CCM Hockey and TaylorMade Golf, share the same passion for delivering high performing equipment played by the most demanding athletes, using technical and innovative approaches. As a result, we have entered into a multi-year collaboration aimed at redefining the hockey stick category with game changing technologies.

The first expression of this partnership is the new CCM RBZ powered by TaylorMade. Featuring the revolutionary SpeedBlade Technology providing insane velocity, the face of hockey sticks has changed forever.
The new CCM RBZ features key innovations that will truly classify this stick in a category of its own. Better weight distribution produces a faster swing for a faster puck speed while the constant stiffness profile all the way through the shaft allows for a customized kick point for maximum shot loading. Finally, the revolutionary SpeedBlade Technology TM provides a hot blade face which helps rockets the puck off the blade. 1 2 3 POWER SWING Fine tuned weight & flex distribution provide a faster swing for more puck speed. CUSTOM KICK POINT All new constant stiffness shaft profile provides a precise & customized kick-point for optimal loading. SPEEDBLADE Revolutionary construction with 4 speed channels helps provide a hot face for insane velocity. 1 3 2

Using some of the same principles that power the TaylorMade Rocketballz, the CCM RBZ features a revolutionary new design that completely eliminates foam from inside the blade. Foam absorbs some of the energy from the puck reducing its velocity. With the patent pending SpeedBlade Technology TM the foam is replaced by four speed channels engineered to increase the coefficient of restitution providing insane velocity without sacrificing any control or durability. The C.O.R is also known as the trampoline effect which is the measurement used to determine the amount of energy return at the point of impact. This is a new concept to hockey but one that has been used in golf for several years now in order to assess how to maximize the performance of a driver to increase ball speed. The exclusive Speed Channels inside the CCM RBZ SpeedBlade TM are specifically engineered to help enhance the C.O.R to minimize energy loss for a rocket of a shot.

Our relationship with TaylorMade began a few years ago when we started exchanging ideas on shaft technologies. This evolved into joint research on mutually beneficial materials and concepts for hockey sticks and golf drivers. Over the last couple of years, we ve looked more closely at how we could use some of TaylorMade s technologies to help improve the performance of our hockey sticks. That s when we started working with TaylorMade on new technologies such as SpeedBlade TM. What does RBZ stand for? In golf, RBZ stands for RocketBallz TM, the innovative new TaylorMade golf club that is also the inspiration for the CCM RBZ hockey stick. In hockey, RBZ is the product name.

We ve conducted extensive durability testing on the blade. The three bridges inside the blade actually make it more durable than our normal composite blades. Without foam inside the blade, will I feel vibrations? No. The speed channels inside the blade are specifically tuned to help provide an insane shot while at the same time providing feel and control. Will I shoot harder with this stick? The CCM RBZ stick, powered by TaylorMade has been engineered to provide insane velocity. NHL rookie sensations Gabriel Landeskog and Ryan Nugent-Hopkins both noted that the revolutionary SpeedBlade Technology was giving them more pop off the blade. Try one to feel the difference. Is the kick point low, mid or high? The CCM RBZ features an all new constant flex profile in the shaft. Essentially that means that wherever you place your lower hand is where it will bend. As such, you re able to maximize the loading since everything below your lower hand will bend. In a typical stick, the kick point is predetermined in the construction for a specific type of benefit such as a quick release. With the RBZ, you determine the kick-point.
