle wrap to allow customizability and comfort. This deep knee cradle is designed to help close the five hole and prevent you from falling off the knee stack, while still having unrestricted mobility.
Knee & Thigh Protection
The E-flex E5.5 does not have any knee/thigh protection included. The wider recessed knee cradle works best with an independent kneepad; a kneepad is also generally recommended for shot and impact protection.
Strapping
The EFlex E5.5 features CCM’s Quick Motion strapping system. Through work with the biomechanics team at Western University, CCM was able to find out what straps were actually needed on a pad, along with which configuration performed the best. The two velcro calf straps and knee strap make the pad lighter, along with giving the pad great responsiveness and butterfly drop speed. The toe bridge of the EFlex E5.5 has a velcro bungee system, in the place of traditional skate lace. CCM’s bungee system is quick and secure, and allows for more flexibility, easing the stress on goalies’ joints.
