34" CCM Extreme Flex E4.5 Goalie Leg Pads

I’ve used these off and on for the past year. Here is the description from the CCM website: The CCM Extreme Flex series is made for the “hybrid” or athletic style goalie. Goalies that want movement and flexibility choose this style of pad. The CCM Extreme Flex E4.5 Senior Goalie Leg Pads are a lower mid-level pad. Recommended 1 to 3 uses per week. CCM Extreme Flex E4.5 Senior Goalie Leg Pad Features Outer Flex – Single break for maximum coverage. Inner Flex – Pre-curved with single break in the core. Creates the classic s-shape for optimum five hole coverage. Boot Angle – 90 Degree angle creates flexibility for power pushes. Boot Channel – Deep Ultra Soft for comfort and increased pad rotation. Leg Channel / Calf Strap Option – Tight fit with no calf strap. Lightweight setup with an optimized QMSS at calf for a quick response. Knee Strap Option – No strap – 2″ elastic knee for a custom fit. Knee Cradle – Recessed foam with removable knee cradle wrap. Deeper knee cradle to help close the 5-hole quicker! Knee Raiser – Nylon / PE foam helps to seal the pad to the ice Core – Dualite CoreTtechnology – Lightweight goal pad featuring dual flex profile design for quicker transition into the butterly position. CCM Extreme Flex Series Pads Vs. CCM Premier Series Pads Understanding the differences in CCM goalie pads can be a huge advantage when purchasing new pads. CCM makes two very distinct lines of pads – the E-Flex and the Premier Series. The CCM E-Flex is made with the hybrid and athletic style goalie in mind. These pads have knee rolls and one break in the vertical roll to help promote more flexibility in the pad. The 2019 Extreme Flex pads use a new torsional flex foam in the upper portion of the pad (bottom of the knee up) which creates lateral flex in the upper part of the pad. Lateral flex being defined as a twisting motion in the pads. The lateral flex allows the pad to move more independently with the goalie and is generally preferred by hybrid style goalies. Another difference is in the boot angle, the Extreme Flex uses a 90 degree boot angle vs. a 60 degree angle in the Premier.

The CCM EFlex 4.5 pads combine single break outer and inner flex with a soft torsional flex boot. A deep, ultra-soft boot channel allows freedom of movement while maintaining the flexibility and seal needed to close the five-hole effectively.
