Cool video thanks! I’m 50 years old and for the first time in my life I’m learning how to ice skate and play hockey. I’m doing both at the same time. Diving right into the abyss. All these little things I need to learn. I don’t even know the rules of hockey. But I’ll get there. I’m looking at this as being a rest of my life passion.
Enjoy the sport!
I sure hope you do! Hockey is so fun!
How's it going a year in, Joseph?
Thanks a million. Never did it before but got to be my son's hero tonight!!!
I know how to tape a stick but these videos are so satisfying to me XD

I take a strip and run it along the bottom of the blade, folding it onto both sides, then wrap it toe to heel. Gives a little bit of extra lift.
Does it really lift the puck more? Im curious
I usually tape in a weird manner. I do the toe to heel method, but I start out first by putting a strip along the bottom of the blade, then tape around the blade. I also use a puck afterwards instead of the roll of tape to smooth out the creases as this also brings out the glue a bit turning the normal stick tape into a sticky tape of sorts. I like the extra tacky feeling but dislike using friction tape.
First time player. Joined a ball hockey league. Thank you for posting this :)
This video is really cool, good job! this video helps every hockey player know something new about hockey every time! thank you for the great videos!
Thanks for this. Taping my 6 yr olds stick for the first time, this is very helpful!
Yeah usually foam tape is used for the grip to give you a nice cushioned feel, I don't think anyone uses it for the blade. Stick wax is used on the blade to keep the snow from building up and it also gives you a lot more grip, some guys put it on thick and the puck practically sticks to their blade.
Hey ! Im from Germany , so I watch german Ice Hockey in the DEL. Since I was born. A month ago , I decided to buy a stick, and learn to play hockey at home. This channel is so nice , just amazing ! And that video you explained very well :D Greetings from Germany :)
the_bronco _neo you were born a month ago?
Good on you for making these videos. I tape my stick heel to toe, with almost no overlap and end the tape on the back hand leaving the toe exposed. I find an exposed toe is faster for toe drags. I always put a quick a strip of tape along the bottom because the little overlap wears down quickly and the last thing you want is another broken heel.
Today's the first time I'm taping my first stick (the first time it was taped was on the store I bought it). Thank you very much for this. You earned a new suscriber !!
im a new player this helps a ton
You prob can’t play I don’t know about you now but I carry my team now your prob amazing
Did you stick with hockey 5 years later lol
Thanks! This helped out a lot!
I love these types of videos
thanks for your advice it was amazing.
Thanks this is a great video I'm just starting hockey and this helped me
@19shanedoan19 That is a good idea with the white tape during practice. I am pretty sure I heard Gretzky say the same thing about white tape, that is why I mentioned it in the video.
I tried the extra strip on the bottom but I don't like the feel.
Thanks for the comment
@BladeTapeCA actually yeah, :) You guys sent me some at the end of last season and I tucked it away to do a review of this year. I have it on my back-up stick, it's super grippy and has held up nicely. I had to adjust a bit at first though as it gripped the puck more than I was used to and the puck flipped over when I was moving the puck quickly from one side to the other.
Thanks again for these awesome videos!
Taping low on the shaft like you were talking about in the end of the video not only helps with preventing chips and cracks but also helps with grip for players who like to choke up on the stick for face offs.
i love watching people tape hockey sticks. it's just so satisfying. (:
Puck Bunny?
That's why I'm watching this even tho I've seen it before
its just satisfying to watch...
Thank you for helping me tape my first stick.
Thank you a lot for this 🙏
Thank you for that video!
So you don’t know how to tape??
After buying sticks with relatively straight blades for most of my life, I finally bought one with a pretty dramatic curve on it. I can't seem to tape it right. I think Ray Charles could do better. I have no idea what I am doing wrong but the tape always ends up asymmetrical to the rest of the tape on blade as well as bubbles a lot on the top where I wrap it over. Any insight would be helpful.
Just taping my first stick here man and pretty simple yet informative! Thanks for the vid.
Thx for teaching me how to tape a hockey stick
Great tutorial. Thanks!
Hey Jeremy can you do a video on how to tape the toe part of the blade. Thanks.
Thanks so much had no idea, youre a lifesaver
you got awesome videos! subscribed!
I do it pretty much the same, start from the toe for the same reason as he explained. Cover the whole blade though from the tip of the toe and very thin overlaps, 2-3 millimeters, feels like i´m getting a better feeling for the puck that way
Is this just for ice hockey or also for street hockey?
I’m new playing street hockey. My stick is FULLY wooden.
Hey Coach, using a lot of your videos to learn this hockey stuff. Looking at True or Verbero gloves. Opinion? Nowhere here I can try them on
You method is kind of a cool idea, toe to heel, so the puck doesn't pull the tape off, but I always found that you get way more snow buildup that way, which is why I go heel to toe.
thx this is very useful
Thank you!
For inline hockey, when I play outside on cement rinks, I'll use good quality duct tape on the blade, particularly the bottom edge to make it last. It may not be "cool" enough for some of you kids, but it grips fine and lasts longer than hockey tape ... and I don't have to spend $20 a month or so on tape due to the cement wearing thru your cloth tape pretty quickly.
Playing indoor on tile you don't have near the amount of wear as on a cement rink, so cloth holds up fine.
awesome video
I did not know how I should tape a hockey stick but now I know how to
Toe to heel, with a couple of layers of tape on the bottom of the blade under the wrapping for protection (I'm poor). I also, instead of running the roll along the wrapped blade, use a puck because it seems to make it stickier and the puck doesn't seem to come off my stick when I am playing.
I tape my stick from full toe to half blade. I feel that helps with spin on wrist shots and snapshots
I just bought a CCM Ribcore with baked in grip on the blade. Should I still tape it? I’m only using it for ice
thnx it help alot
great video
Excellent
Thank you, bro!
Nice tutorial! Would you recommend taping the heel or not if you plan on doing a lot of slapshots? My stick has its curve mid-heel, so that's why I ask.
Thank you for showing me to tape by stick
I go from heal to toe and tape on the toe
THANK YOU !
Diamond pattern on the blade has somehow worked great for me. Meaning there’s a bare diamond shape on the blade with the tape making the edges. There’s about 3 tiny diamonds on my blade and idk why it works but it does.
i like to tape my bauer vapor x700 LE like ovie. from toe to heel covering all of the toe. it also made my choise easier for taping because i have the same shaped blade that Ovie does!
ovi doesn't tape it toe to heel, he tapes it toe to the mid-blade
Thank you!!! :)
What brand of tape should I use. What kinds do u use
thanks bro!
thanks man I wish it was winter because thats when I need to know that
This was posted on my birthday!!!!!
I use thick white tape and start where ovie starts then I go up a little bit it’s like the tape job Jamie Benn does it helps me with my slap shots since I am a defenseman
why is taping hockey sticks so satisfying
I thought I was the only one XD
I do mine Heal to toe. I think the ice will do more damage when I'm dragging it then a puck will when slides against the blade. c:
OMG, good thing I taped my stick from Toe to Heel before I even watch this video.. I did the right thing taping my stick just like Jeremy.
Thanks :D
Can you show me how to take a slap shot on the ice I keep on falling down
I like to tape all the way to the toe ( full toe) starting at the heel of the blade with white tape because it gives me really good grip whenever I lead a rush into the offensive zone. As foe the white i just like it cause it has a certain NHL player look. thanks good video too.
Heel to toe collects no snow. Toe too heel is sure to peel. Personally I go heel to toe but you probably prefer toe to heel. That's not bad either.😉
Imagine
I start at heel to toe and I tape it around the tip plus WHITE TAPE IS BETTER IN THE FIRST PLACE!!!!
Thank you from korea
Thanks.
Watched this vid how to do it have done it the same ever sense good vid recommend it
i tape frome heel to toe but i do a 50-50 overlap and i do it as precise as i can so its really smooth
tape as a protective measur for the stick, i appreciate that bit of validation, haha
I recommend double-sided tape.
😱😱
@@trollloloololooo yea how do you swing?
Tysm
I tape my stick like u did I actually watched this vid when I taped mine and the nob too so great job on the videos and my friend said to tape the middle of the stick for the slap shot grip can u make a vid on that to if possible and thanks
Awesome job. Now I just need to find left handed tape.
i do this but i also tape the toe as well, kinda like what voracek does
You rock at hockey but you rock
Wich tape do you use?
Nice
What kind of tape do you use cause there many brands which is best or you prefer.
Kyleigh Fields You should more than likely use Howies. Their tape is amazing.
I do it.that very good
I go heal to twoe and use half black tape and half white tape and it looks pretty lit
i just started hockey and im a D man so and i prefer wrister's so i'm going to tape one full blade and the other the end half to see how i like it
Thx
Love your vids....i tape my stick toe to heal half way..i like taping my stick half way it looks cool... :)
tanks
Black or blue tape for my Bauer Supreme One.5 shaft/TotalOne PM9 junior blade combo; black tape only on my Nike Bauer Vapor IX; white tape on wooden sticks.
No knob OR electrical tape 2mm knob. 3-4" tape at top of shaft, 3/4" at about 4/5 of the way down the shaft because that's where my lower hand goes on a slapshot. Up to but not exceeding 2" on the sweet spot on the blade. I wouldn't even tape if it weren't compulsory haha
@CanucksKeslerFan I just picked up an Ai7 and I love it.
Can you use wide hockey tape for the knob for your stick?
black tape, toe to heel and i def. tape the lower part of the shaft. got to protect my stick!
what stick is that it looks sick!!!!!
I tape my blade heel to toe and I cover the toe. The reason for this is because the toe of my blade starts to chip away faster without it. It still does with the full tape job, but when it does I think the tape helps keep moisture out of the cracks. Do other players get the same problem? I usually have to re-tape after one game and one practice when the tape wears off on the heel half of the bottom. Thanks for the videos.
I tape it the same way, the puck would create friction if you taped it from heel to toe, and you wouldn't get a nice smooth, hard shot off.
Yup, I love your name too FLYERS NATION
I only tape toe to heal half way covering the toe. For my grip I use my goz and go around three times and do a candy cane ( not all the way)
I do the same thing as you.... Helps have a good shot. It's just I use white a lot non black hockey sticks
toe to heel and im trying out the sock style tomorrow
hey jeremy,
What's the curve of your stick?
