Intro & New Features The goal of the EFlex 6 chest protector this season is not only to offer an extremely lightweight option for goaltenders in terms of protective equipment but also to provide amazing ventilation through the use of CCM’s new Aer-Tec technology. In addition to Aer-Tec, the gear also includes D3O foam and a combination of molded HD foams and LD ventilated foams.
External Material CCM is rolling out their revolutionary Aer-Tec ventilation and suspension systems for their 2023 season protective gear, and that includes the EFlex 6 chest protector. Aer-Tec looks to address overheating in protective hockey gear, which is especially important for goalies and with their chest and arm protector. Aer-Tec uses ventilation ports and suspends the gear away from the body, effectively allowing for more cool air to travel through while releasing hot air back out.
