Who it’s for
- You are learning to skate or starting amateur hockey and are looking for your first skates of your own.
- You skate recreationally on ice rinks and prefer your own, fitted skates to rental ones.
- Your foot is of standard width — the model comes only in the Regular version.
When to choose something else
- You have a clearly wide or narrow foot — the AS-550 does not come in widths other than Regular.
- You play regularly and want to replace the blades — here the blade is fixed permanently; see other hockey skates.
Key features
- 3D Injected Boot
- A shell moulded in one piece keeps its shape and gives lateral support when you push off.
- Core of hardness 115
- According to the manufacturer it ensures confident energy transfer and stability — the boot doesn't collapse at the ankle when you push off.
- HD Microfiber lining
- Abrasion-resistant, so it doesn't wear through quickly at the heel and around the ankles.
- 5 mm felt tongue with foam
- Anatomically profiled; protective foam shields the instep from the pressure of the laces.
- CCM Speedblade blade
- Stainless steel, raised profile. The blade is integrated with the holder and cannot be replaced.
- CCM Footbed insole
- Supports the arch of the foot, which reduces fatigue on longer skates.

Choosing your size
CCM has its own sizing, e.g. size 7 is EU 42 and a 26.0 cm foot, and size 12 is EU 48 and a 30.2 cm foot. The skate number is about one and a half smaller than the US shoe size (CCM 7 = US 8.5), so choose by foot length in centimetres, not by the number.
Measure your foot: heel against a wall, a sheet of paper on the floor, a mark at the end of the longest toe. Use the longer foot and compare it with the length given for each size.
The model comes only in Regular width.
| Insole length | EU size | Availability |
|---|---|---|
| 260 mm | 42 (CCM 7) | sold out |
| 268 mm | 43 (CCM 8) | ships within 24 h |
| 277 mm | 44.5 (CCM 9) | sold out |
| 285 mm | 45.5 (CCM 10) | sold out |
| 294 mm | 47 (CCM 11) | sold out |
| 302 mm | 48 (CCM 12) | sold out |
Measure your foot in millimetres (heel against the wall, to the tip of your longest toe) and choose an insole equal to that length or 2–5 mm longer. Full measuring guide
Care and servicing
After skating, dry the blades with a cloth and dry the boot at room temperature, away from a radiator. Plastic blade guards are only for walking from the changing room to the ice — a wet blade kept in them rusts.
Questions and answers
Are the CCM Tacks AS-550 suitable for beginners?
Yes. This is a starter model for learning to skate and recreational hockey — it gives stability and ankle support from your first time on the ice.
Are the skates sharpened at the factory?
No. Every new pair needs a first sharpening before going on the ice. You can add the service to your order: ice skate sharpening.
Are the blades replaceable?
No. The stainless steel blade is fixed permanently in the CCM Speedblade holder. A blunt blade is sharpened, not replaced.
Are there wide or narrow versions?
No. The AS-550 is available only in the standard Regular width.
How do I choose the size of CCM skates?
By foot length in centimetres. For example, CCM 8 is EU 43 and a 26.8 cm foot, and CCM 10 is EU 45.5 and a 28.5 cm foot.
