CCM Hockey Full Shield Visor FV1 (Senior)

I have been playing beer league, rookie-level hockey for about 9 months. While the metal cage made me feel the safest when it comes to pucks and high sticks, this bubble is pretty rad. It hasn't fogged on me at all, was easy to install on a large Bauer Re-AKT 85 helmet, and makes me feel like my field of vision is maximized. It came with a bag which I keep my helmet in now, and wiping the bubble after a game is a breeze. The screws that came with it worked fine for me, though I did have to pinch the J clips a bit for a good fit. Very easy to flip up if needed. I have heard this bubble is better than Bauer's Concept III, but can't compare as this is my first bubble. Highly recommend!

Fits perfectly on my old(4 years)CCM helmet. Visor is scratch free with no blemishes or marks. Came with necessary attachments and screws. All that appears to be needed is a compatible Helmet. It does fog up but takes a while for it to happen. I was expecting it to happen.

Ok. This is a great bubble. Came in a nice bag with all the materials needed for install. That said, after fiddling with it for almost an hour struggling to get the screws to engage, I realized the little attachment points were upside down (took me that long to look at the instruction manual). Honestly, they look like they should go upside down. The other photo in the reviews has them upside down, which is why he had to get alternate screws. Put them in the right way and it’ll engage relatively easily. The visor will also flip up easily. I’ve included some photos to hopefully help the next person.

This face mask will work well with CCM 210 Tacks if you’ve had a cage on your helmet in the past and already have the side bumpers from that (I am re-using the side bumpers from my CCM cage because the ones provided did not fit). Also, you will need to make a trip to the hardware store for longer screws (pictured- 32 x 1 in). Lastly, I colored the tops of the screws with a black sharpie so they blended with my helmet color. This might all seem like a pain in the butt but luckily there’s a Home Depot 5 min from me and I was feeling crafty today :) I wish there had been a review like this when I ordered the mask, so hopefully this will make someone else’s life easier. BTW- Yesterday a buddy was using the Bauer face shield on his CCM so there are definitely other options but they also might require some tinkering. Good luck!

Bubble seams to be great. Just don’t be a dummy like me and buy the “like new”. It showed up missing hardware and cage stops

Fits my Bauer helmet perfectly, vision is clear, and does not fog up

Works great

THIS IS IMPORTANT: For anyone (everyone?) who finds the provided screws to be too short, they are in fact long enough, BUT the nut receptors into which they thread on the other side must be aligned properly to fit the shape of the holes in the forehead of the helmet AND they must be pushed up from behind into those holes so that the threaded opening of the nut is flush or almost flush with the outside surface of the helmet. If you look into the holes in the plastic of the helmet and see that the nut is recessed, then the screw will not bite. Also, when the screws are tightened all the way, the clips fit very snugly around the plastic bar to which they attach, and the visor does not really have enough play to flip up at anything close to a 90 degree angle. There is maybe an inch of wiggle room, which is plenty for our player to get the helmet on and off comfortably. I have read in some reviews on other sites complaints of the plastic piece to which the clips fasten breaking at the attachment point and rendering the visor useless, and am wondering if that is from the repeated stress of forcing it open, especially if the clips are too tight to allow that freedom of movement.
