Ccm Premier P2.5 Junior Hockey Goalie Blocker V01

Brand new for 2018, CCM has overhauled their flagship Premier line and brought out the CCM Premier P2.5 Junior Goalie Blocker. Building off of the already successful Premier line, the Premier P2.5 has new specs and pieces of technology sure to turn heads.

Continuing on the success of all Premier style blockers, CCM did not sacrifice their style and protection yet added new specs which create a different function. The first noticeable change is within the backhand wrist opening, now called the One Piece Cuff. The One Piece Cuff spec is a larger piece of foam that wraps entirely around the wrist and fills any negative space between the wrist and back of the blocker board. Goalies will notice this extra piece against their wrist, but it will not hinder mobility.

Next, CCM has utilized a design which is friendly to the younger goaltender. The Premier P2.5 sidewall and index finger area is slightly oversized to still give the goalie the protection they are looking for without prohibiting the goaltender holding their stick.

Another change was done to the sidewall of the blocker. Now, CCM is offering a true bindingless blocker not only on the face of the blocker but on the sidewall too. This provides the goalie with a very clean look, but it also improves the durability by removing the binding that used to stick out and get worn on the side of the stick.

The board itself is made of thick foam with centered hand protection which gives the goalie a natural feel and balance on the wrist. This board is very thick and helps launch pucks into the corner when angled properly. Finishing off the blocker is CCM’s suregrip material which has a slight tack to it, ultimately helping the goalie with the best grip on their stick throughout a session.

Last but not least, continuing on the weight reductions in the pads, CCM has reengineered the weight distribution and blocker foams to give a lighter feel on the goalies hand. This 24% weight reduction will allow for goalies to make even quicker blocker saves and easier stickhandling efforts.

If you are an Entry-level butterfly goaltender who is looking for the a natural feeling blocker with a large blocking board ready to send pucks hard to the corner, look no further than the CCM Premier P2.5 Junior Goalie Blocker.
