I have to commend you on your video, I replied to this 2 years back, since then I can do left and right hockey stops, outside plough, inside plough, eagle, toe-heel, penguin and nearly every other stop going. I now pass on this advice to others that are learning to skate at my local rink, and even show the figure skaters a thing or two who get stuck on their routines LOL! Respect!!!

Icehockey is just a beautiful sport. I started too late and couldn't make it to a professional, but I still play from time to time with my friends and watch some games, cause it's just art, how they play and move. Real man sport. Greetings from Switzerland !

@howtohockeydotcom. THANKS! Although it is summer here..can't wait to practice this coming winter..Yes most probably i have my weight on my front foot (scared of actually falling on my back side and hurt my back) and not tilting and carving the ice. I understand that i have to jump side to side....but i will try to figure out what you meant about sliding back and forth...i would assume that carving the ice as this break should do...thanks alot again! big help on that.

@guenwhywer Yes I do, with these skates I normally just bring them in and get them sharpened, but if they ask what type of edge I would get 7/16" The more bite you get the harder it would be to stop (for a beginner) If you think the edge is a problem then just rub the skate blade on some wood to take a bit of the edge off. I think it would be easier to learn with duller skates

@k54 No I put my whole body into the stop. If you just turn your lower body you will probably end up just turning, and then having your upper body follow. Just watch the full stop a few times to see how I turn my lower body and upper body. Just try some of the progression I show, use one foot to stop, one to balance until you get the hang of it.

@howtohockeytraining 14 жыл бұрын

@IcedFever Well that is the mental barrier that you must overcome to do the hockey stop, sometimes that is the hardest part! You could try holding onto the boards, with your one shoulder facing the board. Then push off sideways with one foot, and stop with the other. This might help you. I will show you what I mean in another video

@howtohockeytraining 14 жыл бұрын

@darnedsock You are probably not applying weight evenly to your back leg. If you put too much weight then it will dig in, and if you do not put enough it may "skip" on the ice. That is why I show myself stopping with just my front leg, although it looks hard, that is a good way to learn because it teaches you too put all your weight on your front foot. Then If you need to stop in a hurry then you can really dig in with both feet. Just do a few slow stops using both feet, then increase speed

I have only been skating here and there for a couple of years but I am a very natural learner. I can stop hard on ice, but only with my front foot. My back foot really is not involved. I don't know if it is mental or something technical I'm doing wrong. (I can do what is done at 0:50 but not after. I would love to be able to do only back foot...as most players do while lifting the front foot to step off the rink, for example) Do you have any advice besides skating more than twice a year?

@wbcsneo 13 жыл бұрын

@lolwtfnothing - Yeah everything I've learnt is self taught usually watching other skaters that are better, or they did something I wanted to learn, but I got wrong advice on hockey stops at the rink, hence I started looking on here cos' I knew something was wrong, stumbled across this guys technique, and within 10-30 mins of trying I did my first right-hander stop! SWEET! :)

@ishpoof Two things, you are putting too much weight on your front foot and probably not tilting your foot enough. Practice standing still and jump side to side, sliding back and forth, that will help you get a feel for the stop

To be honest I don't really know, They are a pair of nikes I got on sale about 4 years ago. I just use them for pond hockey now. I'm not really big on buying the newest equipment, it's a good way to spend a lot fo money, very minimal impact on your game.

just wanted to ask. How can basically skid like that? when i turn using my dominant foot, i just go straight turning. My momentum doesn't go straight. So instead of carving the ice, i just turn..and turn fast...and I end up falling down. should I tilt my skates further? Thanks for the tips.

i'vebeen working on my hockey stop for a while, but still can't seem to to get the motion down correctly. i'm not sure if it's the angle of my skate to the ice, the blade itself, or the pressure i'm applying on the ice when trying to stop. I've been working on the side boards to just shave ice and it's still just a really stiff feeling. is there any advice you could give for smoothing out my transition?

you have to use a outside edge as well as an inside edge to stop. whichever one you direction you chose to stop just remember to keep most of your weight on the leg that uses the outside edge and knees bent.

When I was kid I was able to do it but these days I cant. I think its because I am using bigger skates than I should. Could be this only the case? Always my skates starts to oscilate when I try it. I dont feel the stability on them. Just want to be sure that it is the case before I buy smaller size. So if someone have that experience please reply.

The problem you have, which is my roblem, is that I'm trying to turn in with too much pressure, especially more so if you tend to dig the back of the blade in, this can literally throw you into a bad spin if you're going too fast, start slow and do Plough stops first to get the feel (like this guy says), once you can plough stop, move to the one footer then start working on the back leg, the front leg is key to a hockey stop, the back leg is there for support/balance, nothing more.

@greenzoid2 11 жыл бұрын

when you do it you also need to lean away in the opposite direction that your momentum is going. Itll take a little leap of faith the first time you do it because it will probably seem like you will fall over, but with the momentum you have going straight, leaning in the opp direction will not let you fall, until you are stopped. At that point you lift your skates and place them back underneath your body so you arent leaning anymore.
