The CCM Tacks 9550 Elbow Pad is ideal for the entry-level or new-to-hockey player! The elbow cap has JDP Technology, an elite-level feature that provides NHL-caliber protection by dispersing heavy impact energy away from the sensitive elbow joint and into the surrounding foams. A three-strap system allows players to fine-tune their fit and a one-piece construction gives players a lightweight feel and maximum coverage.
