Great video, very interesting. But maybe you guys should watch speedskaters too, I think it is about bending the ankle and keeping it bend during the push.

@Infiniti25 2 жыл бұрын

If you can skate you are half way there, never too late to start. Hey even Bill Burr plays “pick up” hockey. A few of the guys at various sessions I’ve played at and currently play at have people in their 60’s playing who might not have speed on their skates, but they have poise and great stick handling and vision for passes that break out of defence or into the offensive zones. If you can afford it, give it a try. I think you will easily transition to hockey if you have the hockey mentality and buy the kit.

I feel like from my own life experience... a lot of times kids cant learn technique like this toes one because they just aren’t able physically- the one kid who can I would be curious what he does off ice, as in stretches / exercises etc - you know what you need to do but just can’t sometimes

@isthatujeebus 2 жыл бұрын

Yeah. It's all well and good saying "get on your toes" but if you don't tell them HOW they can get up there then it's a bit useless. Requires a lot of balance and ankle strength/mobility.

I agree with this, and the other attached comment. The number of times this coach blows his whistle right after he's just told them, "goh!" simply to stop them after one line goes and says "hey.." drives me nuts. Give the kids a chance to try. Explain how to be on your toes better. Also that comment about stabbing a guy? Odd

I wish I did ice hockey as a kid. I did roller hockey from 11years old so there was some difference in learning how to skate the most notable being stopping. This drill would have been nicer for me on ice than it was on roller, less slide on a plastic sports court for something this short of a distance.

Not trying to sounds condescending but this doesn't work on becoming a faster skater. This just works on quick feet. Maybe your acceleration from the side... #1 thing to improve on to be faster at skating is your form in stride. Most people don't get enough contact surface with their stride (small steps) but everyone is different...

I do an 8oz of red bull (lite, sugar is not needed in my case) right before a skate and it tends to help. I'll even do one before a late game and just skate as hard as I can every shift to burn it off. I do need to get to sleep, eventually. Also, stay hydrated!!

@crazyredweazel 2 жыл бұрын

sadly hockey coaches do not have the proper skating background...hes seems like a great coach but what he teaches is wrong. you get grip from the edges of the full blade not the toes, the more blade on the ice the more weight and power you can transfer on the ice. thats why speedskater have long blades (more glide and more pressure on the ice). although hes right about skating on the same plane (sideways) kids need not to jump up while doing cross over they lose the pressure (power) they just put on the ice, you need indeed to move the knees quick but bent towards the direction you're going not up (like jumping farther to the side, not up). been coaching both hockey and short track speed skating for years now, all the players who come dab into speed skating end up being the fastest of their league because they're taught how to properly do weight transfer and effective crossovers skating nowadays make a whole difference in the NHL, top players are also great skaters think of mcdavid, makar, mackinnon, kaprizov etc.
