The CCM FT1 Junior Elbow was developed to be extremely lightweight and improve on its predecessor, the CCM QuickLite line. The new construction focuses on freedom of movement with increased protection.
When looking closer at the protection, the Jetspeed FT1 features a 3 Piece Design with Dry Foam Liner. Having 3 separate pieces attached in unison to your arm creates a level of mobility unseen in the past. Also the closed cell foam absorbs less sweat, keeping the user dry and the product lightweight.
The Bicep is made from a molded RocketFrame Composite Shell. This armour like material gives you the pro level protection you so desperately need. As well a new arched strap has been added to the bicep. This keeps the pad closer to the body without restricting movement.
The Forearm protection offers molded HD / Zotefoam with extended coverage.
The improved strapping system features an Anatomical Neoprene middle strap along with a Nylon forearm strap. These straps combined with the Bicep strap, create a locked in fit to your body.
Overall, the CCM FT1 is the perfect combination of maximum protection with the least weight possible. Loaded with features, this Elbow is worth all the hype it is getting at the professional level, and is an excellent choice for anyone looking for an extra advantage or improved fit.
Player Elbow Pad Sizing
- Things to consider:
- Age, Height and Weight
- Level of Play
- Length of Area of Desired Protection
When fitting or trying on elbow pads, there are a few things to look at to make sure you have a proper fit. To start, make sure your elbow is placed in the center of cup or designated area and fasten the elbow pad using the straps. You will want to make sure that elbow pad is snug and secure and will not slip off the elbow joint. As well, move your arms around with each pad on, range of motion is key, and you will feel mobility differences in each product. If the elbow pad is too big it will shift and slide around on your arm. If it is too small your elbow will feel like it is sitting above the pad.
Elbow pad strapping is semi-adjustable, so if you find a pad that you like the feel of on your arm, adjust the straps until it fits securely. If the strapping feels too tight against your arm and you are unable to loosen it further, this is a good sign that you may need a bigger size. As well if you have fully tightened the strapping and the elbow pad is still loose or shifting on your arm, a size down will probably work better.
When looking at different elbow pads, there are a variety of different features to choose from. Some models will be offered in a soft elbow cap (although this is becoming more uncommon) and other will come with a hard plastic shell. As well, strapping systems can change and straps such as anchor straps or lock strap with provide a better lock to the pad than a regular elastic strap. These features are personal preference and usually are dictated by price range as well as brand. Once you have a feel for what you like or dislike you can narrow your choices.
When viewing sizing online, most elbow pads will be offered in Small, Medium and Large. Sizing charts are provided below and on each product to double check where you line up and as well list all the sizes available. These charts are for reference only and personal preference is a factor as well when looking for the best fit.
Compare your height, weight and age to the charts provided to find your best fit. As well, put on your shoulder pad and gloves and have someone measure the space/gap in between (in inches) to determine the proper sizing.
