Intro & New Features

Last on CCM’s upgrade list for sticks in 2022 is their low kick series, Ribcor. These sticks look to offer top-tier performance to those quick-hand players who want to improve their game up closer to the goal and the play. The Ribor 86K looks to offer that improved gameplay without having to break your bank. Tech in the 86K includes an Ergonomic “E” Geometry, C6 carbon, and an Ascent Blade 2 with Peel-Ply.

Stick Flex Profile

The 86K is part of the Ribcor family, which is CCM’s low kick point stick family. These sticks gradually get softer toward the blade and bend closer to the hosel, a design that helps them load shots as quickly and easily as possible. This style specializes in quick-release shots and is equipped with various features to support this specific kick point.

Shaft Construction & Stiffness

The Ergonomic “E” geometry in the shaft means that the shaft changes shape across the length of the stick, starting out more traditional at the top and becoming more asymmetrical near the bottom. This approach helps increase your control over the stick while also helping the stick load better.

Blade Construction

This stick is equipped with an Ascent 2 blade with Peel-Ply, which is a bit softer closer to the heel and has some extra stiffness closer to the heel. Blades with this build are best for low kick point sticks like those in the Ribcor family, since you can have more control with a stiffer build while allowing the stick to be a bit whippier. C6 carbon has also been woven into the blade for additional durability.

Graphics

Although visibly a bit different compared to the rest of the 2022 Ribcor series, it still keeps the new dark shade/purple theme. With one of the more drastic visual changes this year, CCM has scrapped the classic green for a black and purple colour scheme, and the 86K specifically includes a silver-coloured shaft rather than black like the rest of the line.

Grip

The Ribcor 86K uses a soft gloss grip, which is a common choice for most hockey sticks since it allows for a consistent and firm hold throughout the entire shaft.

Blade Patterns, Flex & Stick Length

The Ribcor 86K Senior hockey stick is available in the following blade patterns: P29 and P28.

P29 is the best blade pattern for all-around play, with a mid-curve style. It is great at handling the puck in small spaces, including face-offs. This curve may suffer a little bit on the backhand. Due to its balanced design, this pattern can be described as the perfect beginner blade.

P28 is a much more aggressive stick pattern to complement the low kick point. Used often by elite players, this blade curve specializes in quick and accurate shots, but it can be a bit difficult to get used to since it is also very good at raising the puck.
