For the design of the Ribcor Trigger 7 shaft, CCM is keeping their popular E-Geometry shaft. This advanced ergonomic construction was designed by the CCM Performance Lab in collaboration with some of the best hockey players in the world. It is designed to offer a seamless energy transfer to maximize the speed of release. Starting at the top of the shaft, you will find a rounded concave design that allows for advanced comfort and control. As you move down to the mid-shaft, you find a rounded convex back side combined with a square-cornered concave front, which maximizes dexterity and control.
Working in tandem with the E-Geometry shaft, the Trigger 7 will also use Skeleton+ shaft taper. This redesigned taper is a new manufacturing technology which will provide better reliability and durability in this crucial area of the stick. This will allow for better consistency and quicker shot release in those key moments of the game.
To achieve an ultra-quick release for the Ribcor Trigger 7, CCM is using an optimized low kick featuring a soft taper area and optimal vertical flex. Along with their exclusive skeleton+ taper design, this kick point maximizes loading while driving that ultra-quick release.
Moving down to the blade of the Ribcor Trigger 7, CCM is going with an agility blade with peel-ply technology. This improved agility blade takes stick handling and feel to the next level without any compromise on shot release speed.
