CCM Vizion Hockey Stick

Q: Is the CCM Vizion a senior, intermediate, or junior stick?
A: The Vizion line is typically offered in Senior, Intermediate, and Junior sizes. Check the listing title and specs for length and flex. Confirm the uncut length in photos or ask the seller.

Q: What flex should I get in a CCM Vizion?
A: Match flex to your weight and strength, then adjust for play style. Cutting the stick makes it stiffer, so consider choosing one flex lower if you plan to cut several inches. Learn more about hockey stick flex. 

Q: Which curve is best: P28 vs P29 vs P88 on a Vizion?
A: Choose based on your shot style. P28 (toe curve) helps quick release and toe drags; P29 (mid curve) is balanced for snapshots and passing; P88 (mid with straighter toe) aids accuracy and puck control. 

Q: What is the lie on the CCM Vizion, and how do I choose?
A: Most modern CCM sticks use a standard lie around 5.5, which is a middle-of-the-road angle suitable for most skaters. A lower lie (e.g. Lie 5) means the blade sits flatter when you're skating with more knee bend (forwards-lean posture). A higher lie (e.g. Lie 6) means the blade sits flatter if you're skating more upright.

Q: What is the kick point on the CCM Vizion?
A: The Vizion has an ultra-low kickpoint, which makes the stick fast and responsive—great for quick plays and tight spaces—but it comes with a trade-off in raw slapshot power. If your game relies on rapid release over booming shot velocity, it could be a great match. Browse all 

Q: How much does cutting a Vizion stick change the flex?
A: As a rule of thumb, every inch you cut increases effective flex by roughly 3–5 points. Plan your cut length before choosing flex, or use an extension plug to maintain feel. 

Q: Is the CCM Vizion legal for my league?
A: Composite sticks like the Vizion are generally legal in most youth and adult leagues. Verify any stick length maximums and curve limits with your league/association. Confirm blade curve and length on the listing.

Q: How do I choose the right stick length for a Vizion?
A: Start with a length that reaches roughly your chin while in skates—shorter for quick-release forwards (below chin) or longer for defensemen who want reach and power (nose to eyes). 

Q: What should I check when buying a used Vizion stick?
A: Inspect for shaft cracks, soft spots, and blade heel separation; check toe wear and any face delamination. Confirm flex, curve, hand (L/R), and cut length. Review seller ratings and look for close-up photos. See Sideline's buyer protection/returns.

Used checklist:

• Shaft: no visible cracks or “spongy” feel
• Blade: no heel/toe separation
• Hosel/heel: no splits
• Length: measure butt‑end to heel
