CCM Premier R1.9 Senior Goalie Leg Pads

New for 2016 is the CCM Premier R1.9 Senior Goalie Leg Pads. Most people would know the Premier Series under the Reebok name. CCM & Reebok have long been the same company, so going forward the Premier Series will be under the CCM banner. The Premier Series has been the popular choice of goalies who prefer the use of the butterfly technique for over a decade. Often imitated but never duplicated, the CCM Premier leg pads has only grown stronger over the years. With new features in 2016 like a thinner profile which reduces overall weight and a new strapping system which helps the pad rotate, CCM has taken a good thing and made it better. The new thinner profile also comes with a deeper leg channel which is also a new feature to the Premier line. This gives the goalie a better feel then the previous Premier lines. Everything about this pad is designed to put the goalie in the best possible position including getting rebounds as far away from the goalie as possible with a very stiff face a 60 degree boot. For a goalie that likes to play big and maximize coverage in the butterfly technique, the CCM Premier is a top choice for that particular goalie.

CCM E-Flex II Vs. CCM Premier

Understanding the differences in goalie pads can be a huge advantage when purchasing new pads. CCM makes two very distinct lines of pads. The CCM E-Flex II is made with the hybrid style goalie in mind. These pads have knee rolls and one break in the vertical roll to help promote more flexibility in the pad. The E-Flex II goal pad also has a softer boot, this help promote more flexibility in the lower leg and foot areas. The CCM Premier goal pads are a flat faced pad. The Premier series pads have been around for years (formerly under the Reebok name). These pad lend themselves more to a goalie that likes to use the butterfly technique for a majority of their save selections. As far as a flat face style pad goes, the CCM Premier has been the number one choice of pro’s for more than a decade.

High Mid-Level Goal Pads Vs. Lower Mid-Level Pads

Mid-level goalies leg pads can be broken down into a higher and lower level. The upper mid-level goalie pads resemble a pro pad very closely and have a high quality rating when it comes to the materials used. Although not entirely on par with a pro level goalie leg pad, the upper mid-level goal pad could easily be used by a upper echelon goalie who plays 3 to 5 days a week. For the most part the upper mid-level goalie pads will have a very similar feel to the pro goal pad. As for the lower mid-level goalie leg pads, the differences in foam and materials can be noticeable. These lower mid-level goal pads are generally in the $ 350 to $ 600 dollar price range. There are no safety issues or functional issues with this level pad, only a durability issue. These pads are meant to be used 1 to 3 times a week, anything more would cause the pad the break down quicker than anticipated. The lower mid-level goal pad is a great choice for the recreational goalie or the goalie who is in the midst of a growth period. Knowing the differences in the higher and lower mid-level goal pad enables the goalie to choose the product that is best for their individual needs.
