- Coach Matt of the Hockey Players Club and Quest Hockey provides a series of drills that will progressively help you master your outside edges.
Outside edges are really important for hockey players as they're key to perform turns, tight turns, escapes, crossovers, stops, and much more. Start simple and build.

Hey guys! Give these outside edge drills a try and let us know if you have any questions! Sorry about the audio quality - we're working to improve our tech skills. Thanks for checking us out!
sorry to be offtopic but does someone know a tool to get back into an Instagram account?
I somehow lost my account password. I love any tips you can give me
@Canaan Archer Instablaster :)
@Anthony Edison It did the trick and I actually got access to my account again. I'm so happy:D
Thanks so much, you saved my ass!
@Canaan Archer no problem :)
Great stuff. Best outside edge video I’ve seen so far. The others tend to get way too difficult way too quickly. Thanks!
Thanks, Phil! We like our players to take it one step at a time to develop control, efficiency, and confidence.
I agree! For DECADES I have skated on the inside edges with weak outside edges on crossovers. But your video shows the need to be able to balance statically and step on the outside edges BEFORE progressing to a "glide" (let alone a crossunder PUSH!). At my age, (yes, I'm old!), it's a little "scary" or intimidating to trust the edge on a glide without slipping! But more importantly, I never realized the need to keep the shoulder/hip line pointing to the CENTER of the circle or arc. Any rotation away from the center will cause a drift back to the inside edge. (Ask any figure skater!!). Again, thanks for starting the outside edge explanations FROM THE BEGINNING!
Wow, best video on outside edges! This video needs to go viral. Good teaching.
Thanks, Michael! We certainly wouldn't be mad if you shared it with your teammates and on reddit/facebook 😬
Finally. Someone mentions eyes looking where to go. Look through the turn. They all say head up, but never say where to look. Haven’t found a coach or skating video yet that mentions this until I found this one.
Thanks for noticing, Joe!
Best outside edge progression video I've seen. Looking forward to trying these out. Thanks!
This is awesome! I'm an adult who's just getting into hockey for the first time. Grew up skating, but realized recently that if you're just going to free skate you might spend your entire life skating on inside edges only. My outside edge balance is super weak, but I've been focusing on it a lot recently and this video is going to be my next rink companion. Thanks so much!
Great way to approach outside edges, step by step.
Thanks, Arnaud!
Awesome video!!!! Thanks. So many guys I play with are shocked that CZcams offers so many hockey instructional videos and how informative they are.
Happy to help, John, and thanks for watching!
I've watched a lot of outside edge videos on youtube. You've got an awesome take! Thanks much! You're doing a great job!
Thank you!! We have a lot of experience working with players, doing our best to break the skills down into digestible chunks. And we're grateful for the opportunity to share it with others. Thanks for watching and commenting 👊
Fantastic demo and great skills progression. Great video.
Thanks, Benjamin! Please let us know if there any other topics you'd like us to cover :)
Great set of drills, absolutely going to use all of them.
Thanks, John!
Great video, Coach. Looking forward to doing these drills with the Jr. Lions this season!
🙌
Awesome drills. I will be referring to this video for my exercises multiple times. Thank you!
Awesome pleasure, Nathan!
This video really made something click with resepct to Outside Edges- I now understand it on a Mental Level much better- THank you!
Love to hear it, Anthony! Thanks for watching and commenting.
Very good explication to learn that mouvement! I begone late to skate so i know how it's hard to learn IT👍
Thank you! Yes, outside edges are tough to learn but very necessary to be a good skater!
Nice
great video, thanks
Thanks for watching 👊
Really not bad!!
We'll take it! Lol
Good
Good video, well done… even if it’s a few years old still. 🎉
Would these work on inline skates too? I'm planning on trying anyway.
My son is just starting to play house league. His right skate is naturally falling on the outside edge when pushing/gliding. I do remind him to keep both skates on the inside edge but it naturally falls outwards when he's not mindful. Do you have any drills or exercises to correct that?
Nice edges you really no your crossovers and quick feet I am one of the fastest skater and best edges thanks for making me a better hockey player!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Happy we could help :) Thanks for watching!
Which part of the blade is supposed to be mainly used during the turns? Front or back? Thanks
The middle with a slight forward lean. It's important not to lean back, especially entering a cross over as you need weight on your front outside foot to initiate the cross over. If you're leaning back, you'll lack a knee bend, reducing your explosiveness and proper follow-through.
When your doing the big C cut glides, is the weight going into the heel when turning?
Yes
This guy knows his shit
Holy shit. Is that Ice castle from Pittsburgh Pennsylvania?
Coach a lot of little guys, awesome tips
Thanks, Anthony! What age do you coach?
09 and 07
@@anthonypaolini6879 great ages to coach! Whereabouts?
@@HockeyRecap I coach in the Greater Toronto Hockey League -GTHL

Учи русский. Молодец
Thank you!
Instructive video, however, there is a major point (to me) missing; weight distribution... I have visioned several of these tutorials, and they all seem to not indicate where the weight should be placed;
Either foot wise, but also skate wise. Let me explain where I am coming from; I am a roller skater, and I decided to do ice for a change of scenery. In roller, we tend to place our weight on the front of the skate. On ice, the weight needs to be on the back of the skate or central in some of the moves. Especially on cross overs.
It is the same principle when you learn to ski. They tell you how you need to transfer the weight to start a turn, or how you need to keep the weight balanced on both feet on fresh snow.
It all seems to be missing in these videos.
Thanks for the feedback. We teach our players to have their weight on the outside edge with a slight forward lean. Leaning back on your outside edge of your inside food entering a cross over will reduce your knee bend and follow through and therefore explosiveness of the cross over. It's important to be relatively balanced on your edges, front-to-back, with a slight forward lean. With a deep knee bend and weight on the outside edge of the front, inside foot, a player can explosively drive their outside edges outward.
@@HockeyRecap Great information! thanks... I will put that into practice tomorrow morning!
Can I even do this with tblades? I always slip away😂
😂 absolutely
Audio is making my ears bleed
Lol audio improvements coming!
