2025 CCM Jetspeed FT8 Pro Hockey Skates - Senior

CCM has created their most responsive Jetspeed skate to date. The FT8 Pro skate has been packed full of features and technological advancements, most notably in their Game Ready Fit and CCM exclusive Fors boot construction. Other features include a 205 stiffness rating, ADPT foam throughout the skate, the Step Blacksteel runner, a more aggressive speed pitch, reinforced eyelets and the Speedblade XS holder.

Skate Profile Fit: The FT8 Pro skate keeps comfort at the forefront of their innovations with an improved Game Ready Fit for its third generation. CCM has optimized the anatomical shaping to better lock in the heel and wrap tighter in the forefoot area. The precision provided by enhancing those areas leads to a more dynamic fit for high-level skaters, and when paired with ADPT Memory Foam, provides the player with a snug fit and keeps the foot aligned closer to the natural physiological composition of the foot and leg.

The FT8 Pro Skates come in three fit profiles: Tapered, Regular, and Wide.

Tapered: Narrow Forefoot, Narrow Heel, Low Volume
Regular: Medium Forefoot, Medium Heel, Medium Volume
Wide: Wide Forefoot, Wider Heel, Wide High Volume

These three profiles allow the player to choose a skate that best aligns with their foot profile in a particular skate family, removing limitations on choice based on fit instead of performance benefit.

Boot Construction and Stiffness Profile: Previously introduced in the XF Pro skate, the new Fors Composite construction has made its way into the Jetspeed line with the FT8 Pro. Built into the One-Piece boot, the Fors construction has been designed to provide players with quickness and agility while promoting a better weight-to-stiffness ratio. The FT8 Pro skate has a stiffness rating of 205, an increase from its Jetspeed predecessor, which was rated at 195. This is achieved by weaving together premium composite materials to produce a high-end core, which improves rigidity and therefore the ratio. In addition to the Fors construction, the boot also sees a more aggressive shift in the speed pitch, allowing for quickness on the toe and a more explosive stride which is crucial for play at the highest levels.

Liner and Internal Padding: A TotalDri Pro liner is found in the FT8 Pro skate, which works to wick moisture away and keep feet comfortable and dry. This liner is treated with Polygiene, an antimicrobial technology that fights odor and bacteria so your feet stay fresh during play.

Lacing System: The skate continues to use the standard lacing system, with reinforced eyelets along the top for extra durability.

Tongue: The tongue in the FT8 Pro skate has been maximized for comfort by utilizing layered ADPT memory foam and a molded core, as well as a ribbed central channel that wraps around the foot for ultimate feel and comfort. This tongue also has FlexMotion, a technology that allows for better forward flex and lace-bite prevention.

Steel / Runner / Blade Holder / Profile: CCM has equipped the FT8 Pro skate with the XS Blacksteel runner. This steel is regarded as one of the highest quality options available on the market, with a Diamond-Like Carbon (DLC) coating enhancing edge hardness and glide and an extra 4mm in height over standard runners to add longevity.

The improved Speedblade XS Holder comes stock in the FT8 Pro skate. The quick-release holder and blade lock system have been optimized for quicker changes wherever they may be needed.

Insoles: A molded footbed with ADPT Memory Foam can be found in this skate, with advancements focusing on lightweight comfort and feedback. This insole has heel grip built-in to keep your foot positioned in place during play.

Graphics: The FT8 Pro skate takes after skates in the Jetspeed line, with red and black colouring seen throughout the skate. This years iteration takes on a more fluid design, with red meeting the carbon checkering found on the quarter package and a holographic CCM logo on the side and heel of the skate.
