While the CCM Jetspeed FT4 SR Hockey Shoulder Pads are technically considered the “model down” from the FT4 Pro, they offer the best value for a pro level protection in a shoulder pad that is also super lightweight.
The FT4 should pad utilizes more molded plastic than the FT4 Pro. While plastic adds a bit more weight, it ultimately provides a higher level of protection. The FT4 fits great and has a great feel off the shelf while providing serious mobility. In summary, it packs in a lot of features to give you the best bang for your buck.
Shoulder Caps & Protection
The FT4 shoulder pads have a low profile design that keeps everything tight to the body. This body wrapping design improves freedom of movement and is especially noticeable during large movements like slapshots. The gear moves with you instead of bunching or bulking up. Not only does it create a terrific range of motion, but the protective pieces keep you covered making plays on the ice.
The FT4 senior shoulder pads use pro-level U-Foam caps. U-Foam has been a Jetspeed staple and is both lightweight and durable. This stiff EPP core offers the rigid protection you want from a pro level shoulder pad to absorb and disperse high speed impacts.
Working in conjunction with the shoulder caps are floating clavicle protectors that are reinforced with molded plastic inserts.
Sternum Protection
The new Hybrid Shield Sternum uses a combination of hard HDPE plastic and PE foam to offer high caliber protection while keeping a low profile. The new sternum design doesn’t add any weight or bulk, but ensures this key area is well protected.
Spine Protection
The new Hybrid Shield Spine and Neck Comfort Pad mirrors the Hybrid Shield Sternum with a combination of HDPE plastic and PE foam. The neck comfort pad allows for full movement without any pressure points when keeping your head on the swivel.
Bicep Protection
The bicep guards on the FT4 allow for a great range of motion without sacrificing protection. These plastic molded bicep guards are perfectly curved to hug the bicep. To get the fit perfectly dialled in, you can adjust the FT4 bicep guard length with a Velcro strap beneath the shoulder cap.
Liner
The FT4 liner is a soft-feel laminated layer that wicks away sweat and offers long lasting comfort and dries out quickly between ice-times.
Abdominal Protection Piece
The vented Flex Motion Base Jacket does the heavy lifting in terms of protection. While the FT4 Pro uses Zotefoam, the FT4 uses PE foam. Extremely lightweight foams wrap around the torso to provide additional coverage in the upper chest, oblique and lower back areas. The removable belly pad allows you to customize the fit depending on your individual build.
