CCM Ribcor Trigger 6 Hockey Sticks
The CCM Ribcor Trigger 6 hockey stick carries on the legacy of the Ribcor line, known for its focus on quick-release shots. This stick targets offensive players, particularly those who favor speedy wrist shots and puck handling maneuvers. A key selling point of the Trigger 6 is the low kick point design, which allows players to load energy efficiently in the lower shaft portion for powerful and effortless releases. CCM introduces Skeleton+ technology in this iteration, which aims to improve the stick's durability and consistency compared to previous models. The Ribcor Trigger 6 also features a pure carbon shaft for a lightweight feel and an Ascent Blade 2 with peel-ply for better shot accuracy.
Key features include:
Low Kick Point | Designed for a quick release and generating maximum shot power with less effort. |
Pure Carbon Shaft | Constructed with pure carbon technology, making it extremely lightweight and responsive for improved feel and handling. |
Ascent Blade 2 with Peel-Ply | A special peel-ply technology that allows for a stiffer toe section (for harder shots) and a softer heel section (for better puck control). |
Sigmatex Spread Tow Fabric | A high-performance woven material used in the blade to reduce weight while maintaining exceptional durability. |
Skeleton+ Technology | TReinforces key areas of the stick to improve overall stiffness and durability, reducing breakdowns and improving consistency. |
Ergonomic Shaft Design | A different design in each section (top-, mid-, and low-shaft) for increased comfort and control, maximum dexterity, quick release and better accuracy. |
Top Competitors
The Trigger 6 features a low-kick flex point that strikes a balance between quick releases for fast shots and power for powerful slapshots. The Vapor Hyperlite prioritizes speed with its extreme low-kick flex, making it ideal for players who value the fastest releases. However, it might sacrifice some power compared to the Trigger 6. The Alpha LX Pro takes a different approach with its mid-low kick point, which excels for players who prioritize agility, puck handling, and quick releases while still offering some pop in their shots.
Progression of the CCM Ribcor Trigger 6
The CCM Ribcor Trigger 6 follows the Ribcor Trigger 5. The Trigger 6 features a few upgrades from its predecessor:
- Weight reduction: With the new Pure Carbon shaft, the Trigger 6 sheds 10 grams from its predecessor, weighing in at 415 grams.
- Skeleton+ technology: This technology is designed specifically to create a more reliable stick by strengthening the hosel and taper areas.
- Blade: The Trigger 6 uses CCM’s Ascent Blade 2 with peel-ply in order to ensure a stronger blade with the most accurate shots.

👎 Cons |

My son had two of these sticks and they broke in the same spot. |
Not a fan of the low kick point. Does not feel powerful enough for me. |
Not durable, first one broke in the middle, then the second one broke on the heel. |
The Trigger 6 features a low kick point design, which loads energy in the shaft and allows for a quicker release on shots. This is good for forwards who want to get their shots off quickly and surprise the goalie. Also, the Ribcor technology used in the stick's design enhances grip and control, which is helpful for players who like to dangle and make plays with the puck in tight spaces.
