The CCM Tacks AS-580 hockey skates offer some of the technologies and materials that are found in the high-end Tacks skates but at a mid-price point.

• Molded CCM Ortholite footbed
• Memory foam with seamless comfort padding
• Powerflex Tendon Guard 

Finding the right skate for you means finding the model that fits your foot best. If you’re unsure, or you’re looking for the most accurate measurement you can get, visit your local Pure Hockey. CCM’s Tacks line offers a tapered, regular, or wide fit depending on your foot. This will allow for a customized feel, closer fit and faster strides. For a better understanding of the fitting system, check out our CCM performance fit system video.

The AS-580 has a one-piece quarter package boot and is crafted out of an RFM composite blend. This lightweight composite blend is engineered for the modern power skater with intense strides looking for explosiveness without restriction. The carbon composite wraps under the boot and because of this, energy is no longer lost or absorbed by a glued and nailed outsole, but instead is now transferred directly through the boot to the ice. 

Included with this skate is CCM’s Asymmetrical Tongue that’s reinforced with layers to provide increased comfort and protection. This multi-layer 7mm tongue has asymmetrical flex points for a better wrap and foam inserts to shield from slashes and pucks.

The AS-580 features an unmatched custom feel by making the tongues interchangeable. For additional purchase you can switch out various tongue inserts to optimize feel and protection in your skate. The XS Tongue System gives the player options in thickness to either increase or decrease the inner boot volume to achieve the best fit.

Improved on this year’s Tacks line is the tendon guard. CCM uses the Powerflex Tendon which helps improve the range of motion for fuller strides and increase skating power. 

Helping with the custom feel is CCM’s multi-density memory foam ankle padding. The memory foam padding includes a seamless comfort finish that wraps anatomically around your foot. To help with the comfort is the HD microfiber liner which also prevents against wear and tear.

Inside the boot is CCM’s Ortholite footbed. The Ortholite technology is an eco-friendly design that features recycled EVA foam and provides a lightweight feel and ideal support.

Rounding out this skate is the Speedblade XS Holder. CCM has improved on their spring-lock system to create the SpeedBlade Xchange System; a positive-lock mechanism that tightly secures the blade to the holder and makes swapping out blades more efficient. Using this technology is as easy as rolling the BladeLock dial until you feel resistance, then popping the blade out. Place your new blade into the holder, turn back the dial, and you can be back in the game without missing a shift. Attached to the Speedblade XS Holder is the CCM XS stainless steel runner.

Built with performance and price in mind, the CCM Tacks AS-580 hockey skates offer a great balance between some of the high-end tech used on the top-of-the-line skates at a lower cost.
