CCM Super Tacks AS-V PRO Hockey Stick
The CCM Super Tacks AS-V PRO hockey stick caters to players who want both power and shooting accuracy. It achieves this by incorporating a mid-kick flex point that offers a sweet spot between loading power for forceful slapshots and responsiveness for quick releases on wrist shots. CCM introduces the V-shaped shaft geometry in the AS-V Pro, a departure from the traditional T-shaped design. This new feature improves grip and feel, aiding in better shot control. The stick boasts high-end technologies like the ACUFEEL 2 blade with a dampening layer for improved puck feel and control, and Skeleton+ Taper technology for added reliability and durability.
Key features include:
| Modern Mid-Kick Point | A good balance between powerful slap shots and quick-release wrist shots. |
| V-Shaped Shaft Geometry | Enhancing grip and comfort while loading up for powerful wrist shots. |
| Sigma STP Carbon Weave | Keeps weight light without compromising on durability. |
| Acufeel 2 Blade | Gives the blade greater flex and speed with increased resistance to breakage, helping maintain power and accuracy in every shot. |
| Skeleton+ Taper Technology | A reinforcement that helps strengthen the stick on contact with the puck or other possible collisions during play. |

The Nexus Sync uses high mid-kick technology for powerful shots while maintaining decent responsiveness for controlled releases. The Alpha LX Pro takes a different approach, combining its mid-kick flex with Saber Taper technology designed to deliver powerful and accurate releases for a more versatile game. For balanced power with some responsiveness, the Nexus Sync is a good choice, while the Alpha LX Pro leans toward higher power with the ability to unleash quick releases.

The AS-V Pro stands out for its modern mid-kick point, which has been tweaked for easier loading and powerful release, especially on wrist shots. The AS-V Pro comes in a variety of flexes (stiffness levels). If you're a powerful player who shoots hard, you'll want a stiffer flex (around 85 flex). If you have a weaker shot or prefer more flexibility for dekes and dangles, then a lower flex (around 55 flex) would be a better choice.
