Tacks 9040

# CCM Tacks 9040 Hockey Skates


### Product Description: 


The CCM Tacks 9040 is an excellent choice for beginner and recreational hockey players. It's the most affordable skate in the Tacks line, featuring a comfortable injected mesh boot and a supportive microfiber liner. The pre-sharpened, non-replaceable stainless steel blades allow you to hit the ice right away, while the slightly elevated holder provides a more aggressive skating stride. However, these blades cannot be replaced when they become dull, so this skate is not intended for everyday players. Overall, the CCM Tacks 9040 is a good value for casual skaters and newcomers to the sport.

It occupies the entry-level position within the Tacks line, which has been a mainstay in CCM's hockey skate offerings for many years. The Tacks line is known for its focus on stiffness and responsiveness, catering to players who prioritize powerful skating and good ankle support.


### Perfect skates for:

recreational and entry-level player


### Key features include:



* A synthetic embossed quarter shell for durability.
* Heavy-duty microfiber liner for comfort and longevity.
* A low-profile injected outsole.
* CCM Footbed for support and comfort
* A non-replaceable stainless steel runner.


### Top competitors comparison: the [Bauer Nexus N2700](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/hockey/skates/bauer/nexus-n2700/l9339) and the [True Hockey TF5](https://sidelineswap.com/search?q=True%20TF5). 

The Bauer Nexus N2700 skates offer a comparable level of performance to the Tacks 9040 skates, with a focus on comfort and stability. They feature a durable synthetic quarter package and a comfortable, padded liner for enhanced fit and feel. The Nexus N2700 skates also utilize the Tuuk Lightspeed Edge holder system for quick blade changes. On the other hand, the True TF5 skates provide a customizable fit with heat moldable technology, allowing for a personalized fit that adapts to the unique shape of the player's foot. They feature a composite boot construction for improved stiffness and support. 


### Progression:

The Tacks line categorizes skates based on player levels but doesn't follow a sequential order within each category.


### What people are saying (edited for clarity and brevity)

PROS:



* These skates are a solid choice for players looking for a good balance of performance and affordability. The boot offers decent stiffness for powerful strides, and the steel provides good edge control.
* The SpeedBlade XS steel feels lighter than other models, which is nice. The liner is also comfortable and provides good ankle support.
* I've been using these skates for a few months now, and they seem to be holding up well.  The materials feel solid, and I haven't noticed any major wear and tear yet. 

CONS:



* Compared to some higher-end skates, these don't offer a lot of customization options. The liner isn't thermoformable, so you're stuck with a more generic fit.
* These skates are definitely on the stiffer side. While that's good for power transfer, it might be a bit too much for beginner players who are still learning proper skating techniques. 
* I noticed a couple of minor stitching issues on my skates.  Nothing major, but for the price point, I would expect slightly better quality control. Hopefully, this isn't a widespread problem.


### Expert notes (by [Austin MacDonald](https://sidelineswap.com/locker/dstars79)) 

The Tacks 9040 is a great skate for people wanting to try out the Tacks line but don't want to spend $1,000 on the top model. This skate will have all the comfort features you'd expect, like the moisture-wicking capability and high-quality foam. These skates don't have the quick-release mechanism, which is usually right under the heel. The blades are durable, but after lots of sharpening, you will need to replace the blade over time. The 9040 is a great option for kids and youth skaters who will outgrow the skate before replacing the blade. It's a good stepping stone.

AS-V Pro

# CCM Tacks AS-V Pro Hockey Skates

### Product Description: 


The CCM Tacks AS-V Pro is a high-performance ice hockey skate designed for elite players who demand top-of-the-line features and performance. It boasts CCM's exclusive one-piece boot Power technology for a close fit and superior energy transfer, ensuring that every ounce of your effort is translated into powerful strides. The skate is built with a lightweight carbon composite construction for a balance of power and agility. Additional features include the Powerflex tendon for increased range of motion and the XS Metatomic tongue for protection and comfort.

The Tacks line has been a mainstay in CCM's hockey skate lineup for decades, known for its focus on stiffness and power for a powerful skating stride. The AS-V Pro continues this tradition while incorporating modern technologies for an overall lighter and more responsive skate.


### Perfect skates for:

A player who skates 4-5+ times per week and needs a comfortable skate with top-level performance benefits.


### Key features include:



* One Piece Boot Power quarter package 
* TotalDri Pro+ liner with polygiene for a high-performance moisture wicking 
* Interchangeable, custom fitting Tongue
* Molded CCM Ortholite Ultralite footbed with heel grip
* Composite midsole for enhanced energy transfer
* Memory foam with comfort padding
* Powerflex Tendon Guard with Carbon


### Top competitors comparison: the [Bauer Supreme 3S Pro](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/hockey/skates/bauer/supreme-3s-pro/l65212) and the [True TF9](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/hockey/skates/true/tf9/l163956)

The CCM Tacks skates are known for their advanced features and performance-driven design, offering excellent support and mobility on the ice. The Bauer Supreme 3S Pro skates focus on power and precision, with an asymmetrical quarter package design for improved ankle stability. The True TF9 skates prioritize a personalized fit and enhanced comfort, with True Hockey's custom-fit system based on individual foot measurements. Overall, players should consider their playing style, preferences, and fit when choosing between these high-quality options.


### Progression:

While there isn't a clearly defined predecessor with a single model name leading directly to the CCM AS-V Pro Hockey Skates (released in 2022), there's evidence suggesting it succeeds skates within the Tacks line focused on power and explosiveness. Updates include:



* The AS-V Pro’s one-piece Power boot, an upgrade from the AS3 Pro model, is engineered for explosiveness. 
* New Powerflex tendon guard with carbon, designed to improve your range of motion
* With the AS-V Pro, buyers can now choose which runner they’d like: CCM’s Step Blacksteel, Step V-Steel, or Step Steel 


### What people are saying (edited for clarity and brevity)

PROS:



* The one-piece boot and carbon construction are super stiff and really transfer energy into your strides. My slapshot has gotten noticeably harder since I switched to these skates. Plus, the Powerflex tendon allows for a full range of motion for powerful strides.
* By far the most comfortable skate/boot I've ever put my feet into...like warm melted butter.
* For a high-performance stiff boot, these skates are surprisingly lightweight and maneuverable. The Step Steel blades are sharp and give you excellent edge control. They helped me improve my agility on the ice.

CONS:



* These skates are definitely at the top end of the price range. They're a great skate, but you're paying for the premium features and performance.
* These are very stiff skates designed for powerful strides. They require a lot of leg strength to use effectively.
* The stock laces that come with the skates are just okay. I replaced them with a higher quality waxed lace for a better fit and feel. This seems like a minor detail on a high-end skate.


### Expert notes (by [Austin MacDonald](https://sidelineswap.com/locker/dstars79)) 

The AS-V Pro offers a close, professional fit, and a lot of power. I really love the quick acceleration. The number one thing with this skate is comfort. The padding really secures the ankle and foot while keeping the flexibilityity to turn and move. The tongue has a funky design, but it allows you to get a full range of motion without feeling insecure in the skate or like it's going to fall off or wobble.

Durability: ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Power: ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Super Tacks AS1

### Product Description 

Super Tacks AS1 skates are made for professional and elite level players, and are at the top of the CCM Tacks line. The one-piece heat moldable boot is constructed with a layered Premier Carbon Composite and MonoFrame 360 One-Piece Technology that improves durability and transfers power more efficiently for stronger strides. The boot is slightly taller for increased ankle support and the re-designed toe cap adds comfortable protection. The interior TotalDri Pro Dual-Zone Liner keeps feet dry and skates light while DuraZone Abrasion Resistance Pads provide grip, securing the foot and providing protection against abrasions. CCM OrthoMove Custom Support Insoles allow a personalized fit and increased energy transfer while a re-designed TriTech Flex tongue with injected foam offers mobile protection. The SpeedBlade 4.0 Holder has a triangular design for optimum balance and energy transfer while SB Black Runners have an oxide coating that helps the steel stay sharper longer without corroding.

### Expert Notes

These jets are among the most stylish looking skates on the market right now, and are recommended for elite level players. The black runner steel is a crowd favorite, because it holds an edge longer than standard steel tends to. You can clearly see when there are nicks in the blade, so it won’t be hard for you to figure out when they need to be replaced. These blades are also incredibly lightweight, and you’ll notice this right away when you pick them up. As you would expect with a top-of-the-line boot, they’re very stiff. AS1 skates also don’t have an outsole, so this combined with the stiffness allows for unreal foot control.
