Every spring brings us
the newest and most innovative products and equipment hockey manufacturers can
make. This spring is no exception with
Bauer, CCM, Reebok, and Warrior all introducing their newest products to hockey
players of all ages.
Bauer
Supreme TotalONE MX3 Skates
As one of the premier products
in hockey, Bauer Supreme represents top level quality and performance. Bauer is introducing their newest skate, the
Bauer Supreme TotalONE MX3. Innovations
of this top level skate include Curv composite upper and outsole, Tuuk fusion
LS runners (blade holder), injected stability lacing system, and Quickfit
footbed.
As an owner of Bauer
TotalONE skates, I can tell you this is the best skate on the market. Bauer is also claiming this is the lightest
stake to ever hit the market which is impressive considering how light their
current sticks are. The coolest part
about this skate is how easy it is to take the blade out of the chassis, watch
the video. These will retail for $849.99.
Bauer
Nexus 8000 Stick
Bauer’s Nexus 8000
Stick replaces the current Nexus 1000.
This particular stick uses a classic mid kick profile for optimized shooting
at any angle. The carbon composite used
in this stick, TeXtreme Carbon, is 20% lighter than normal carbon. The blade on the Nexus 8000 uses a higher
grade foam layer which prevents the blade from breaking down as fast.

I like the new look of
this stick. I have used current model
Nexus sticks and they look very plain.
The quality and feel of Nexus sticks are great because they are somewhat
of a hybrid between Bauer’s Vapor and Supreme sticks. The Bauer Nexus 8000 sticks retail for
$259.99.
CCM
RBZ Hockey Pants
RBZ has become
synonymous with Taylor Made golf clubs and over the past year has teamed up
with CCM hockey sticks. Now CCM is using
the RBZ name for their protective equipment, like their new CCM RBZ hockey
pants. The back of the pants are
constructed of high density foam and the thighs, kidney, and hip are made CCM’s
Crazy Light U Foam which offers pro level protection.

I like the look of
these pants. I’m glad CCM is continuing
to use their lightweight Crazy Light U material. CCM pants are very protective and are made to
last multiple seasons. No word yet on
how much these pants will retail for but CCM’s current top of the line pants
debuted at $199.99.
CCM
Tacks Skates
For those of you who
remember the iconic CCM Tacks skates, which have been in hiatus for a decade,
CCM is finally bringing them back. New
for 2014, CCM Tacks are reborn offering their Speed Blade 4.0 holder which lets
you stand 4 mm higher, giving you a shorter turning radius.
I grew up wearing CCM
Tacks and if these are anything like the old skates, which they should far exceed;
these skates will be one of the hottest items on the market. Currently Nathan MacKinnon of the Colorado
Avalanche is using these. He will be the
front runner for rookie of the year.
Cost of these skates will start around $899.99.

Warrior’s top of the line gloves, the Dynasty AX1
will replace the current AX2. The AX1 is
the latest and most versatile glove Warrior has ever made. These use classic styling and offer pro grade
protection as well as mobility. The AX1 has Warrior’s Hi-Quality Clarino
Authentic Pro Palm which prevents tears and helps the palms last longer.
