 New CCM Visor

Having excellent vision on the ice is something some players are born with, but if you’re one of the few who would like to increase your play making ability, CCM’s new visors offer excellent clarity for optimal vision. CCM has partnered up with Revision Military who are an industry leader in ballistic eye wear and advanced head systems. Bringing their advancements to the hockey world, CCM visors powered by Revision look to change the quality of visors seen on the market today.

 New CCM Visor

CCM Fast-Clip

Fast-Clip is a new, easy quick release system that allows you to swap out for visor for a replacement with ease. Fast-Clip is exclusive to CCM, and is built to resist high impacts to help withstand the forces from the hockey environment.

 New CCM Visor

CCM offers their Fast-Clip system on a couple of visor styles: Straight Certified and Laser Curve. Depending on your on-ice style and protective requirements – CCM has a visor for you.

If you like a more traditional visor, CCM offers their Straight Certified which attaches to the helmet with screws and spacers, without Fast-Clip technology.

Anti-Scratch

With Revision’s military background, their own goggles and eyewear have been thoroughly tested so withstand the harsh environments that soldiers are placed in. Bringing that technology to the hockey world brings about various enhancements to CCM’s visors. Those of us that wear visors always have the constant worry about scuffing or scratching visors. CCM brings a new Anti-Scratch design that is built to withstand tough hockey environments. CCM looks to increase the lifespan of visor and help provide you with the best vision possible.

Anti-Fog

There’s nothing worse than having your visor fog up on you. Period. Continuing to leverage technology from Revision, their integrated coating system keeps the visor dry during ice times. It just might be the end of foggy visors as we know it.

Enhanced Vision

CCM's goal in partnering with Revision was to increase the "Optical Accuracy" of the overall visor. This patented technology allows for optimal vision with minimal distortion on the ice for enhanced vision. The curved nature of a traditional visor can often create distortion when you look around, and CCM’s goal was to limit the overall distortion players see when looking through their visors.

Conclusion

It’s important to have facial protection that you can count on and CCM delivers with this new lineup of visors. The anti-scratch, anti-fog, and optical accuracy create minimal maintenance and superior vision on the ice. CCM's partnership with Revision has brought some important enhancements that will improve the longevity of your visor and improve visibility on the ice.
