Bro this advice saved me

@@pigeonskates4564 no fr 5 years later and its the only advice thats actually helped

flyers10az me too

@@JuJu-vl2et use the back of the couch or counter or something, put your feet in this position and bend down using the couch or counter as support.

straddle stretches? pile squat?

I thought I had issues with flexibility as well, but found that if I corrected my posture and ensured my knees were properly bent with my chest up - it was muchhhh easier.

+Paul R Just try to become more flexible

think they are the same turn different names

yes

Probably not but it would look absolutely filthy if it dod

+Behe Beeh yeah xD if someone was skilled enough to pull this off that would be legendary! :) (Pavel Barber I'm looking at you)

i call them open toes

Yes

before i learned to do this, i had the same problem and it was a couple of things 1. i hadnt established very good balance on my skates yet 2. not using the low bent knees hockey stance this turn or move is all about balance as your skating on mostly 1 foot for a majority of the turn, or atleast when i do it i shift back and forth (still working on my balance)

I'm still getting the hang of it. Can't seem to go "Straight" though.

you really gotta bend your knees and open up your hips

Still Stuck like a butt.

***** I've been doing hip stretches for about a week now and they've helped immensely. Mostly Just butterflies and something called a "Pidgeon Pose" from yoga (google it)

kyle mALICK Try practicing without your skates on first... Then get out on the ice(or rink if you play roller hockey) and do it without moving like in this video, then try it moving slowly... Its going to feel really weird when you get it right, but it improves your reactions to plays on the ice/rink... Hope this helped :P

YO! What up past me!? We finally go it :D

This is so RAD!

Jeremy is a big lad. :)

Some arena’s have 3on3 rinks

i call it a rubber ducky

Flex ur leg a little so it stays in that position

I think that's due to the camera. It's just an optical illusion.

cadense it might also be an NTR (national training rink), they have tons of them in canada and theyre smaller rinks used specifically for training and rehab from an injury

Jordan Carpanzano , smaller rinks for TRAINING and REHAB ?????? No . It LOOKS small because of the seating in the stands . The SMALLER rinks are outside . Why would you use a NTR if they use a smaller rink ? Think about , it ain't hard !

i think this guys an idiot i was making a point meat stick

Jordan Carpanzano , And what " point ' were you trying to make ? That you don't know what you're talking ? The only one that's an idiot , is you , Jordan . Again , think about it . It ain't hard .

julie canfield It's neither nor, not neither or.

Buffalobill69ll x Why you Heff be so mad? It's only hockey game?

Dwight- you commented that you KNOW with 100% certainty "it's not called a " Mohawk turn ". It's a big world out there; way bigger than the tiny world you live in. Many things are given different names, and I wouldn't be so quick to say one name is right and another is wrong. If you google it, there's a gazillion references to the mohawk turn by ice & inline hockey folks AND figure skaters. They must be plain wrong, or maybe, you are. Your rambling about leg over leg (cross over stride?) makes no sense. Maybe - before you hit the submit button, re-read what you wrote, and as you said in another comment "think about it, it ain't hard".

Bruce Robinson , Blah , blah , blah . That's all you said . In figure skating , which , by the way , it's called " inline turn " , which , again , came from there . Look it up . It ain't hard , only if you want be , Bruce . Look up the power turn , Bruce . Talk about something you know about . It's what the Swedes did , back in the early '70's . It's a BIG wold , that is getting smaller . But , I guess that doesn't compute with you .

You said ask any figure skater! FIGURE SKATER! This is hockey! We call it a mohawk turn!

This is hockey, twinkle toes

Dwight Hill I don't think any possible sentence can have 6 commas.... SIX COMMAS IN ONE SENTENCE MAN WTF?!?!?!??!

Cool. Then don't watch or comment anymore on these videos please. These are for hockey players.

It's a fucking how to, of course he talks. Please think before you type next time.

These videos have been really helpful for me, I'm 21 and just started playing hockey three months ago. These videos along with hockey tutorial have been really big for my progress

I've been skating several times a week now for 6 months (I used to skate many years ago, but could not even plough stop) and these videos, not just from Jeremy and gang, are really useful. Several people have told me I am a good skater. I'm not, but I am improving. My best trick is a high speed backwards hockey stop, all thanks to KZfaq videos.

Believe it or not, this really helps people. I used to skate a little as a child but it was very basic. Now that I'm older I got into skating again. I often times saw people doing things that I wanted to do as well, but I just could not figure out how. And when you're not a 5 year old kid but a grown up, falling hurts way more (1.75m vs 0.75m is a big difference) so you want to avoid it as much as possible. KZfaq tutorials on how to skate have helped teach me how to slowly get used to the move and then do drills to get better. I'm shy and would never ask anyone at the rink for help, so these videos are great for me because I'm really making progress!

It took me 6 months to get to know some people at my local rink, but since then I have had lots of helpful advice. It takes time, but it is worth making the effort. Go regularly, and with luck you'll meet 'the gang'.

You're dumb as shit
