You are probably the best skater I've seen, so much skill it's amazing...but I think that also has a negative effect on a beginner because I feel like I can't even begin to do most of what you're explaining 😂

My daughter who is an adult now became a marathon runner and never was into watching or playing hockey.

  • @StillAliveAndKicking_
    @StillAliveAndKicking_ Před 3 lety +2

    When I first viewed this a few years ago, I could do none of the drills. Now I can do most of them, but I can still find plenty to help me improve further. The only area of disagreement is that my coach tells me not to lean my upper body in when doing crossovers. She also gets me doing lots of skating in a circle drills with only one leg moving to improve my crossovers. I’m not fast, but that’s because I’m old. Excellent video, I’m sure I’ll watch it more times.

    Dude, your tight turn tip was dead on! I thought going into a turn you needed to go soft on the cross overs out, which resulted in slow speed on the exit. Then, I watched your video about pushing HARD on the heels, so you hear it. Well I tried that, hard into the ice, pushed off fast, and the technique made my turn sharper and way faster. Great videos!

    Excellent instruction throughout. Very sound established standards and demonstrated as well as can be. He's on a much deeper cut (hollow) - perhaps 8/16 - to that of some of us who choose to go flatter 14/16, 15/16, 1", 1"+ which, in his case - his deep hollow - favors his deeper edging maneuvers/grip on the ice. The amount of hollow is, of course, personal preference, as well, player position. He should point out his established hollow and give a light general discussion on hollow influence, additionally demonstrate the influence of say a set of runners cut at 8/16 to another cut at 15/16, etc........................

  • @jasonrekker4328
    @jasonrekker4328 Před 5 lety +2

    Sean, fantastic video and instruction. Could you speak to the effect of radius of hollow when learning the stopping skills? I've found that most people trying to learn stopping, especially on the outside edges, are impeded by a ROH that is too deep. The skate bites too much, which makes finding the sweet spot when first learning far too difficult. Most folks go with the standard sharpening at their local pro shop which is usually 1/2" or close to that, which offers quite a bit of bite. Something like a 7/8" or 1" ROH I've found to be very helpful when learning the t-stop or outside edge stopping skills. I was in my 40's before I figured this out; wish someone had taught me a bit about this when I was first learning - would have accelerated my development much more quickly.

  • @S0larW1nd
    @S0larW1nd Před 4 lety +2

    Great video Sean!
    curious - on these 'half crossovers' also called 'running crossovers' do you just plan the foot down the ice or slam it with force? and also how far off to the toe is the weight? Assuming the full blade is on the ice is the weight completely off the heel?
    Since in normal crossovers the weight is firmly on the heel how do you prevent the blades form fishtailing if the weight is transferred to the toe?
    Any insight would be greatly appreciated!

For some reason I've never fully understood how to properly do cross-overs and I seem to only be able to do them to the right but to the left doesn't make sense to me lol. Backwards cross-overs are the same. Maybe I'm right brained I don't know lol.
